Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a physician-patient partnership, the patient should actively participate in their own care and decision making. The physician acts as a consultant who provides medical expertise and guidance to the patient, but ultimately the patient has the final say in their own health decisions. Therefore, option D is the correct answer. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately represent a true physician-patient partnership.
