Private or intimate relations between doctor and patient: is zero tolerance warranted?

W Spiegel1, T Colella, P Lupton.   

Abstract

This article reviews and comments on the five categories of arguments used to defend zero tolerance with regard to sexual contacts resulting from the physician-patient relationship as summarised by Cullen. In addition it puts forward a hypothesis-"fear of loss by third party"-as a psychological explanation for the collective insistence on a zero tolerance policy.
