DIAZ AMADO, Eduardo. THE PHILOSOPHY OF MEDICINE, THE NEED FOR A CRITICAL PERSPECTIVE IN COLOMBIA: A NECESSIDADE DE UMA PERSPECTIVA CRÍTICA NA COLÔMBIA. rev.latinoam.bioet. [online]. 2017, vol.17, n.1, pp.102-123. ISSN 1657-4702. https://doi.org/10.18359/rlbi.2018.
Philosophy of Medicine is an interesting field of study concerned with issues and problems that are philosophically relevant in practice and research in Medicine. However, although Philosophy of Medicine enjoys recognition in other latitudes, in Colombia it has received little attention, in particular, because of the rise of bioethics, which has overshadowed other kinds of reflections on the medical task. In this paper, departing from an overview about the formation of the field, it is argued that a Critical Philosophy of Medicine should be promoted as a deep and critical reflection on the genesis and possible way outs to the crisis that the healthcare system and the medical profession have experienced in Colombia in the last two decades. A Critical Philosophy of Medicine must then contribute to training physicians and health professionals to be able to transform the ethos of their professions as well as of the health care services.
