Thank you to our witnesses.
This is a question for Mr. Schadenberg.
Some defenders of the current regime argue that the colleges of physicians and surgeons can regulate bad practice. My family has personally experienced some medical errors with my father. He eventually passed away. It was next to impossible for us to follow that up with anything that we knew we could do. It was very difficult.
Based on the cases you have followed, has professional regulation proven to be a meaningful safeguard? I think we need these checks and balances. I'm asking based on the cases you've followed and some you've mentioned today.
