- Knowing when to keep your mouth shut (Stephen Carroll A Medical Perspective)
A doctor's highest duty is probably their duty to protect his or her patient's confidentiality. Without this level of trust a patient might be unwilling to fully disclose information that the doctor needs to know. The patient's level of care could be greatly diminished if the doctor does not have all the necessary information. To protect this confidentiality the law has taken the necessary step of creating a doctor-patient privilege which can only be broken in extremely rare circumstances.

Scene
- `Word' says more than your average thriller (By JUDE SEYMOUR Scene Movie Critic)

Ben Stiller has carved out a niche in Hollywood with incredibility. In prior films, audiences watched in disbelief as Stiller's everyman character met with not just hardship, but incredible hardship.

It's carried off a bunch of prizes at film festivals around the world including Cannes, Chicago and Tokyo, as well as topping the Mexican box office last year.
