An Interesting Observation

Does anyone else find it interesting that a female doctor was not consulted for this article? Isn't there a huge divide in medicine right now concerning the fact that most treatments are based on a male patient?

The most enlightening fact in this article is the lack of procedure for ethical decisions made within medical institutions. I think digging a little deeper into this disturbing fact would have been a better use of two pages instead of spinning personal controversy like every other news agency on the planet.
