Urologist William Lynes discusses his article, " The decline of the doctor-patient relationship ." William explains why he believes this relationship, the critical center of medical care, is broken after 40 years of insidious deterioration. He argues that physicians (including himself) gradually relinquished control of clinical decisions, allowing non-clinicians, committees, and government agencies to take over. William discusses how this loss of physician autonomy and the rise of medical bureaucracy have led to delayed, inefficient, and frustrating patient care. This is a call for physicians to "claw back" control of the health care system. Learn why restoring this relationship is the only hope for the future of American medicine.
