Description

On August 15, 1953, plaintiff was injured when the butt end of a large tree he was felling struck him on the knee. The tibia and fibula of his left leg were fractured. There was a spiral fracture with fragments, a 1 1/2- to 2-inch-long fracture of the tibia just above the ankle joint, and a fracture of the fibula running down into the joint. He was taken by automobile to a doctors office in Rushford, Minnesota, where the leg was placed in a temporary basket crib splint. He was then taken to the hospital in Winona and was attended by Dr. J. N. Steiner. Dr. Steiner requested defendant, Dr. Robert Tweedy, to assist in reduction of the fracture since Dr. Tweedy had had more experience in matters of this kind than Dr. Steiner. Dr. Tweedy has engaged in a general medical practice as physician and surgeon in Winona since 1935 and has had considerable experience in reducing fractures of all kinds by the various methods known to the medical profession.
