logcabinmama Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 This is just awful. It sure pays to get a second opinion most of the time. But for ths one lady it didn't pay. One wonders how some doctors can get by with this type of thing. This only makes people doubt them all the more. ------------------ Quote Link to comment

Darlene Posted November 14, 2002 Author Share Posted November 14, 2002 I was just wondering how extensive the coverage was-I got the impression that it was national news. Snowmom-most of the time the patients weren't given enough time for a second opionion-they were literally "scared" into the operation by being told they could drop dead at any moment. Others were of the age that believed that the doctor knows best-you don't question him. Still others fell into the "hypocondriac" syndrome-like my DDDH. He had a catherization by Dr. Moon about 3 years ago. I have joined the suit. Quote Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 I saw something about this on the news, it's just terrible! How anyone could get away with this is appalling. A vivid reminder of why I used to mistrust Dr's so much Same thing happens all the time to women in labor who end up with unneccary c-sections. The rate should be at about 3%, yet it's more like 20%. I hope they nail this guy to the wall! ------------------ Quote Link to comment

Darlene Posted November 16, 2002 Author Share Posted November 16, 2002 Don't know Becca. He died very suddenly and the doc figured it was either a stroke or a heart attack, but he didn't think there was a need for an autopsy because of his medical history. I guess we'll never know-I don't think ashes tell any tales. The lawyers will have to determine whether or not we can join the suit once they get the medical files and review them.
