"Vindicated -- and violated"
I found the "Vindicated -- and violated" post (May 25) interesting. What really struck me was that when I read the full article it became clear that the doctor's attorney did a great job. It's quite evident that the doctor does not realize how lucky she is.
To prove this point all I have to do is point out the statement the doctor most wanted the jury to hear. That being, "[n]ot once did he point out that the reason the operative report wasn't dictated immediately was because I had an office full of patients waiting for me." Just think of what a plaintiff's attorney could do with that statement. -- James J. Woodruff II, attorney at law, Atlantic Beach, Fla.
