worked in an ER in Milwaukee years ago, this lady (frequent flyer w/ spouse, both wore football helmets due to seizure hx,,,just to give you a visual )))
Anyway, she came in one night w/ lower abd pain, the MD does a pelvic and pt eventually was d/c'ed. A few weeks later a copy of the press gainey questionaire gets circulating around the staff and the lady gave 5 satrs to the MD for (I quote) " I've been married for 20 yrs and have never been able to org***, but Dr XXXXXXX made me feel like no man has ever made me feel" yada yada yada...... The MD here has a personality of a doorknob and gets all ticked off, and the staff is forboded from ever mentioning the story...... Anyway, I ask forgiveness from the board police if this is too risque of a story, but as ER folk we march to a different melody.......
that doesn't prompt some kind've investigation when a pt writes about a sexual experience with a staff member though? i can see the doc getting pyst if he hasta go through that kinda crap b/c of a stupid note like that.
