1985Assuming arguendo that the issue was presented to the trial court, we hold that patient’s complaint is without merit. “[T]he doctrine of informed consent applies only to medical procedures which have yet to be performed and ... is inapplicable in a situation ... where the patient has already undergone the proposed treatment and been injured.” Roark v. Allen, 633 S.W.2d at 808 .
