There are unprecedented challenges arising for the medical profession from the changing expectations of patients, government and managers. Doctors remain 'professionals' but the traditional image of what this means in practice is increasingly outdated. While individual doctors remain highly trusted, the profession as a whole needs to demonstrate better its duty to serve patients' interests and to show that it can respond to changing public and political expectations. To sustain and build trust in the profession, doctors need to ensure that their practice reflects the behaviour expected of them. This paper examines recent challenges to the profession, explores how a new compact between key stakeholders might be formed, and offers a way forward to redefining medical professionalism for the future.
