Question:
Has anyone had to sign a form stating they would not sue for malpractice?

The surgeon who is suppose to do my surgery wants be to sign a form stating that if something goes wrong I cannot sue for malpractice. He said it is because many doctors have been sued for malpractice from complications from the surgery. He is suppose to do the vbg. I have heard of signing a form stating you have been informed of all the risks but never that you cannot sue for malpractice. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thank You.    — [Anonymous] (posted on January 15, 2000)
