The Law of Agency allows the actions of an agent (the medical assistant) to legally bind the principal (the physician) if the agent is acting within the scope of their duties. This means that if the medical assistant's negligence occurred while performing tasks assigned by the physician, the physician can be held liable for the assistant's actions. Therefore, a patient can sue both the medical assistant and the physician for negligence under the principle of vicarious liability.

The police will have you examined and/or treated as part of their "due dilligence and care" of you while in their custody.
