Alexander the Great Trusts Doctor Philip

#medicine #alexandriana #art | This masterpiece by Siemiradzki recalls several critical aspects of the unbreakable link of the patient-physician relationship, which is the first step of the healing process. As contemporary medicine continues to progress through the exponential growth of new technologies, new diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, big data analysis, machine learning, and telemedicine, we live a time when several external factors threaten this eternal relationship. The echoes that come to us from Alexander of Macedon’s world provide a beacon of hope and humanity in a rapidly changing world, showing that the patient-physician relationship will continue to endure.
