I've only had it happen once that I know of. When I was young and naive and fresh out of residency, I had a patient who was very clingy, always had a billion questions, multiple phone calls, etc. I had a choice of two different weeks for vacation and I took the one that was furthest from her due date, to try to avoid missing her delivery, but wouldn't you know, she delivered at 38 weeks while I was out of town. She never came back to the clinic. I do have more fun when I deliver folks I know, but I don't go out of my way anymore like I did for 15 years.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
