What are the rights and duties of the medical practitioner and the rights of their patients?

Medical practitioners have the duty to provide competent, ethical care, maintain patient confidentiality, and obtain informed consent before any treatment. They must act in the best interest of their patients while also respecting their autonomy. Patients have the right to receive clear information about their diagnosis and treatment options, to make informed decisions about their care, and to expect confidentiality regarding their medical information. Additionally, patients have the right to seek a second opinion and to refuse treatment if they choose.
