Abstract:
Practicing doctors see things differently from bioethicists, argues David L Schiedermayer, in his response to Cameron's essay. Patient autonomy and informed consent figure more importantly in ethical debate than they do in actual practice. Clinicians work with a practical ethic of beneficence that is directly related to diagnosis and treatment.
