While ethics and responsibility are applied as a matter of fact in medical practices. These must now feature more clearly in the way in which pathologies are treated. This is advocated by the Centre ASSAL: a practice of responsible medicine centered on the specific pathologies and patient expectations.
Our care philosophy is based on the concept of smarter medicine, an approach that aims to avoid the excessive use of medical measures that are often detrimental to health. This implies fewer unnecessary actions and prescriptions, fewer unnecessary risks and therefore higher quality care. Faced with the challenges of sustainability affecting all sectors of activity, the principles of smarter medicine provide concrete responses to limit costly interventions while optimizing treatments.
To be able to practice safer and more efficient medicine, we rely on the current state of science. We firmly believe that the quality of care depends not only on a statistical analysis of the volume of patients and pathologies treated, but also on a comparison of the outcome. Each decision made is therefore backed up by research data, clinical experience and the specific situation of each patient in terms of rights, possibilities and preferences.
