The physician-patient relationship is very important in the development of medical practice, and it depends greatly diagnosis, treatment and outcomes. However we notice that some cultural aspects such as level of education of the child’s parents, new communication technologies, using the latest technology for diagnosis and treatment, patient care by private insurance, marketing practice medical malpractice claims; negatively affect this relationship, the risk of losing the respect and mutual trust are essential requirements to get healthy and also avoid misunderstandings that may generate legal medical problems.
