Question: Can a doctor date outside the patient population?

Are doctors allowed to date each other?

Scrubs Magazine went so far as to call nurses dating doctors a myth, painting a no-win outcome for nurses involved. Yes, nurses and doctors do date each other, but not nearly on the scale that Hollywood would have you believe, it said.

Is it unethical for a doctor to date a patient?

The American Medical Associations (AMAs) Code of Ethics states: Sexual contact that occurs concurrent with the patient-physician relationship constitutes sexual misconduct. It is unethical for a physician to become sexually involved with a current patient even if the patient initiates or consents to the contact.
