Making mistakes

Of course we all make mistakes in life. But it is magnified with physicians because they literally have lives at stake. I was reading this article in The Reader's Digest about doctors confessing their mistakes and why they don't admit it more often. Um, maybe it is just me, but I think it has far less to do with pride and arrogance and far more to do with the litigious society we are living in and the consequences of law suits.
