What to do if your name is trashed on the web

Relevant in this era of anonymous doctor-rating websites. However, according to this article, there’s very little feasible recourse for the physician.

Update:
A “difficult patient’s” take:

If physicians see Rate MDs as a tool to use in their favor, it can be their friend. The odds are slim that the negative remarks are coming primarily from disgruntled drug seekers. Honestly, think of the average “drug seeker”””do you see him/her rushing off to find a computer so they can rate the doctor who denied the drugs? I see him/her rushing off to find another doctor . . . Most of the comments I saw when I checked out the site were positive.
