What happens if a doctor and patient both fall in love with each other and start a relationship? Is it ok as long as the patient changes doctors before starting the relationship? Would this doctor still be struck off even though it was a mutual decision? Are these medical ethics that tight these days?

Sounds creepy to me. Especially if it was an OBGYN.

it truly is stunning the massive adjustments between medical doctors. I particularly have 3, OBGYN, Internist, and Orthopedic - all of them behave in a lot an identical way. even as they arrive into the studying room they talk as inspite of the truth that i'm their in reality affected man or woman, in no way in a hurry (a minimum of it type of feels so) and in no way go away until eventually all questions are requested and replied to my pride. besides the undeniable fact that, all of their workplaces are finished and their sufferers love them, none of them are previous, overdue 30's-mid 40's so as that they don't come from the former college. i don't experience like only a range and a fashion of having a clean vehicle or large holiday. My moms well being care service, on the different hand, is abrupt and many cases chatting with a salesclerk or nurses contained in the hallway or talking on the phone jointly he's with her. i understand, I particularly were to some those appointments. Questions are literally not replied or treated as inspite of the truth that she could already understand the answer. I particularly have inspired her to hunt yet another one which practices close to her living house because driving is a issue for her. i'm so grateful for all of mine.

If the patient leaves the that practice before anything happens then the doctor will be fine because he has maintained a doctor/patient relationship - if he hasn't maintained it then yes he or she could get into serious trouble

I would say that just as long as the patient switches doctors, there is no problem... if there is no dr-patient relationship, then they are just two people who fall in love.

Yes, it's OK in the circumstances in your question. The doctor has done the honourable thing in no longer treating the patient, so there's no problem.
We still live in a fee country, believe it or not!

i would think that as long as you change doctors there would be no issues, and shouldnt be any in the first place unless he is abusing his power as a doctor to do things he shouldnt like perscribe drugs for his significant other that are uneeded, or screwing around in the office, those kind of things...but im no doctor,
