Allan, you bring up some very good points. And some issues that I/we may need to reconsider.

For example, think about the whole Stenum ordeal. How many patients have NOT gone there as a result of people sharing their stories of misfortunes (thank you!)?

I think the manner in which these interactions are explained is what's important. Willie and other Stenum patients have been honest, clear and professional about all the circumstances surrounding their operations; little is obfuscated or left for the imagination.

The extremes here for sharing opinions about ADR doctors range from saying nothing, to a grading system which assesses the ENTIRE experience with the doctor, staff and patient outcome.

Food for thought.
