‘You can’t choose a doctor on Yelp, like a radio,’ warns plastic surgeon
A leading plastic surgeon has slammed a proposal to lift the ban on health practitioners using patient testimonials to promote their practices, saying people can’t “choose your doctor on Yelp”, like they can a radio.
The Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons’ (ASPS) president made the comments at a Queensland parliamentary inquiry into changing current health practitioner laws that would allow such testimonials.
