I for one can see how going to four doctors is "doctor shopping". Actually I am surprised that the number is so low considering his condition.

A friend of mine recently had cancer surgery and saw his GP,a specialist, a second specialist for a second opinion, a surgeon and finally a chemo specialist.

I think of "doctor shopping" in terms of ten or more.

It also involves people getting drugs as a dealer.

I hope roy black goes to court for an accounting of all copies made of rush's records. It is obvious the prosecutor will only respect an order of the judge. (if that)

Doctor shopping is a little more specfic. It evolves getting overlapping prescriptions from different doctors for the same ailment within a 30 day period and not disclosing the previous prescription to the other doctor. It is not certain that Rush is guilty of this.
