The patient
The patient is the physician's main objective.

It involves understanding their mental and psychological state, the environment in which they live, their beliefs, their family environment and their affective relationships.
It is also essential that the family members understand the disease, as they will be an important pillar in the treatment of these patients.
Simplifying patient care is making it incomplete. Knowing how to see all the complexities of being, gives the doctor the necessary support to provide comprehensive care to the patient.
