Personally I don’t think “dangerous” docs survive in most markets these days

Regardless.

If I have 2-3 complications I would be under review..

But hospital corporations aren’t going to stand for it.. and it’s not like credentialing or privileging is east these days. it’s also not like state boards aren’t as strict as involved as ever.

But just my take... as I think you have a lot of collateral damage to get a few bad apples

This is what I'm thinking. If I was being sued, I would want myself as a witness

Worse. Much worse. This is taking down a doc or attempting to do so

Meh. An insurance doc denies a study. Whatever. A plaintiffs hired gun

I don’t think these as true third party arbitration where you are neutral

I think it depends. I reviewed a case for a lawyer who was defending a doc

I’ve done it. I don’t find it rewarding. Too often you’re a hired gun, and a
