    That's not what I meant when I said "oh baby let's go do the hop."

    When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
    When in Illinois, do as the rest of the politicos do; create a dynasty.
    The arrogance exhibited by these "Oh-fficials" continues to amaze as well as baffle me.
    I thought this once great country was founded in part to rid itself of the aristocracy and tyranny of such royal families.

    JAX, I was thinking that but another one of our finest Governors took that out of the playbook. Instead we'll get another 4 on the tax burden.

    Actually, it could be either scenario. The whole thing is a rotten shame. The mug shots look like the Charles Manson prom court of the new millenium.

    Sounds like one for Judge Judy; the forum for morons. Lets see now, pain and suffering??? "My child will never ever be able to look at or go near another soda pop can again." That might actually be a good thing.

    My son is a patient of Dr. Jain's as well and was treated by him just last month. He is compassionate, thorough, professional and of excellent demeanor.
    Myself, I'm a risk manager and find these accusations troubling to say the least.
    However, I also found the headline to be over the top as well. To Patch I say cut the crap headlines, discuss same amongst your editors before putting it out in print. If you strive to be a professional news source, then write that way.
    To my sons good doctor and the clinic, I suggest a thorough review of your patient practices. As mentioned, why is a 23 year old seeing a pediatrician? I know folks have loyalty as do I, but perhaps there should be a clinic policy of at the age of 18 or 21 you are referred to a physician who treats adults.
    Although the Clinics exam rooms are small, I suggest a nurse be present during consults or exams. Finally, like it or not, there is the ever popular insurance lottery and often it is best to settle than have protracted court fight. News travels fast about targets for a quick payout and some folks are quite adept at cashing in. Good doctor, refer such patients with complaints outside of your specialty. Finally, if there was compelling evidence, the special investigations would have proceeded. Perhaps the SI people are suspect of the accuser????
    My son has been treated by the good doctor for 15 years and as long as he wants to be treated by him its perfectly fine with me.
