I've worked with a lot of good and a lot of bad surgeons, but even the bad ones aren't usually dangerous bad, but like slow af, sub-optimal but passable outcomes, shit like that.

I've worked with ONE who was just absolute shit at his job... and his incompetence got at least one patient killed.

He got axed pretty quick... hopefully his license was revoked and he got charged with murder, but I never got any details of post-firing.

Curious how common the truly bad ones are. I’d assume quite uncommon between licensing, hospital hiring, chart data analysis at scale, etc., but…

Counting down the days to a relatively minor surgery I need. No real concerns, I’ve met the lead surgeon a few times, but plenty of unknown humans are part of the process too.
