In Lopez v. Aziz, 852 S.W.2d 303 (Tex. App.--San Antonio 1993, no writ), a similar result occurred in a suit where a treating physician sought treatment advice over the phone from an OB-GYN, and followed the advice. The court observed that the OB-GYN, Dr. Aziz, "did no more than answer the professional inquiry of a colleague. There is no evidence of any consensual basis for the existence of a physician-patient relationship arising out of that one telephone conversation. . . . To expose physicians such as Dr. Aziz to liability for simply conferring with a colleague would be detrimental in the long run to those seeking competent medical attention and is contrary to the public policy of this state." (Id. at 306-07.) The court went on to observe that (1) Dr. Aziz did not contact, examine, or treat the patient, (2) his opinions concerning treatment were directed to her treating physician who was free to accept or reject the recommendations, and (3) the treating doctor acknowledged that he was ultimately responsible for the patient's treatment.
