And this is one of the many, many things wrong with Medicine in America.Sometimes you do things to be nice to the patient, but if a bad outcome happens they sue you. Don't be so sure this 80 year Olds family does not have a lot to gain by suing you for a bad outcome. Just look at the amount of people on here who gave a dissenting opinion to your judegement. Do you think the malpractice lawyers could not find a bunch of legal experts who would say you made a bad decision doing this case at a surgery center?
Always protect yourself and your family before trying to help a patient.
