Octuplet Doctor Unethical
Posted by admin on Feb 9, 2009 in Medical Rants |
What does a single mother with 6 children, who is unemployed and receiving disability payments really need? Well, if you are her doctor, you would agree she needs 8 more babies.
Nadya Suleman already had 6 children, reportedly by in-vitro fertilization. What would ever possess any ethical medical professional to implant 8 more embryos to a person in her position? Who is going to end up footing the bill for this fiasco? If you say the taxpayers, I think you are correct.
I believe the state medical board needs to take a close look at the doctor’s practice and bring sanctions if possible, as I think this is tantamount to malpractice.

I think the doctor needs to be footing the bill.
