Doctors today face many issues that relate to the integrity of their profession, which challenge their ability to retain control of medical practice and achieve best patient outcomes. All healthcare professionals have a responsibility to identify, understand, and to deal with innovation and change. Modern-day doctors and medical practice directors need skilled professionals on their team to optimize best healthcare outcomes. Dr. Pietro Emanuele Garbelli is a skilled and experienced physician who has written a book, ‘The Doctor’s Future’, to guide and assist all people who work in modern-day healthcare to successfully navigate its ever-increasing complexity.
The author directs our attention to the challenge of digital tools that incorporate assistive AI technologies, and robotics. The book investigates the pitfalls and the potential benefits of using “intelligent’ digital tools that deliver complex medical data and related information to the treating professional. It explores the logistics, and the ethics, of using robotic devices to perform diagnostics and medical procedures on the doctor’s behalf.
The book provides practical advice and wisdom, offers pathways towards solutions. In particular, the author offers the “Healthcare Convergence Framework” TM, and consultative assistance, to support individual and wider practice needs. This book is a potential catalyst for the creation of an organic professional development model for the whole profession, with capacity to evolve over time. There is work to be done on creating the foundations today. The more doctors engage with and co-operate in an exchange of knowledge and ideas, the better their position will be when confronted by new, as yet unknown, medical issues that impact upon professional control and responsibility.
There is opportunity for great advancement in the medical field, but doctors have the right to be cautious when dealing with new technologies. There is a need for mutual trust and co-operation. Transparency, knowledge, and informed responsible judgement will be the keys to a successful doctor’s future. A unified doctor’s ‘voice’ will be the most powerful and effective tool that the medical profession can develop and use to maintain integrity, professional status and agency.
