Скачать или смотреть Attorney’s Take: A Doctor’s Duty Is to Stay—Agree or Disagree?

In a crisis, instinct takes over.

In our recent podcast, we explored the difficult question: What would you do in a life-threatening situation in a hospital?

Some physicians said they would run. Others said they would stay and fight.

A listener pushed back, arguing that physicians have a duty to protect patients—even at the risk of their own lives. But is that truly part of the oath we take?

A physician’s duty is to provide care, to do no harm—but is it to die for their patients? We don’t expect attorneys, firefighters, or even airline pilots to sacrifice themselves in every situation. Should doctors be different?

We’d love to hear your thoughts. What would you do? Drop a comment below. ⬇️
