Elisabeth Potter MD@EPotterMD·
Today one of my breast cancer patients was placed under general anesthesia before I had seen her, marked her, or signed her chart. That should never happen. This is not the first time I have walked into a hospital and found that the rules were treated like suggestions. Surgery is not an assembly line. These are human beings. They deserve to be seen, evaluated, marked, and spoken to before anesthesia is administered. When I asked for an explanation, I was met with defensiveness instead of accountability. And here is the deeper issue. I am often told by insurance companies where I am allowed to operate. Even when I know that another facility is safer. Even when patterns like this have already occurred. Physicians should be able to choose the safest environment for their patients. Insurance contracts should not override safety standards. I am tired. But I am not going to be quiet. We have to build a system where surgeons can vote with their feet and take patients where protocols are followed and safety comes first. Our patients deserve better.

Let's be clear about this -- hospital staff refused to treat plainclothes NYPD detectives injured in the line of duty. Not only that, these officers were treated with contempt completely outside ethical bounds for medical personnel. From what I understand, staff supposedly did this because they thought the NYPD officers might have been 'ICE agents' as if that is a valid excuse to refuse a patient. Let's be very clear about something -- when doctors and nurses and medical staff begin to refuse critical care over perceived political differences, we will have reached a breaking point in this country. If this behavior is allowed to continue, and is not met with swift condemnation and consequences by the mayor and government leadership of New York as well as medical licensing boards and the professional community at large, trust in the medical profession will be shattered beyond repair. Even during wartime, doctors and nurses were bound to treat the wounded of both sides. And they could be trusted to provide competent and compassionate care no matter who they were treating. It was, in fact, a badge of honor for the profession. If the medical profession has now abandoned that basic morality, and patients now have to worry about being refused treatment -- or worse -- because of political hostility from their own countrymen, then a rubicon has truly been crossed and there isn't much else to say. This is a disgrace, it is unacceptable, and it is indicative of the profound moral rot that progressive activism has brought into every corner of our civics. The left is taking us down a very dark path indeed.
Detectives' Endowment Association@NYCPDDEA

Last week, two NYPD Detectives were mistreated while seeking medical attention at NYU Langone – Cobble Hill Emergency Room after being injured on duty during the arrest of a violent perpetrator. Upon arrival, they were met with rudeness, disrespect, and a lack of basic professional courtesy by hospital administrators. It is an outrage that any NYPD Detective injured in the line of duty should have to worry about being treated at any hospital in the city they protect.  As nurses across the city strike over issues like workplace safety, treating Detectives poorly is not how to make hospitals safer.  No one—especially Detectives injured in the line of duty—should face such treatment. The DEA is investigating this matter and will pursue all available remedies to ensure our members are treated with the dignity and respect they have earned.
