Although lit. = مهاودة or الوصول إلى حل وسط, 'compromise' here indicates a somewhat unprofessional indifferent tendency towards rigorous rules.

You mean "the doctor performance presents a serious compromise to acceptable standards of patient care" = "أداء الطبيب يمثل تهمة الإهمال الجسيم لمعايير رعاية المرضى"?
It does not make much sense to me. I would dare to say it is wise to match the style of the source text, and regretfully, the translation from the kind professor does not.
Pick one of us, mutargm :D

Ahmed Dahman
: تقصير fits exactly the context and "compromise" in the medical Dic is "نقص".

فضح/فضيحة
This would surpass mere neglwect and borders on negligence. See links below.
1 day 5 hrs
تفريط، تنازل
سيفرض/سيوقّع التوقيف بدون دفع مستحقات لو [أنه قد] ارتكبت مخالفات خطيرة"، من قبيل أن يصدر عن أداء الطبيب تفريط فادح في/تنازل فادح عن المعايير المقبولة لرعاية الحالة أو أن يعرض سلامة الحالة للخطر/أن يخاطر/يستهين/يستهتر بسلامة/بخير الحالة.

it could be "تهمة الإهمال الجسيم" in case the source text read "serious negligence", standing alone (i.e. without the postpositioned modifier "to acceptable standards").

-تقصير- تهاون
compromise (n and v. T) a concession (to concede) to something derogatory or disgraceful ;a compromise of principles,standards or manners .. a compromising(adj) situation
so good translation can be..تقصير- تهاون

I am sorry because I do not know how to add a note separately to the asker ,I have to add it here with my answer.
If 'compromise' means تهمة الإهمال الجسيم as the doctor has already said so what does the common LEGAL term 'Dereliction of duty'of which certain doctors are accused mean ?!I am waiting fellow translators and linguists opinions.

Enshrine,I did not copy your answer.I gave a clear answer confirmed with 2 credible references and didnt depend mainly on feeling the word or imagining its meaning.Moreover,I gave 2 meanings for 'compromise and both are relevant to its instant context.
