        The value of medical humanistic spirit, for each doctor, first is the fear of life, then fear of patients, because their health and even life entrust to you.

        Held recently, the xiamen city in fujian province in order to "promote the medical humanities spirit, build the doctor-patient harmonious" as the theme of the training course, xiamen health bureau chief Yang Shuyu in class class that worsen, an increasingly tense doctor-patient relationship is an important source of technology and humanities fracture, therefore, "to do with human healer".

        Recently, China's famous expert in medical humanities, medical humanities research center of Peking University professor Wang Yifang in an interview with the media, tells a true story: a farmer to a doctor to the hospital and ask the three level of the registration fee, after hang up a the most expensive, straight asked reason, the farmer said, "hang the most cheap, don't let me speak, mid-range price, don't listen to me, only hang the most expensive, not only let me speak, and listen to me."

        Consider the farmer's words, the experience of contact with a lot of people see the doctor again, indeed the case. In some big cities, patients often row a all night to get the number, the doctor to see a doctor in a few minutes over, want to communicate with doctors fully patient has become a "luxury". This is some drawbacks with the current medical system has a lot to do, but also reflects the serious lack of medical humanities.

        For a long time, in the face of doctor-patient contradiction between the people more and more from the problems existing in the health care system, such as the unequal, asymmetric information, the doctor-patient relationship as well as hospitals and doctors are enveloped such perspective to analysis and interpretation of various interests. But the problem is, with health care, medical technology level continuously improve, medicine separate scope expands unceasingly, various inspection fees and drug prices falling, why still have not completely eliminate the doctor-patient dispute, sometimes I behave very fierce?

        Modern medicine and the ancestors of wave granite bottom once said: "the doctor has three big magic weapon: language, drugs, and a scalpel." In his view, the good communication, good communication is the best treatment. Unfortunately, there are now some doctors away before the first big magic weapon. The country during the two sessions this year, as the vice minister of health and clinical medicine experts Huang Jiefu, when it comes to the doctor-patient relationship repeatedly told doctors: the younger generation "to seek truth from facts, magnanimous and patient communication, learn the art of doctor-patient communication, to let the patients know medicine is not a perfect science."

        Medicine is not a perfect science, have certain limitations and risks. Relative diseases, medicine is a science lag, also because of this, only perfect medical humanities is particularly important. Only medical humanities is perfect, can minimize the medicine itself is not perfect. Medical study, or benevolence is the essence of medical humanistic spirit value, in terms of each doctor, the first is the fear of life, because life belongs to everyone, and only once; Then the fear of patients, because their health and even life entrust to you.

        Doctor's professional characteristics, determines its negative and upload to some extent embodies the spirit of the social moral bottom line. As a result, doctors must always keep care of medical humanities is not only to let every one prescription there is love, also realized that should begin from the deep heart's core, to give patients more explanation, more communication, more sweet smile.
