Did the names of the majority of the orthopedic community of Ventura County put a damper on your day? There is case law from the Appelate Courts throughout this country that discuss the "clinical causation model." Toxic tort law had to be reformed because of the threat to companies presented by activist mega douchebags from the physican terror gang when it came to causation. Don't trip all over yourselves when it comes to trying to pass special legislation to protect yourselves while your colleagues are busy bedding the same lawyers to rape others What’s wrong?

Buenaventura Medical Group (recently purchased by Kaiser) – Multiple providers
Buenaventura Orthopedics – Horvath (DO) and Stroberg (MD)

I can continue with the providers from SB, LA (including SCOI, USC, UCLA), Orange County, San Bernardino, etc.

Post hoc ergo propter hoc and prostituting for the attorneys is endemic in the field of medicine and not the exception.

Please do name them off and the community. Otherwise, I think you’re just another fiction writer

I could name off about 60-70% of the local orthopedic and neurological surgery community that has been involved in the "they told me the accident caused the injury and therefore it did" post hoc ergo propter hoc "medical causation" travesty. We won't even talk about the rheumatological community with "post-traumatic fibromyalgia" - a litigation diagnosis (such as railway spine) if there ever was one. And then there are the psychiatrists. The local psychiatric community is so deeply in bed with the criminal defense attorneys that it is no surprise anymore to see some excusatory defense based on "mental illness" thrown out in almost every single case.

Try something like this...percentage of streetwalker physicians 1%, percentage of frivilously sued physicians at some time in their career 99%. I don't if you comprehend that ethical physicians despise any health care provider who has sold a less than truthful opinion for a dollar. We also despise members of the legal industry who extort money with no concern for the truth. Another oversimplification by Anon 2:28 from another thread.

I have to agree with CJD. Kevin you are better than this. You could have posted the LA Times story about Forutne 500 companies looking to offshore their healthcare, but instead we get a story about how the physician terrrorist gang blackmailed the vapid imbiciles of the legislature into passing special protections for themselves.
