Patient safety requires scrutiny, but
lawsuits brought against patients prohibit it.
This might be the first time a patient has documented
blacklisting in medicine. Once people
see how this works they will have a better chance of surviving having it happen to them.
If I had understood it, I might not be disabled now.
This is a graph (click to enlarge)
of my appointments with doctors over a period of years showing that every time
my primary care physician was involved, the appointments never resulted in
testing or diagnosis. I had to leave town without a referral to escape his
influence. It took years to figure out that I was being blacklisted and then learn how to escape it. The moment I sought treatment without his knowing about it, I got diagnosed, and continued to every time he didn't know about about the appointment.
What's the opposite of patient safety?
It turns out that the surgeon who chose to do this to me
(because of the nature of jurisprudence in this country, I cannot describe the
how and why as it should be described) is his friend.
If my doctor had allowed me to get diagnosed, it not only would have enabled me
to get treatment before it was too late, but it also could have indicted his friend. He opted to maintain doctor safety at the expense of patient safety.
That is the routine in medicine. The ethic is supposed to be to that they treat
the patient in front of them no matter how much they might not want to, but that
ethic is not followed when doing so could indict someone else in medicine.
Treatable injuries became inoperable scar tissue during the years that I pleaded for help while getting only
the runaround until I finally put two and two together and learned how to escape
their influence and get diagnosed elsewhere. To read how this is done, click blacklisting.
Eventually I happened to stumble on witnesses, people who
working in healthcare who did not hide the fact that he telephoned them and told
them not to treat me. I directed the state medical board to them. With all that
I provided to them the state medical board could not dismiss this case, so they
decided that they were not charged with enforcing the laws applicable to this
case. Which leaves patients able to do what to protect themselves?

The paper trail is strong. The first amendment is supposed to enable us to publish things that are true. The paper trail merely is a record of appointments with doctors and what resulted from them. They might not like what it shows, but it is merely publishing their own written record. So it is the truth as recorded by
them. But they don't like it, so they threaten to sue me, apparently in an attempt to bankrupt me so that I will stop publishing the truth. It is ruinously expensive. But I'm just telling the truth.
We must establish the truth and proceed to justice so that
patients may be safe.
Physicians can warn each other about patients
and blacklist patients to the point of causing injury,
while patients cannot warn each other about physicians
without getting sued - a major inequity crippling patient safety.
