More on the patient-hitting cardiologist

September 11, 2007

An interesting comment by a colleague on the cardiologist accused of hitting a patient during a cathetherization:

Having been called to the cath lab on several occasions to intubate his patients I can say that this report does not surprise me and is completely consistent with past behavior (though he never struck anyone in my presence). I’m quite sure he refrained from striking me only because of my size and ability to fight back.
