4. Description Abstract Strike is a legitimate form of collective protest in a democracy. At the same time, the guiding principle of medicine is the alleviation of suffering. Thus the issue of whether doctors should ever strike work is contentious. Some have preached from an ivory tower and advocated against this form of protest. Opinions have been expressed that the suffering caused by a strike of doctors violates the 'raison d'etre' of the medical profession.
