Abstract

<p>In the education of health professionals, understanding the patients’ feelings and experiences is related to the professionals’ essential “empathic care,” and it is considered to be fundamental in medical professionalism. However, patients’ perspectives vary as it is based on the individual’s experience. Also, the views of patients are significantly different even within the same disease group. Therefore, no generalized “patient perspective” exists. In addition, how to integrate patient viewpoints and values with the process of shared decision making is also a major clinical problem. In this article, we suggest the current issues from the interdisciplinary viewpoints of the co-authors around “patient perspectives,” the term which tends to be uniformly but superficially understood. Thus, we discuss critical issues that should be paid attention to in the medical education when we train health professionals who can consider patient viewpoints.</p>
