Abstract: In the intricate landscape of healthcare, medical ethics serve as the compass guiding the moral and clinical choices made in the domain of primary care. This research paper embarks on an exploration of medical ethics in primary care, a journey that unveils a complex mosaic of dilemmas, principles, and the intricacies of ethical decision-making. As we navigate the labyrinth of patient autonomy, confidentiality, resource allocation, and the myriad ethical concerns that arise in primary care, we find ourselves enmeshed in a web of ethical complexities. This paper scrutinizes the interplay between ethical principles, emerging ethical challenges, and the imperative of preserving patient welfare in the ever-evolving landscape of primary care.

Keywords: Healthcare, Medical Ethics, Primary Care, Ethical Decision-Making, Patient Autonomy. Confidentiality, Resource Allocation, Ethical Concerns, Ethical Principles, Patient Welfare.
