Fair enough, but if you are talking about medical malpractice/negligence, this case does not meet the legal definition. Just because something is unethical doesn't make it illegal, which is why we have so many lawyers on the streets.

^ Agreed. Most importantly for a lawsuit there has to be actual harm to the patient, and the proximal cause of that harm has to be from the provider's negligent act/omission.

This thread is quite old. Please consider starting a new thread rather than reviving this one.
