 Finally, someone in the medical profession comes right out and says it.   This is absurd and needs to be stopped.  I was puzzled by my doctor's insistence on one particular blood pressure medication until I noticed that every clipboard, pen, and notepad in the office had the name on it.  It works, so I'm fine with that particular case, but this is a serious ethical problem.
