Doctor in Doubt
"I did my best."
So said a doctor not long ago
when a disgruntled patient sued
him for malpractice, it seems that
the patient had been suffering for
eight years from a surgical wound
that would not heal. Now, de-
manding damages, he told the
miirt •
"I realize that the doctor did
his best. The trouble is, his best
was not good enough. After alt
these years, he must have realized
his own limitations. What he
should have done was to send me
to a specialist."
The court agreed, and the doc-
tor was held liable. The court said
that when a doctor has( or ought
to have) serious doubts about his
ability to handle a case, he has the
legal duty to send the patient to
someone who is better qualified.
A similar duty rests on other
practitioners of the healing arts.
Take this case:
A riruoiess neaier. treating a
man who had severe abdominal
pains, gave him a vigorous mas-
sage and a strong laxative. Result:
the man died from a ruptured
appendix. In due course, his
widow sued the hcalsr for mal-
practice.
The court decided this was a
legitimate defense, and dismissed
the case. Noting that medicine is
not an exact science, the judge
said no one would dare to be a
doctor if he had to guarantee per-
fect results every time.

At the trial, he insisted that he
had used the best treatment ac-
cording to his own school of
thought. Nevertheless, the court
ordered him to pay damages. With
plain signs of possible appendi-
citis, said the court, he should
have turned the case over to a
regular doctor.
Of course, the mere fact that a
treatment is unsuccessful does not
mean the doctor was at fault. In
another case a boy's broken leg,
set by the family doctor, healed
with some permanent stiffness.
The family, claiming damages,
blamed the doctor for not calling
in a specialist.
But the doctor explained:
'This was not an unusual case.
I have often handled similar
fractures, and there was no special
reason for me to expect trouble
with this one."
