It is a doctor's duty to observe the rules of professional secrecy strictly by refraining from disclosing voluntarily to any third party information concerning a patient, that he has learned in the course of his professional practice. Greece is a European Union country with its own tradition, history, culture and beliefs but without political and legislative experience in the statutory handling of medical matters. This paper aims to give emphasis to the obligation of confidence in the area of medical practice and to discuss the legal issues likely to be raised in relation to the current state of Greek legal order.
医生有责任严格遵守职业保密规则,避免自愿向任何第三方披露其在专业实践过程中了解到的有关患者的信息。希腊是一个拥有自己的传统、历史、文化和信仰的欧盟国家,但在医疗事务的法定处理方面没有政治和立法经验。本文旨在强调医疗实践领域的保密义务,并讨论与希腊法律秩序现状相关可能引发的法律问题。
