Treated by that person? Or would you have to be seen by another person that is not related to you for certain guidelines and protocol with the medical system, ? Curious and wondering is all?

This is my thought and opinion . I would assume that the person in the medical field will have to not be related to you . The Dr. or Nurse need to be non Bias of the patient . Treat the persons like they would to all normal patients after the basic physical exams and questioning.

I have not had a relative treat me, but my doctor growing up was a best friend to the family. He was exceptional.

I have too many MD's related to me. I believe that your not supposed to have relatives treating you, just think if something bad happened. It's not wise as to have a relative operating or working on you. It would be too hard emotionally, thus judgement might become impaired.
So relatives and friends refer me to the best people to work with me.
