Skeffington v. Bradley
Michigan Supreme Court
1Opinion of the CourtBlack, J.
The assembled and settled rules written most recently in Lince v. Monson, 363 Mich 135, require affirmance of these judgments for the defendant medical doctor. Plaintiffs’ allegation of mal-pz’actice is not supported by medical testimony showing or tending to show that what the defendant did or omitted doing was contrary to customary practice by reputable members of the medical profession practicing under similar conditions. Neither do their presented cases admit consideration of exceptions characterized generally by professional conduct “so gross as to be within the comprehension of laymen”…
