Remember the obstetricians revolting against the crazy malpractice lawsuits and refusing to treat lawyers or their spouses?

Remember when the wrongful life lawsuits drove obstetricians in  France to refuse prenatal ultrasonography?

Report: Doctors Refusing to Treat Overweight Patients | CNSnews.com.

This new trend has a different basis, but  is completely EXPECTED.   The Obstetricians are now turning away overweight patients, citing a lack of equipment to take care of the very huge, and the high risks involved in the care, particularly in managing child birth.

Expect  MORE of the larger ladies  to be denied  prenatal care, and come into the emergency room, with neglected diabetes and other complications, ready to deliver.

Baby Joseph Update, Ontario Canada

~ Pharmer

Although the medical records should be released to Joseph’s Maraachli’s parents upon request, according to law, London Health Sciences Centre in London, Ontario, is witholding them. This appears to be an effort to prevent the transport of Baby Joseph to a U.S. hospital where a tracheotomy can be performed.

Health care professionals are standing by and donated medical equipment is available to manage the difficult condition of Baby Joseph which appears to be far beyond the capabilities and fiscal reach of Ontario, Canada. (This is the kind of health care system intended for the U.S., under Obamacare).

According to advocates, the only thing standing in the way of providing for home care for Baby Joseph is this withholding of medical records. One wonders if legal experts at the hospital are combing the medical records for any improprieties before passing them on in this very public case.
