OB-GYN slammed for griping about late patient on Facebook

A St. Louis OB-GYN has sparked a fierce battle by whining about a tardy patient online. "I have a patient who has chosen to either no-show or be late (sometimes hours) for all of her prenatal visits, ultrasounds and NSTs. She is now three hours late for her induction. May I show up late for her delivery?" Dr. Amy Dunbar posted on Facebook. Many are calling for the doc to be fired for violating doctor/patient confidentiality (she also posted that the woman had suffered a past stillbirth). But others say she never named the patient and that complainers should put on their big-girl underpants and get a life — she was just kvetching about work like everyone else on Facebook. [Source]
