In the Netherlands, a case of euthanasia of an incompetent patient with dementia and an advance euthanasia directive (AED) caused great societal unrest and led to a petition signed by more than 450 physicians. In this paper, we investigate these physicians’ reasons and underlying motives for supporting the ‘no sneaky euthanasia’ petition, with the aim of gaining insight into the dilemmas experienced and to map out topics in need of further guidance.
