Tattooed privates not so private
PHOENIX (AP) -- A surgeon faces a disciplinary hearing for snapping a photo of a patient's tattooed genitals during an operation and showing it around to other doctors.

Mayo Clinic Hospital administrators said Dr. Adam Hansen, chief resident of general surgery, admitted taking the photo with his cell phone on Dec. 11. The tattoo on strip club owner Sean Dubowik's penis reads: "Hot Rod." :rofl:

"I got a strange call after my surgery from a doctor who said there was a problem. He said Hansen was on the phone and would explain," he said.

Dubowik, 27, said Hansen told him he took the picture while inserting a catheter into his penis. A member of the surgical staff made an anonymous call about the photo to The Arizona Republic on Monday.

3. Unfortunately
this is not as uncommon as we would all like to think. When I was a practicing nurse I saw all kinds of stuff like this when the patients were out. Mostly from Doctors believe it or not. It was disgusting. Thankfully back then we did not have cell phones with cameras but there was a lot of, "Hey guys come and look at this hottie."

9. You can say that
but I sure hope there's nothing unusual about your body--or that nothing unusual happens to it--that causes some clod of a surgeon to say "Hey, everybody, get a load of this! Isn't it disgusting?"

13. Part of me wants to say the guy was boasting, so he would WANT his tat seen...
...but on balance I have to agree that when we're in the hospital we ALL deserve our privacy and some control over our bodies. Now that I'm done laughing -- what the doctor did was plain wrong, and he deserves censure.

15. In order to take pics, you have to have written and signed permission.
Doctors take and use pictures all the time for educational purposes. Taking a pic of a patient while sedated and unable to give consent for a joke is disgusting. I don't care what the picture is of, it's wrong. The doctor violated the doctor-patient relationship, and I hope he gets punished for it.

16. That's what it said when it was cold. When things warmed up, it said
"Mit is Hot. Rudy is Not."

The guy is obviously a Republican who likes Romney.
