This is a prime argument against a government run healthcare system.

This was a first time use of new equipment in a risk procedure to operate on a human heart. Patient not advised this was an experimental first time procedure. Surgeons assigned not trained in use of the equipment. A competent surgeon would have refused to do the operation knowing he wasn’t qualified suggesting the licensing and education process in the UK government health care system is deficient. No process in place to ensure surgeons undertaking the operation are competent and properly trained in the new equipment. Supervisors leave during the most critical point in the procedure. No one is accountable for failure.

Surgeons Sukumaran Nair and Thasee Pillay should be fired for incompetence. Of course government employees are never fired. These “surgeons” are probably doing heart surgery today.

“Surgeons Sukumaran Nair and Thasee Pillay” likely affirmative action type hires in UK and just getting paid whether outcome good or negligent death of patient.

Seems we are heading toward surgeons who think they can just press a button and get paid, outcome not their concern nor fault in their minds.
