I am aghast at either gender behaving with reckless disregard for the well being of their child. I am further appalled that a patient would lie to her physician to such a degree (not surprised, just appalled). And finally, I am disgusted that a physician was so easily deluded (perhaps willingly). What a travesty has been made of our professional oaths and ethics!

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.
