Lamar,

While you're putting out feelers, you might want to ask the insurance company that underwrites your wife's malpractice insurance how they would feel about the internet idea. I suspect that they wouldn't share any enthusiasm for the project.

The guys on TV "get away" with the diagnostics and such by:

a) a really good disclaimer that usually accompanies their television/radio appearances and;

b) by sticking to generally acceptable medical practices and always advising a caller to "consult with your own physician".

These guys are generally "advising" to the extent that one could look up the answers to the questions in any good medical encyclopedia. And the questions are worded to make them sound "tough", but generally these TV doctors stick to safe, well researched topics and advice.
