Abstract

The publication by the General Medical Council of its Good Medical Practice rules and guidance which received extensive coverage in the UK media, has highlighted the issue of patient-practitioner professional relationships and what is considered acceptable or unacceptable behaviour. The author of this article currently serves as the British Acupuncture Council's Professional Conduct Officer. She writes to alert practitioners to the genuine problems that exist in patient-practitioner relationships, and to prompt them to consider whether their conduct, and that of their patients, is within acceptable boundaries.
