Where is the AMA in all this?
They have the giant preamble about protecting the sick.
I guess the sick one is Scheffey.
Peer review doesn't work, the guild is way too protective of its reputation and butchers like Scheffey.
https://www.texasobserver.org/rogue-...cheffey-texas/Eric Scheffey was a highly paid orthopedic surgeon in Texas from 1982 to 2005. He was also killing and maiming people with his surgeries, public records show.
He was known around Houston for his art-filled mansion, fleet of fancy cars (at one point, he had seven Ferraris, a BMW, a Porsche, and a Mercedes), and his private jet. “He had parties where he invited the upper-crust society,” Walters said. “And he was charming and rich and he was happy to share his money.”
But within hospital walls, he was known by another name. “They called him ‘Eric the Red’ because he came out [of surgeries] completely covered in blood,” said Walters, who learned this from one of Scheffey’s colleagues.
By 2001, Scheffey topped a nationwide list of physicians who’d paid the most in malpractice settlements and was still practicing. By then, he’d made 29 payments totaling $8 million, according to a series on physician misconduct published by the Hartford Courant. By the end of his career, he’d been sued at least 72 times, records show.
His surgeries are blamed for more deaths in civil lawsuits and medical board records than were attributed to Christopher “Dr. Death” Duntsch, 51, the notorious Dallas neurosurgeon sentenced to life in 2017 for injuring an eldery patient
