    Years ago I worked for a surgeon who was advocating that all surgical procedures in the hospital be video recorded, because it’s good for patients and providers. The pushback was strong. I don’t know if things have changed, but yeah, some doctors only see the liability, not the educational or self protection angles.

      And as patients I feel we have the right to see what is being done/ what was done to us! I’m not a litigious person at all, I’m just fascinated because this is my body and I walk around with it all day every day for my entire life, why can’t I see what doctors are doing down there when they’ve got me under anesthesia?
