Throws an exception on a return while get another table data through foreign key in .NET 5 Web API

Doctor detail include into patient object in this method but it return a exception.

[HttpGet("{id}", Name = "GetPatient")]
    public IActionResult Get(string id)
    {
        Patient patient = _dataRepository.Get(id);

        if(patient==null)
        {
            return NotFound("The Patient record couldn't be found");
        }
        patient.Doctor = _doctorep.Get(patient.doctorId);
        return Ok(patient);
    }

The exception is

System.Text.Json.JsonException: A possible object cycle was detected. This can either be due to a cycle or if the object depth is larger than the maximum allowed depth of 32.

The problem is that the patient class includes a field with the doctor class type, and the doctor class includes a patient class field. The result is a cyclic dependence. Because of this, the serializer cannot serialize the patient object to a normal json object. To solve this problem, I would advise using the dto object pattern. For example,

public class PatientDto
{
    public string Id { get; set; }
    public DoctorDto Doctor { get; set; }
}

public class DoctorDto
{
    public string Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }

}

In this case doctor doesn't include property with class Patient
