he's lucky if he keeps his license
Were they publicly available health reports? I guess they had to be, no?
I am meticulous on this point------does not matter----it is medical records----he is a doctor---(I assume) and should
not interpret them on TV
So why is this isolated example of any interest? How many call in shows are doctors giving some advice? How many are speaking about people or conditions they have not personally examined? Hillary Clinton or Prince or Lindsay Lohan--- this doctor and others have spoken and speculated on them a number of times on TV. So what? Public figures are subject to opinion and speculation. It is not like Hillary has to take heed of his advice.
I cannot thing of any examples of doctors on TV shows----
EVALUATING the medical records of a LIVING PERSON ---
sans the presence or written permission of the person
involved. If someone calls a doctor ON THE AIR and asks
a question-----of GENERAL MEDICAL INTEREST and the doc
answers ---fine-----if he were to procede and ask a complete
HISTORY----from that patient----I believe he has crossed the line. I know of NO SUCH CASES
