It will be a long way till the public, politicians, and judiciary understand that doctors do their duty efficiently.If something wrong happens to the patient it is due to patient disease or injury. Legistlatures and laws may not support us for a long time. Till then should we tolerate violence or can we do something? Best is self-defence.
Be prepared to defend yourself. No law is against you. If they hit you once, you hit twice. Are you prepared for it?
