He may have made an error in judgment, but I just do not see where this entitles her to a free pay day. This is why our medical care costs so much. Malpractice insurance is so expensive Dr's raise their prices to cover it.

The pay day is not my first concern here, but what other recourse is there for someone to take, when they think their rights have been violated?

This woman didn't go into the hospital seeking to entice this physician into putting a tattoo on her without her permission. She went into the hospital seeking relief from pain. She put her trust in the physician to do only what he was supposed to do, and he betrayed that trust.

This guy gets a kick out of knowing he had his hands in women's private areas. He likes to run into them in public settings having both know that he has had his hands in their private places. Somehow it isn't quite good enough for him to run into them knowing he has given them relief from pain, and that they live a better life for him having done good work. Instead he needs to know where he tagged them, and he needs to know they know where he tagged them. That is a fetish. It is improper.

This is not the first woman he has done this to. His own attorney admits he's been doing this for some time. It's my take that this is not the first complaint. It is the first complaint that has hit the courts and the papers.

Some women are very private. They are very uncomfortable declothing in front of anyone other than their husband. Going to visit a physician for a physical is something they tollerate, but they don't enjoy it one bit.

For this type of person, to have a guy put a tattoo under their bikini line, is imply unacceptable. And this person is doing something about it.

Who is it that exposed the health care industry to one more law suit? This woman? No. It was a physician who has been trained, inserviced, and told repeatedly for years not to do anything even close to this.
