Not directives on what someone should or should not do. Not directives on choice of doctors, treatments or drugs. FIRST PERSON sharing of stories and medical experiences is ALWAYS acceptable, be the experience good or bad. However, second hand stories and no direct experience with the physician is the equivalence of gossip. ly, I would not want to base any major medical decision on mere gossip, would you? As for Dr. West and his disciplinary actions: this has been well reported on this support group and all documentation publicly available about the situation can be found here: http://www.nuff.org/health_chattranscripts_SWest1.htm Additional information on archived messages to this group which will lead you to FIRST PERSON stories can be found in the Physician Database online for this support group. Although the database is by no means complete (only 1/3!), Dr. West has been discussed a great deal on this group by his patients. Pro and con.
