On the topic of malpractice, have you heard of this new malpractice prevention book called PHYSICIAN, PROTECT THYSELF co-written by a defense lawyer and physician? My colleague's malpractice insurance company sent him a copy but I can't find the book myself. According to his copy its endorsed by the AMA, Harvard, Stanford, Johns Hopkins, etc. and is a simple, practical guide how not to get sued. Please post if you know where I can get a copy of what sounds like a very important tool.

nice find! go to amazon.com and search for "physician, protect thyself" - it will be the 1st listed and you can order it from there.

My first thought is to offer my condolences to Eric’s whole family, including his sister Veronica who tried so hard to save him and who continues to work in his honor and memory.Thanks for your updates and Good luck in future..

Excellent post a very interesting read...
