Physician/patient relationship
Every doctor has a duty to reasonably care for and treat his or her patient, and a violation of that duty is medical malpractice. The core of the physician's duty comes from the existence of a physician/patient relationship, without which a claim of malpractice cannot be made despite the fact that a patient has suffered an injury. The law recognizes that a very special relationship exists between a doctor and his patient, creating the physician's duty of trust and fidelity to all those he treats. The law also recognizes that a patient who has been injured by a doctor while in this special relationship may be able to recover for his injuries.
