One of the most important aspects of the medical profession is the degree of excellence that a doctor can display in the results. However not every doctor is expected to deliver same results. But there is a basic minimum standard of service which every doctor must provide. It is important is that the doctor acts and discharges the duties in such a manner as would be expected from a prudent doctor in a similar situation having access to similar facilities and having the same medical knowledge.
Doctors owe certain duties to their patients. The doctor owes a primary duty of reasonable care. Doctors despite their good intentions, skill and training, may commit mistakes. They are humans after all. Medical profession demands doctors to be attentive, competent, and careful in administering their services. The lives of people are at stake.
