Tom Brokaw has never been a conscious father, or he wouldn't be going along with this - date rape under anesthesia at Mayo Clinic - where procedures not discussed are done to give medical students (black especially), interns (women especially), or residents practice - because they don't object if an attending tells them to remove a normal nerve. They 'don't know any better' supposedly. These arrogant Mayo creatures are never around when a patient is in the Clinic - so you send the boys & girls on a clerkship high, who never met the patient, into disembody the patient in scrubs and masks. It's just a twitter thing - that I got to do this procedure, guess how I spent my summer. . .and Mayo Clinic Jill Smith (Legal Department) admits on the phone that the procedure did not have consent or discussion, but it's over & resolved. How? The patient consultants, ditto the same the line. When did wrong become so 'right?' Women medical students, or interns, will do this to a woman patient, without a minute's worth of ethical thought that they wouldn't want this done to them. It's part of the hazing, part of the getting to be a guy. Consent is part of surgery on any woman patient - informed consent in a room without the anesthesiologist or surgeon forcing things that you are going to comply with the 'Mayo way.' 'Not how we do things at Mayo' is how Dr. Sarr puts it in conversational threats. He's going to get his, one way or another ie under anesthesia - and his wife is an RN. For sure the sex wasn't consensual in that marriage. The nursing staff goes along, which is sick. If someone is drugged without consent, you don't leave them until they are awake - says the date-rape website - until they are able to do informed consent with a family member present. Informed consent is NOT consent in the OR corridor after pre-medications - like the guy anesthesia residents do at Mayo Rochester - date rape if they were at a 'party.' Which Mayo Clinic surgery is for the jocks in the delineating scrubs = just one big party drinks on the house. The 'ruffies' are just Versed - the woman patient has to read the operative report to find out the drug of choice that day - the airway that she didn't consent to that gagged her. It's not duct-tape but it's still not consensual. Even if the Anesthesia Service then forgoes a formal bill, they have to participate in the undoing of this, and the re-education that this is NOT ok. When did training Mayo surgeons become rape? This is done especially for abdominal wall pain misdiagnosed - so you take someone to surgery - who didn't need the surgery if a workup was done (Mayo Clinic Proceedings), and remove abdominal wall nerves because you couldn't do a Carnett's test, or didn't know what it was - like Dr. Michael Sarr. Do you know what a Carnett's test is Tom Brokaw - did that Honorary MD give you Wizard of Oz infused knowledge? Tom Brokaw has allowed this to continue for the last year at least, begging his multiple myleloma, but really just cashing in for his Honorary MD degree. What a newscaster won't do for an Honorary MD? Judith Resnik would rise from the grave if she could. No student should take any of his advice, in any Commencement Speech - he doesn't do what his image presents. Remember him castigating NASA about Ohio-born Judith Resnik and the Challenger disaster - that NASA didn't have consent for that one either. Now Tom Brokaw is allowing little better at Mayo Clinic - where if the attending can't get consent while the patient is awake, he does it under anesthesia with 'forget' properties - so you have to get the operative report to find out what happened to you that you didn't consent to. Like Veronica Mars, you have to play sleuth and try to catch the guys in the lies. The Surgical Attendings like Dr. Michael Sarr, tell your parent that they could do this because they 'are Mayo Clinic' - the Dr. Sarr one-liner that the residents copy to a tee. How would a parent of a graduating Mayo medical student like to hear that one - what their idolized child did to another woman to graduate? Andy Oldenburg MD goes along with this being done to his classmates from Medical School - anything for a staff position at Mayo Clinic. Purchasing this way is even a bit below Andy, who wants to be called 'Warren.' All procedures done to women patients, without discussion or consent, where the Mayo Clinic has admitted that the procedure did not have discussion, consent, or anesthesia consent, need to be undone at Mayo expense - asap. Before another graduation class at Mayo Clinic Medical School thinks that this is part of the Mayo prerogative - the divine rights of Mayo graduates. Damages should be paid for normal abdominal wall nerves, and consultation about the emotional effects presented to the Board of Trustees. Starting today there should not be one more woman patient who has to donate her abdominal wall nerves, or any other part of her anatomy, to Mayo Pathology Department, or just get naked for a medical students to touch and grope (this leaves a smell of cologne that is unmistakably male, and horrible to imagine what happened when you smell). The Mayo Rohypnol smells of black male cologne. The webpage on Rohypnol, the date-rape drug-of-choice of frat boys (the type accepted to Mayo Medical School), has been posted since 1996, and it reads: First, we want to make it absolutely clear that we absolutely oppose the use of any type of coercive chemicals on any person whatsoever, for any reason whatsoever. We also want to make absolutely clear that if you are considering using coercive chemicals on someone for purposes of sex, you are a sick individual, and you are contemplating nothing less than rape. Don't do it! This is what should be posted in the guy's surgical locker-room at Mayo Clinic, and tatooed on Dr. Michael Sarr - that gawk sex is just as bad - seeing someone naked and making fun while you do a procedure that the patient did not consent to awake - while their parents are being lied to on the phone - is also sick. This is the reality of Mayo Graduate School for Medicine. The polo shirts, loafers, the preppy sweaters, and the Polo cologne - that then gives you nausea. The Board of Trustees of Mayo Clinic needs to step-up and stop the abuses.

I can commisserate with your report. Mayo did quite a number of me as well.
The Mayo I used to be a patient at is Mayo Clinic Health Systems - Franciscan Healthcare in La Crosse, WI. I filed a "Ripoff Report" some time ago, but new information (now that I am no longer a patient of theirs and am at a new health-system) has been found. Misdiagnoses as well as "missed" diagnoses! I was being "teated" for things I didn't have and NOT being treated for things I did have that "they" completey missed due to neglicence, complacency, and overall "not really caring" about the patients but rather just image, prestige, power, image, revenue, and etc. However, it appears attorneys are afraid of Big Bad Mayo - or may even be in league with them - at least in my area. I have a blog that covers spme of what "Mayo" did (among other topics) and the beginning of a website (revamping, clarifying, etc. my old wevsite about what they were doing to me - the udates on the old site were pretty much in "real-time). If you' re interested, you are welcomed at www.mayolacrossewi.com which has links to some of my blog-posts concerning them. MAYO - any kind and anywhere, think they are above the law. (For legal purposes I must say the following (even tough all I have said is true): Everything within this comment is my opinion.)

Rita, no one takes your complaints seriously! And now you want to pick on Tom Brokaw? Really?
Your repetitive and malicious posts are evidence enough of the mental illness that caused you to lose your medical license over 20 years ago.
Time to go back on the meds!
