Octomom: "The human guinea pig"

This from the Associated Press:

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- A Food and Drug Administration investigator says the fertility doctor who implanted embryos into "Octomom" Nadya Suleman was using an experimental procedure.

Donna Tartaglino Besone testified Thursday in Los Angeles in the state medical board hearing for Dr. Michael Kamrava. She says the doctor used Suleman as part of a human experiment on fertility methods.

The board is trying to revoke the doctor's medical license, alleging gross negligence in his treatment of Suleman and two other patients. All 14 of Suleman's children were conceived through in vitro treatments that Kamrava provided.
