Urologist sentenced for fraudulent diagnoses
SFGATE.COM ^ | 03/08/08 | John Cote

A Los Gatos doctor was sentenced Friday to three months in jail and three months of house arrest for falsely telling an 87-year-old patient he had prostate cancer and convincing him to undergo unnecessary therapy in which tiny radioactive rods were inserted into him with needles.

Ali Moayed, 41, was also accused of falsifying pathology reports for two other patients and recommending they undergo the treatment, known as brachytherapy. Moayed's deception was uncovered before those two men had the procedure, Santa Clara County prosecutors said. All three instances were in 2005.

Any moslem perpetrating fraud to justify or account for radioactive materials concerns me.

The men who didn’t end up getting the procedure done must have gotten a second opinion.

I don’t know, what religion? And what does it matter in this case? I know Christian doctors who have committed fraud or are incompetent.

He’s getting off easy. If the patient is 87, there should be medicare fraud as well. I’ll bet he even keeps his license after his little jail time.

Guess the religion

In your opinion, if I can show a Christian doctor who has committed fraud (and I can), that invalidates Christianity?

Can you explain why his religion had anything to do with it?

If the patient is 87, why isn’t it elder abuse and Medicare fraud?

Did the article specify the religion? What did religion have to do with this story?

I’m sorry, maybe I’m getting paranoid, but I refuse to be treated by any dr. named Ali or Mohammed.

While Islam is guilty of causing a whole lot of death and destruction in the world, pointing out a person’s religion in a case of medical fraud when it does not appear relevant to the case makes us look silly in the sight of FR visitors. Just my humble opinion.

Here is why the religion matters.

http://www.debbieschlussel.com/archives/2007/07/i_told_you_so_t.html

* Dr. Rafiq Sabir—Boca Raton emergency room physician convicted in Al-Qaeda terrorist plot, pledging to treat and train terrorists, along with a New York martial arts expert;

* Dr. Wameeth Fadhli—A University of Texas medical doctor in the Galveston/Dickonson, Texas area, he sat in his vehicle, last summer, and shot several times at a random, 22-year-old infidel bicyclist. The male bike-rider, shot in his chest and shoulder, was in critical condition. Dr. Fadhli awaits trial, now scheduled for July 30th;

* Drs. Laila Al-Marayati and Riad Abdelkarim—Both work with and/or are top officials of KinderUSA (son of the Holy Land Foundation), which Al-Marayati voluntarily shutdown before the FBI did, as it was openly funding HAMAS “martyrs.” Abdelkarim went to “Palestine” in May or so of 2002 with Dr. Dallel Mohammed (not an MD). They took monies collected at an April 2002 fundraiser and were caught by Israeli security handing over the funds to a HAMAS operative. They were detained in an Israeli jail, and a large orgy of publicity ensued. The two came back to the U.S. as Muslim “martyrs” used it to raise money for more;

* Dr. Yazeed Essa—a Palestinian Medical Doctor of Gates Mills, Ohio. In 2005, he poisoned his pregnant 38-year-old wife, Rosemarie, with cyanide. She crashed her car and died. Dr. Essa fled to Lebanon and then traveled to Cyprus, where he was arrested, last October. Currently fighting extradition to the U.S.;

* Dr. Yahyah Basha—The Muslim Medical Doctor from Syria, who lives in the Detroit area, has a history of support of terrorist groups in his capacities and head of the now-defunct American Muslim Council (whose founder and Chairman sits in federal prison for terrorist activities and a plot to murder the Saudi King) and the American Muslim Alliance. Unfortunately, President Bush and the Michigan Republican Party remain close to Dr. Basha, even accepting free rental of office space from him. An FDA inspection of his nearby facility revealed “serious compromise in the quality of the mammography services offered.”

* Dr. Azizul Islam—Detroit area Muslim Medical Doctor from Asia murdered and dismembered his non-Muslim wife, convicted in 1999;

* Dr. Mohammed Jamil Abdelqader Asha—a 26-year-old neurologist who was arrested and is in custody as a suspect in the attempted London bombings, foiled Friday. He was born in Saudi Arabia, is of Palestinian origin, and has a Jordanian passport. His 27-year-old wife, a medical assistant, was also arrested for the foiled bombings;

* Dr. Bilal Talal Abdul Samad Abdulla—an Iraqi from Baghdad who was also arrested and is in custody as a suspect in the attempted Glasgow International Airport bombing, foiled Saturday. He was reportedly in the Jeep that drove into the airport, and is suffering from third-degree burns;

* Dr. Mohammed Haneef—an Indian Muslim arrested in Australia on Monday night in custody as a suspect in the attempted British terrorist bombing plots of last week;

Osama Ahmed Ibrahim, MD - deliberately let Jewish patient Joseph Applebaum die, by neglecting to ever see him in over 12 hours under his care in an emergency room at a Chicago hospital.

Dr. Ahmed Rashed - Muslim Arab resident, severed and stole the hand of a cadaver as a gift for a stripper. He got a slap on the hand and, oddly, is now employed at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Dr. Jouhaina Maleh - obstetrician, whose Dearbornistan offices were raided by the FBI in 2002, for suspected involvement in Medicaid fraud, in the case of masses of Muslim foreign aliens getting fraudulent Medicaid coverage for delivery of their babies—and, of course, U.S. citizenship for them.

America is always getting hammered by liberals and progressives about a lack of cultural sensitivity. Did they have any advice for Dr. Rashed?

At least the punishment fit the crime, sort of!   ;-)

So if one lists all the christian criminal doctors, one proves something? Take your bigotry elsewhere.
