I don't see anything wrong with her outfit. However, the flight did originate in Jamaica -- perhaps there was a cultural issue about dress and the Jamaican staff had an issue with it?

I don't see anything "wrong" with what she's wearing. Especially since she was leaving one warm climate to another?

If they want to enforce a dress code that's fine, but they need to make one that is straight forward and consistently enforced

I think she pulled her clothing back into place for the pictures. That type of fit and material has a tendency to rise up / bunch up in the crack during walking - especially if the thighs and 'cheeks' rub together in motion. It's the same as a girl at the pool with her swimsuit crammed halfway up her derriere. It didn't start out that way, but moving around has a way of making those bottoms shift out of place.

I really CAN'T picture it, ANY of them doing that, and there are SO MANY doctors I've encountered.

I agree.......if it was such a bad day, why dump it on the internet to rehash forever?

Yeah, normally I side with the "enforcer" when it comes to these stories (see through blouses, etc.) but I see absolutely nothing wrong with what she is wearing here.
Maybe it's just because I'm used to seeing how people dress here in Florida, I don't know. That's very "typical" everyday wear for women here.

She no longer submits payments to insurance, (read, insurance doesn't pay for her services) but will provide itemized bills so that her patients can advocate for themselves with their providers.

Um hm. I was just really struggling to picture her in a lab coat with a stethoscope around her neck.
What does that have to do with anything

Nothing, it was actually the wrong person, similar name.

Sorry.

I can't remove the post at this point - it's too old.

Another reason not to fly. I haven't been on an airplane in 38 years.
