Responding to the Patient Who Has AIDS.

Koop, C. Everett

Academic Medicine, v64 n3 p113-15 Mar 1989

The tradition of medicine is that physicians do not abandon the sick, whoever they are and whatever they have done. Support must be provided to the individual physician, ensuring that everyone in the profession is informed about AIDS and makes necessary adjustments of behavior and commitment. (Author/MLW)
