En el ámbito de la educación médica existen muchas y diferentes definiciones de profesionalismo médico (1). Sin embargo, se acepta de una manera general que “es cumplir con excelencia y responsabilidad con los deberes y atributos del profesional” (2). Una definición que nos acerca más al detalle es la presentada por Swick: “El profesionalismo médico
consiste en aquellas conductas mediante las cuales nosotros como médicos demostramos que somos dignos de la confianza que nos otorgan nuestros pacientes y el público, porque estamos trabajando por el bien de los pacientes y del público.
Si no demostramos que merecemos esa confianza, se perderá y, por lo tanto, se perderá el estatus de la medicina como
profesión” (3).
