You said: "Number one cause of malpractice suits in the US? like to know? It is one doctor disparaging the work of another. Look it up." Tell me what you mean by that.
I've worked at a university hosp, btw, and never had any contact with a hosp admin or lawyer to muzzle me or any other MD
But as you've said, you've never been sued.
I have told Mfreddy not to run to a lawyer without any proof of negligence, not to avoid lawyers altogether. If he has proof, go for it.
Where/how would he get that proof?
A doctor telling a patient their first doctor screwed up is the most common reason for a suit. Pretty self explanatory.
Never been muzzled giving a second opinion.
Getting proof from a malpractice attorney is turning things upside down. you start with the conclusion that negligence has occurred and work back to prove it the best you can. They are not interested in the truth. And you know that.
