If you don't agree with the doctors practice or position, why not spend the effort finding a new one that shares your views?... Read Answer

So your freind STOLE your blood sample from the hospital and you want to blame ....the hospital? Sorry - this sounds like a bad remake of a junkie scam from the movie Salton Sea. There is a LOT more to this than provided - but unless you are willing to spend money out of pocket to hire a lawyer to intervene, this starts with a complaint to the hospital and exposing your "freind" for the theft and going from there. ...
