When Doctors and Parents Don’t Agree: The story of Charlie Gard
Journal of Bioethical Inquiry 14 (4):461-468 (2017)
Abstract
This discussion follows a series of high profile cases involving a terminally ill child, Charlie Gard. These cases are significant as they trace the complexities that arise when parents and medical teams do not agree as well as addressing the question of whether there is a right to access experimental treatment.My notes
