White Coat Conspiracy

Topic: Miller Curtis & Weisbrod Blog

There has always been a "white coat conspiracy" - doctors sticking up for doctors, helping to hide information and not telling the patients the whole truth. Understandably, the patient is the one who suffers. Not just suffering from the needless injury or death, but also from never being sure they know the whole and true story.

In an amazing example of that, just read an editorial LINK about the criminal prosecution of two nurses who had the courage to speak out. They had a physician practicing questionable medicine. They aired their complaints internally - as they were required to do in an effort to get the patients some protection from the questionable medical practices. Those complaints were ignored. They raised their complaints to a higher level within the hospital, and again were ignored. So they took their concerns to the highest level in Texas - the state Board of Medicine, where licenses are issued and grievances are supposed to be considered and investigated.

Instead, the NURSES have now been charged with a crime.

They should be given a medal for their courage and tenacity and willingness to go the extra mile for their patients. And unfortunately, the white coat conspiracy lives on.
