Key Points | A comparison between the attitudes of USA and UK doctors to a range of ethical and professional issues including their interactions with colleagues they knew to be impaired or incompetent (16-18%) Sheds some light on why doctors don't deal very well with such colleagues including the interesting and (for the UK) odd and disconcerting statistic that while 72.4% of USA doctors report that they would cease referring patients to such colleagues only 17.2 % would be inhibited in the UK |
