Amazing that UHC and their lawyer think they can fuck over a doctor, and then try to force the doctor to lie about UHC did to them.

Yeah, what do they hope to get out of this? If they're worried about damage to their brand/image then threatening a doctor is not helping.

These kind of reactions always remind me of the quote:

"You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should have behaved better." - Anne Lemott

You would think that a company dealing with doctors so often would know that they like to keep records, be ethical, and help their patients.
