So he really isn’t a doctor and he wasn’t treating patients. He got the crap kicked out of him because he was acting like an asshole. The airlines should also kick the crap out of the people who don’t check their bags until they are ready to board, holding everyone up. Lady there is no way those suitcases qualify a carry on.....here is a fist in the face for making it difficult for everyone else.
You don’t like the rules, take a bus or drive.
This story is fake.
No. The doctor in question was disciplined years ago, and his license is restored, and he is allowed to practice medicine. He currently practices medicine. Good doctor, bad doctor, person you don’t want keeping your kids, etc. This is not the issue; this is a smear campaign designed to rehabilitate United Airlines’ damaged reputation. This man was not dragged off that flight because of his past sins: He was dragged off because he didn’t comply with being forced to give up his seat for a United employee. For $800. Last time I flew, I was flying to my youngest daughter’s college graduation. She graduated with honors in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering. Her dad is dead, and I’m the only parent. Had they tried to drag ME off that plane, there would have been even MORE blood AND a lawsuit.
You dont like the rules, take a bus or drive.
And if there are kids present, even better! Gotta teach the little crumb crunchers early on to obey authority!

Wow, you are such a tough guy. I bet everybody is scared of you.
The airline business is a customer service business. The passenger was boarded. His luggage was on board. The UAL manager came aboard and demanded four volunteers to deboard. When no one volunteered he ordered four passengers to be taken off the plane randomly. The 69 year old man was the third passenger ORDERED OFF the plane. He refused. The Manager called law enforcement and had the man violently removed.
You are telling me that UAL has no clue how many crew members they have to move around the country BEFORE they board the passengers? I call piss poor management on UALs side. I hope they have to pay dearly for this atrocity. How dare a US company treat its customers this way!
Note: I have no problem with the airlines informing passengers before they board that they have to take a later flight (which in this case was 22 hours later). If the passenger manages to negotiate a “deal” more power to that passenger.
