Abstract

‘The art of medicine’ is a commonly discussed topic in clinical medicine. It is that aspect of medical practice which makes the physicians more humane over medical scientists. Though frequently reminded by the teachers in academic environment, in a developing country like Bangladesh, the art of medicine is barely practised at any level of care. An effort is made in this article to depict the practice of medicine in developing countries mostly devoid of art, the reasons behind, and some suggestions.
