Popis: Conflict between patient and health care professionals is increasing over time. Traditionally, the medical profession has been considered the most honourable profession and the professionals are held with great esteem as they are considered next to God. Unfortunately, there seems to have been developed a distinct discord between the patient and the health care professional relationship with disturbing incidents catching the headlines. These conflicts range from simple disagreements to major violence against the very people who are trying to undertake patient’s care. Ultimately, it is in the best interest of both the patient and the health care professional to have a harmonious relationship based on utmost trust which is the very keynote of mutual understanding resulting in the benefit both of them. Authors are now trying with deep sincerity for mitigation of distrust and exploring possible resolution strategies to apply in clinical practice in order to overcome them.
