Abstract

Hubungan antara dokter dan pasien dilandasi rasa kepercayaan sehingga pasien bersedia menceritakan segala hal tentang penyakitnya. Informasi yang diketahui oleh dokter pada saat melakukan pemeriksaan maupun segala sesuatu yang diceritakan oleh pasien tersebut dikenal sebagai rahasia kedokteran dan wajib disimpan. Dokter akan menghadapi situasi yang dilematis jika kewajiban untuk menyimpan rahasia kedokteran ini dihadapkan dengan kewajiban dokter yang lain yaitu memberikan bantuan hukum sebagai saksi ahli di persidangan.The relationship between a doctor and patient based on a sense of trust so that the patient is willing to tell everything which is related to illness. All information that known by the doctor at the time of examination as well as those information that  described by the patient are known as medical secrets. They must be kept as secret. Doctors will face a dilemma situation if the obligation to keep medical secret is confronted with other obligations that provide legal aid as an expert witness in court.
