"Six of my cases were brought up for review by a tissue committee controlled by competitors. A nurse (sic), employed by the Saint Francis Hospital, testified that I had the highest rate of complication. Why such testimony was admitted is a matter of some interest, in itself. Liability for bearing false witness is an important related matter, in itself, and falls under the topic of immunity. Under our gracious new laws, I would not be able to win $500,000 today were a nurse again caught committing libel." Verner S. Waite M.D., FACS.
