Description
Defendants Richard Lohner and Howard Francis are medical doctors and the principal officers and directors of defendant Provo Obstetrical and Gynecology Clinic, Inc. (hereafter "clinic"). Plaintiff Eleanor Reiser was treated at the clinic in 1964 and 1969 by Dr. Francis while pregnant with her fourth and fifth children. Inasmuch as Mrs. Reiser was Rh sensitized, Dr. Francis determined to induce labor to deliver her fifth child at 38 weeks of pregnancy so as to minimize the possible adverse effects thereof. That procedure was also indicated since Mrs. Reiser was emotionally and physically upset, and the cervix was soft and effaced, which made conditions favorable for induction.
