if you found out your psychiatrist had his license suspended in the 90s for

having sex with a patient during appointment hours, and that she would abuse and overdose on the medication she obtained through Rx's by said psychiatrist, would you continue seeing him?

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

....want to tell us something, Tweed?

I don't know man everyone makes mistakes but that is some pretty damn unethical, and immoral, behavior right there. Not as much the sex part but the Dr. Feelgood bit.

That depends if the relationship was a half + 7 violation or not. Obviously if he was like 40 and she was just some college student it's very creepy and disgusting, but if they were close in age and it was entirely consensual what's the big deal?

[fezzyfestoon]

I would. That sounds like a situation that could pay off at some point.

There are ethical restraints if you choose to be in a certain profession. If you can't deal with those restraints, then don't go into it.

Do you not understand what the patient-psychiatrist relationship is?

My psych is my favorite doctor ever. She doesn't keep me waiting long. She's friendly. She listens. And she always gives me a permission slip for what I want. Though I've never asked for anything remotely unreasonable. I'd keep going to her unless the government changed the drug laws so that I can get my drugs without her permission, which is extremely unlikely. I don't have a high opinion of the customer service of most doctors, but she's a rare exception.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Absolutely not.

Is she hot? Would you have sex with her if she wanted to?

Good lord, do you really believe the crap you spout?

As for the psychiatrist, Tweed, he sounds a mighty cool individual.  I wish I could be a fake psychiatrist.

BTW both the dentist who gave me a root canal I mentioned in that other thread about a month ago, and her dental assistant, were quite attractive, and if either one told me they wanted to do an, uh, "extra operation" after the procedure, I'd say yes in a heartbeat.

I'm not into 40 year old black women, but she's not unattractive.

Sex is not unethical and in terms of brain chemistry is legitimately therapeutic.
