Insight . . .


(from https://www.statnews.com/2018/06/28/goldwater-rule-broken-psychiatrists/)
". . . The . . . Goldwater rule . . . was created in response to a 1964 survey conducted by the editors of Fact magazine. They asked 12,356 psychiatrists, “Do you believe Barry Goldwater is psychologically fit to serve as President of the United States?” Some of the answers printed in the magazine clearly reflected bias. The episode chastened the APA, which established the rule in 1973. . . The Goldwater rule exalts the doctor-patient relationship. But here’s rub: Unless the public figure in question happens to be your patient, there is no doctor-patient relationship. Across other branches of medicine, it is commonplace for physicians to offer insight when a public figure’s medical condition is in the news. Orthopedists weigh in on the star quarterback with a high ankle sprain; cardiologists on a political candidate who has a fainting spell. Everyone knows that the physician is not making a definitive diagnosis, but is instead helping the public understand the implications of a condition that is within the specialist’s domain. . ."
