Skill standard for physicians as defined by Kentucky court
The Kentucky Court of Appeals in Burk vs Foster rules physician skill is judged by general care and skill in similar communities, not by local best practice. A patient may recover for negligence even if treatment results match typical outcomes, since he may deserve a chance at better results from proper care. In a separate note, Justice Gaynor denied a new trial in Yula v. New York and Queens County Railway, holding no presumption against the defendant for not calling certain car passengers as witnesses.
