Sociologist Talcott Parsons suggests that the doctor-patient relationship is somewhat like that between a sick person and a healer in traditional societies, where the doctor is seen as an authority figure who provides both medical expertise and moral guidance.

The relationships between these entities could include a Patient having many Appointments, a Doctor treating many Patients, and a Prescription being linked to a specific Patient. Attributes for each entity would include things like patient ID, doctor ID, appointment date, prescription details, and diagnosis information.
