Note 282 — CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN PHYSICIAN AND PATIENT.
Reading edition
The most of the cases in which the rule has been enforced are those in which the physician has actually testified without raising the objection himself, and in which, therefore, the rule could not be enforced if the physician’s waiver were valid, but the following cases particularly are in point: Harris v. Rupel, 14 Ind., 209; Barton v. Allbright, 29 Ind., 488; Storrs v. Scougale, 48 Mich., 387; Lunz v. Mass. Mut. L. I. Co., 8 Mo. App., 363; Johnson v. Johnson, 14 Wend., 636; Hanford v. Hanford, 3 Edw. Ch., 468; People v. Stout, 3 Park Cr. Rep., 670.
