#120 - Physician-Assisted Suicide
from Let's Get Psyched Hosted by KUCR
In 1997 Oregon became the first state to pass a law allowing terminally ill individuals to complete suicide with the help of a physician. Only 4 more states followed with their own "Death With Dignity" laws. Have any of the concerns raised in 1997 come to pass? Should this be a human rights issue? Join our discussion with guest David Orentlicher. Dr. Orentlicher is a doctor, lawyer, elected official, UNLV law professor, and medical ethicist, who has studied and published in this very divisive issue. Hosts: Eyrn, Alan, Joshua Guest: Nevada Assemblyman David Orentlicher, MD, JD
