Not unusual that doctors disagree on a diagnosis. So why wasn’t a third doctor or third team of doctors brought in to review the records and examine the child?
My thoughts, exactly. Rather than put the girl at risk and her parents in such an awful situation - for over a year now - why not bring in a third party team of doctors?
Let's assume for a nanosecond (for us products of the public education system, that's not very long) that all involved want the best for the child If that is the case, why not do what's best for the child, and that is obviously NOT taking her out of her family's custody and changing her treatment.
I understand that the doctor at Tufts that first diagnosed and treated her has offered to consult with the doctor at Boston Childrens that brought in DCF, but the latter has refused. How can that be in the best interst of the girl???
Because that would question the authority of the BCH quacks and Deval Patrick's DCF.
