Introduction
As in any legal relationship, there is a debtor and creditor
relationship between the doctor and the patient. In this legal
relationship, the doctor is obliged to undertake the promised
medical intervention, and the patient is obliged to pay the agreed
fee to the doctor. Within the scope of this relationship, the
doctor's legal and criminal liability may arise in the event of
any harm suffered by the patient due to misconduct or negligence.
Within the scope of this legal liability, the doctor would be
obliged to indemnify the patient's pecuniary and non-pecuniary
damages in proportion to his/her fault and negligence. In order to
resolve a dispute in this regard, firstly, the relationship between
the parties shall be determined, and the facts of the dispute are
to be revealed.
