A majority of doctors in most other states are cutting back on patient care because of rising malpractice insurance premiums. I have a riddle for those doctors: What's difference between an auto mechanic and a medical surgeon? Answer: An auto mechanic doesn't leave his tools inside object he worked on! A study by researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard School of Public Health found that surgeons ignore standard practice of counting surgical tools before and after an operation, resulting in tools being left inside bodies of 1,500 people each year. The actual number of people with surgical tools left inside their bodies is much higher because hospitals are not required to report mistakes. Surgeons leave clamps, electrodes, sponges and other surgical tools inside bodies of people. In several cases, 11 inch metal retractors where left inside people. Sometimes people didn't know that a surgical tool had been left inside their body. Many of tools where found in later surgeries.
