1) to those docs who are actively involved in ART - just because something Can be done doesn't mean it Should be done. have we gone so far in the ideology of medicine as a biz that now the customer is ALWAYS right? 2) to the mom - seems a bit selfish no? is your child gonna have you there for her grammar school graduation, forget about high school and college?

just one guy's very humble $0.02, not meant as a judgement.

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.
