Letter.

.
Letter Published in The National.uae on 25.May11.Your story with the headline Doctors banned after turning patients into addicts (May 24) was sad to read.
The practice of medicine is supposed to be a noble profession, one which is focused on alleviating the suffering of humanity.
Incidents such as this one are simply unethical. Before starting their careers, doctors take the Hippocratic Oath, vowing to serve patients, to reduce their pain and to do no harm.
As far as I am concerned, the majority of doctors are doing a wonderful job, but this service and this incident is unacceptable.
