SALMON, Idaho (Reuters) - An Idaho judge on Wednesday set bond at $100,000 for a Boise woman police say posed as a physician and duped at least two other women into having their breasts examined by her at Boise-area nightclubs.

Kristina Ross, 37, remains in Ada County Jail in Boise on two felony counts of practicing medicine without a license.

Police say Ross introduced herself to victims -- one at a downtown Boise bar and the other at a nightclub in a Boise suburb -- as a plastic surgeon named Berlyn Aussieahshowna, a name that turned out to be bogus.

You'd be surprised.

The mind boggles somewhat.

Letting someone, you meet in a bar, who claims to be a Dr. fondle you.

[tekla]

Yeah, at least make them buy you a drink first.

[Dana Lane]

Hi, My name is Dr Fondle.  Can I buy you a drink?

[Mrs Erocse]

That does make me laugh....One does have to wonder about who would let someone do a breast exam in a bar. If you found out they weren't really a doctor, would you really be suprized???

[Suzy]

Just amazing that anyone would fall for that.

Maybe she was trying to buy two Pickets to Tittsburg.
