Doctors & Surgeons



Recommended Posts

Curious. Are there any MD's or surgeons that are members of this site or contribute to the forums?

It would be nice to see responses from medical professionals, but I could also understand legally why they would not provide advise on a message board.

I have never seen anyone on here admit to being a Dr, but as you say that may be due to liability concerns. I have seen several nurses who give good medical advise. p.s. I am a paramedic and sometimes have a clue myself, lol.

I didn't think so, I am just concerned that posters are asking medical questions that some are responding with a diagnosis and providing questionable advice.

I did notice that someone identified himself as a physician joined the board yesterday, but only to share his personal story. Thanks.
