MALPRACTICE SCENARIOS
I have to acknowledge that I didn't read all the scenarios. I am a happily retired physician. Why bring back the nightmares ? But I would love to learn the opinions of the attorneys-physicians authors of this publication, in relation to a scheme nobody thinks about and....it probably happens in American Operating Rooms

My book is called "terrO.R." Fiction ?
