Dr. Sam: “Regardless of all the propaganda being spewed by the disciples of John Edwards, the ridiculous lawsuit culture absolutely has a tremendously damaging effect on the cost and efficiency of, and access to, needed medical care in the United States.
Just as the makers of my lawnmower and my bicycle have altered their products to cover their asses legally, every physician in the U.S. with half a wit, alters their products (medical practice) to cover their asses legally.
Unfortunately, in medicine CYA doesn’t mean just slapping on a sticker or putting inconvenient little blobs of metal on a bicycle fork.”
