Come clean to your doc, or you could risk more than a red face. Many patients see no harm in fibbing about whether or not they smoke, take vitamins or how much they drink. But this information should not be left out. In particular, women who do not tell their doctors that they smoke rob themselves of an accurate determination of their risk of blood clots. Doctors who know that their female patients smoke tend to recommend lower-risk methods of contraception, such as diaphragms and IUDs.

U.S. doctors who refuse to see drug companies’ sales representatives can now display a sign, similar to a "No smoking" sign, in their offices.
The certificate says that the doctor’s office "does not allow visits from pharmaceutical salespeople because we rely on scientific information, not marketing, to decide what treatment is best for you." It adds: "This policy also means that we don’t provide drug samples."
"‘Free’ drug samples cost you money," it says, because they are promoted only for the most expensive drugs.

There's a grim, rarely talked-about twist to all that medical know-how doctors learn to save lives: It makes them especially good at ending their own.

The General Medical Council will lose the right to decide whether doctors' misconduct makes them unfit to practise in the biggest shake-up of medical regulation in the United Kingdom for 100 years.
The GMC will continue to set standards and investigate allegations of serious misconduct by doctors, but the right to adjudicate will pass to a separate body, probably an independent tribunal with legal, lay, and medical members.
The reform is outlined in a white paper on the regulation of doctors issued this week by the Department of Health
