Stark Raving Med: “Some radiologists really want to do the right thing. Some don’t and just want to take your money. But the ones who do continue to produce thoroughly researched excuses for you NOT to order that imaging test. And when you get sued, at least you’ll have the evidence on your side. Of course you’ll still lose, but you can at least take a little solace in being right.”
