That's an interesting article! We recently wrote an <a href="http://brainblogger.com/2008/07/07/the-curbside-consult/" rel="nofollow">article</a> on curbiside consulting at <a href="http://brainblogger.com/" rel="nofollow">Brain Blogger</a>. A "curbside consult" is when a doctor asks another for an unofficial consult, or when a a friend or stranger asks a doctor for his opinion. But where do you draw the line; is it right to give a complete stranger a diagnosis on a few symptoms? We would like to read your comments on our article. Thank you. Sincerely, Kelly Thanks for the information on phone consults. That’s an interesting article!
