Optimal Health

The doctor-patient relationship was the origin of Medicine and after more than 40 centuries, the medical act, with its important changes, is still the centre of this Medicine that is, more than ever, science and art. Knowing these changes allows us to maintain the quality of the doctor-patient relationship and optimal health care. XXI century´s Medicine uses all the technological advances taking benefits for the medical act; the best example has been the introduction of Telemedicine. Bringing technology, computing and digitalization to a purely human relationship is not exempt from risks; it will be necessary to identify them and eliminate the disadvantages that all this may mean as an element contrary to humanity that must always characterize the medical act and health care. Objectives of Medicine science-and-art must become one in the use of Telemedicine at each personalized medical act.
