Allow me to draw your attention to this paragraph in #1230:
“...Nelson confirmed that West, who died only months ago, spent a great deal of his life in medical management, working with the major obstetrics providers in Hawaii, serving the American Medical Association in the state and directing one of the obstetrics clinics...”
Seems she became aware, after she told her ‘story’ that Dr West ‘spent a great deal of his life’ in an adminstrative position.
IMO her story is pure fabrication and that’s why the article was removed.
I don’t see how she contradicted herself. From memory, so I may be wrong:
Nelson says Wests says “Stanley had a baby this week”
Nelson now says that West may not have delivered the baby, but could have known about as medical director or something.
The two statements are not mutually exclusive.
parsy, who hates to look this crap up again
Good post. Someone asked why Dr. West would have become board-certified after retiring from delivering babies ... and the obvious answer is to gain the minimum qualification needed to be an administrator. Sometimes you have to have the credentials on your resume to move up. Also, if you remain a clinician, you may become more specialized in a certain aspect of your practice and narrow the types of cases you work on. In either case, the board certification does not debunk the claim that he stopped delivering babies two years earlier. That two years was probably spent studying for the board exams.
Yep, Nelson is a wannabe.
