um, yes absolutely unethical. should be reported IMMEDIATELY to the MEDICAL GOVERNING/ETHICS BOARD.
NOT YOUR FAULT, i repeat: NOT YOUR FAULT, NOT YOUR FAULT, NOT YOUR FAULT, NOT YOUR FAULT, NOT YOUR FAULT.
and... a friend or family member turning their back on you in such an instance in UNFORGIVEABLE. this is exactly like INCEST. there is a POWER that a DOCTOR has over a patient. that is why there are ethics governing relationships betweet patient and dr.
call a malpractice attorney and ask about suing as well.
sickening.
Uhhh.. that's not only unethical, but also illegal. He can lose his license for breaching the trust relationship.
you should have a little more respect for yourself....being a mother and all....
Report him to the board.
I would have his *ss reported to the medical board so fast his head would spin.
He has violated his code of ethics.]
Report him to the Physicians Board.
Its not your fault, don't go there anymore. Your friend shouldn't be mad you didn't do anything yet you did. The best thing to do is tell his wife and make a run for it, as in go to a different ob/gyn. My husbands best friend left us because he couldn't be my daughters god father. Turns out we changed our minds because my sister in law got cancer. We tried calling but he never spoke to us again. You don't want that to happen. My kids even called him uncle kevin! Well I would jut make up with your friend and see why shes so mad? Yet you did kiss him and you have kids! Plus he is going against like legal code! So yeah report his ***!
First, it is wrong. Second, it is illegal. You need to report that and then get a new GYN.
Report him! This is illegal and unethical! Also it is Immoral!
Uhhh.... well considering mine is a woman, that would be an experience.
Seriously, that is unethical and that doctor needs to be fired. I don't understand why your friend is mad at you if the Doctor kissed you...
Unless this was completely unprovoked on your part, I'd report him. But if you did ANY kind of initiating, flirting... whatever.. I don't know then. I mean, he shouldn't be doing that but his patients shouldn't be coming on to him either.
I am NOT blaming you, however!! This is wrong for a doctor to do this to any patient. I'm just saying that there are two sides to every story and this is an accusation that is career-ending so it's a big deal. Get an attorney to see what can be done.
