ABSTRACT

With the modernization of healthcare and management of a Hospital as a bussiness, There is the risk of changing the words “patient” and “doctor” into “client” and “provider”, risking the humanitarian care, thrustworthiness, and doctor-patient relationship. Using first and last names could be an option for communication.
