No one is allowed to be in the surgical theater
without a medical license ... unless he is Bill Gates.

Someone talking personal responsibility in the modern era?
He must not be a politician.

Resigning should be the least of his worries.
Next up, lawsuit.
Then, charges.

Medical Students do this stuff, they ain’t licensed... yet

I can’t believe someone would have participated in the surgery like that.
I expect a lawsuit to follow.
To: Diogenesis
As a fact, your statement is false. I have a buddy who is a big wig in Stryker. They make knee and hip replacements.
My friend does not have any medical or nursing degree. He is in operating rooms nearly every day assisting in replacements.
He touches patients, manipulates OR equipment, etc.
although he has never mentioned using a scalpel, he is an active member of the surgery team.

""As the case began, the surgeon asked if I would like to make the initial incision for this surgical procedure. I regret I did so," Mr. Neal wrote." The next time Mr. Neal needs a tooth filled, I hope the dentist lets his 18 year old tattooed, nose-pierced, green-haired daughter have a run at using the drill.

Happens all the time. Think medical device & equipment reps training docs on new tech stuff.
To: Bartholomew Roberts
Medical sales people are often in the surgical room helping with their expertise because they know the ins and outs of the device
They dont cut open patients

Do they cut open patients? Where you can knick something and kill someone?

Gives me an idea for a new TV reality series. Celebrity Surgeon.
Tonight Kelly Clarkson attempts a bowel resection...

We had an OBGYN do the same with a young lady volunteer he was enamored with. Let her make the first incision on a C section.
Fired him summarily.
He was almost charged with aggravated assault.
Cant believe a CEO wouldnt know better.

There was a Rockford Files episode about a medical sales guy that botched surgery on a big time hood.
