Zagat "eat-and-tell restaurant guide" turns focus to medicine and physician reviews

From The International Herald Tribune:

• Zagat doctor reviews are being introduced online to millions of WellPoint's Blue Cross plan members across the country
  
  
• A doctor comments on upcoming Zagat doctor reviews: "Are patients the best judges of health care?"
  
  
• Bad doctor reviews "in many occasions are posted by a disgruntled employee, an ex-spouse or even a competitor."
