In the German language there are formal and informal addresses, and it is a tendency among midwives to invade the patients' privacy by forcing the informal address on the patients.

They are not your friends, they are patients (some of you call them clients even). Don't forget they may sue you.

And, by the way, hierarchies, you can not tell me that your SHOs call your Consultants anything but "Yes, Sir" or "Mr Soandso".

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.
