Here we go again!  As I’ve stated many times before, no pictures in the hospital and no posting them on social networking sites.

The physician, a Fellow at the hospital and also acquaintance of the patient, included uncompassionate captions along with the photos of the young lady who had consumed too much alcohol. While still in the emergency room, the security guard asked him to delete the pictures and the physician stated that he would. So he also had a warning.
