The Egyptian legislator preferred to follow the approach of his French counterpart on the definition of medical work, which he did not address explicitly, although its content is taken advantage of some provisions of Egyptian medical law.
In this regard, article 1 of Law No. 415 of 22 July 1954 on the practice of medicine states: "No one shall give medical advice or clinic, surgery, direct birth, prescription of medicines or treatment of a patient, Of the samples determined by decision of the Minister of Public Health from the body of human patients for laboratory medical diagnosis in any way or prescription of medical glasses, and in general the practice of the medical profession in any capacity only if he is an Egyptian or a country whose laws allow Egyptians to practice medicine, The doctors 'register at the Ministry of Public Health, the Physicians' And that without prejudice to the special provisions governing the profession of obstetrics ».
As stated in the text of Article (08) of the Code of Ethics of the Code of Ethics for the profession of human medicine that: «The doctor may not announce by any means of the media a new method of diagnosis or treatment for use if it has not been completed and proved valid and published in medical journals. .. ».
The two previous texts show that medical work mainly includes the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and, in general, all that a doctor can do by virtue of his specialty of prescribing drugs, conducting various surgeries, sampling, counseling and others. This is why the Egyptian legislator has adopted a broad view of medical work such as the French legislator.
