Readers' responses ... medical noncompliance.
The Second Opinion staff invited a number of its readers who are physicians to respond to our recent Case Stories section on medical noncompliance, which included a case story by Kevin Coleman and commentary and overview by Arthur W. Frank (Second Opinion 17, no. 3 [January 1992]). Our thanks to those who shared their reflections, a number of which have been excerpted here.
