Video camera during surgery: Is it my right as a patient, to request this?

Question

I'm getting my BBL in June and I was wondering if I asked for my BBL to be video taped is it my right as a patient to have it done so?

Luis Macias, MD, FACS · Answer

No, it is not a right to have your operation filmed.  It doesn't hurt to ask, but I'm pretty sure that most will decline for a number of reasons including maintaining sterility, the surgeon's comfort, the staff's approval to be filmed to name a few.

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Taking a video of the surgery is certainly not part of the standard perioperative regimen.  I guess you can request that a video be taken, but the doctor would have to be willing to do this or hire a crew to film.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

You should ask your surgeon. Most would not want it to be done because it may interfere with the work at hand. But some may be willing.

Barry L. Eppley, MD, DMD · Answer

You do not have a right to have your surgery videotaped or photographed. You are paying for the surgery, not to document it. You can request it from your doctor and if he/she agrees, you may have it done at your own expense. (hire your own videographer)
