Got any links for those? What I'd like would be a history for each doctor, with treatments and outcomes listed, including statistical reports of aggregate results. You'd think that medical "science" would do that routinely, just to improve itself. Of course, the personal data on each patient should be protected.

I'm not sure malpractice filings would really help a lot. People get really emotionally involved in the treatment of their relatives, and the number of malpractice claims might be an indicator of bad luck as much as bad practice.
