Dr. McGregor, thank you for highlighting the importance of informed consent before any invasive procedure, like membrane stripping..., and more importantly, a review of the original oath of those entering the field as medical caregivers - the autonomy, the justice, the empathy. There is much benefit from a little reminder of these poignant words/oaths
