In this deeply reflective episode, Dr. John Patrick explores how the practice of medicine transformed from a trust-based relationship rooted in moral principles to a science-focused system that has lost public confidence. He traces this evolution from the Hippocratic physicians who prioritized trust and moral commitment, through the medieval reintroduction of Greek learning, to modern medicine's emphasis on empirical data over ethical foundation. Dr. Patrick examines how the removal of transcendent beliefs and biblical principles from medical education has created a crisis of trust, and suggests that the church may need to reclaim its historical role in healthcare.
