The finest of physicians will not always achieve the best possible result. I can assure you that indifference to incompetance it is not; rather it is a lack of empowerment and the power of legal defenses to stymie corrective action. Who will congratulate you for a pyrrhic victory? What are your resources? Are you ready to commit personal time and funds to the battle? And if you do prevail, are you ready to placed under the microscope, awaiting the random statistical variation outcome for which you will hang?

Most doctors are aquainted with unscrupulous souls, including a few of their brethren. These are not friends, to the contrary, most would rather see them disbarred, delicensed, or in jail.
