Abstract

The “Mater Care” Group, which brings together the Obstetricians and Gynecologists of the International Federation of Catholic Medical Associations, was pleased to dedicate its biannual session in 2019 to the analysis of the decision to be a doctor today, wondering if it is still a vocation, as it has always been considered, or has become an attraction to the development and application of new technologies and the management of other values that give more importance to the success of the technique than to the humanization of patient care. It was not in vain that Mgr. Redrado, OSJD wrote: our Hospitals are, today, temples of science and technology, and many times they are not focused on the patients but on other interests, to the point that research seems to go beyond them. The big question that arises is: Should we do everything that science and technology offers us today? Does science have limits? We must do what can best serve people and especially the sick [1].
