FINCH, Judge
(concurring).
I concur in the result reached in the principal opinion and in what is said therein except language indicating that mere silence on the part of the physician may constitute a wrongful act under § 516.280, RSMp 1959, V.A.M.S., which will toll the application of the limitation provisions of § 516.140. I have set out in a concurring opinion in Smile v. Lawson, Mo., 435 S.W.2d 325 decided concurrently herewith, the reasons why I do not agree with this portion of the principal opinion. It would serve no useful purpose to restate those views herein.
