Medical Malpractice

Any specialist in medical law around?

Might you know what the first medical malpratice case was in USA? I remeber the explosion of cases in mid or late sixties.

1. The first one in Florida was back in 1893--if that gives you some perspective on how far back it goes. This has some other links--not sure if there is a history of the first case. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_malpractice
