Abstract

The research examined the attitude of the doctor to the refusal of 70 cancer patients being treated at five onocological institutes in Israel to accept chemotherapy. A connection was found between the doctor's attitude on the one hand and the diagnosis, level of illness and patient's age on the other. In other words, the doctor will not attempt to persuade every patient who refuses chemotherapy to accept the treatment.
