Chapter 4 of the MCI Act talks about the responsibilities of physicians to each other and states as follows A physician should consider it as a pleasure and privilege to render gratuitous service to all physicians and their immediate family dependents. 4.2 Conduct in consultation In consultations no insincerity rivalry or envy should be indulged in. All due respect should be observed towards the physician in charge of the case and no statement or remark be made which would impair the confidence reposed in him. For this purpose no discussion should be carried on in the presence of the patient or his representatives.
