Not so sure about that "tort reform" change.


On Friday the Tulsa World published a story about a hospital patient in Skiatook, Oklahoma that went in to the hospital for knee surgery.  He got it.  However, it was on the wrong knee.  While he was still groggy they told him and got his permission to perform the surgery on the correct knee. 


The hospital, doctor and anastesiologists have billed him for TWO operations.  He's suing them.  Hope he wins and wins big.


Maybe if there were less stories like this the doctors would be less at risk of being sued.
