The Holistic Approach to Female Cancer Patients

Abstract

For years, the doctor has fundamentally been an autonomous professional figure. He took care of his patients, carried out diagnostic investigations, and did the autopsies hen the inevitable happened—a clinician and a pathologist practically united in one single person. Then, the growth of knowledge, which has taken place in recent years, has profoundly modified the structure of the medical class so that currently, the profession is characterized by the existence of numerous specialties and subspecialties. This has been followed by the creation of distinct professional figures, clinician on the one hand and pathologist on the other, which has contributed in large measure to the growth of knowledge in medicine, which has resulted in large benefits in contrast to some minor problems. In this regard, separating the fields of specialization has determined, in reality, separation of the culture and the language, creating a deep rift. Unfortunately, there are numerous realities, in which the clinician and the pathologist operate in different structures, and therefore, interact very little or not at all.
