God 🙏 bless the family for their loss 🙏
WOW……and we are in the age of where he could've pulled up a You Tube video tutorial for that ….! Duhh-uhhh….
He SHOULD NOT be allowed to be a DOCTOR anymore…NOT SORRY for Doctor…SORROW for WIFE & DEAD PATIENT…some sick people fake being doctors ? maybe that’s why the man is dead & he TOOK OUT the WRONG ORGAN…
When your Surgeon is blackout drunk, it’s not the best.
Ah, the “dr’s” that goggled their way thru med school under Covid lockdowns are killing people.
They other that of an equal opportunity hire. Probably was a bus driver before this
An investigation will most likely reveal a series of errors that led to thus mistake
Sorry is what I am, sorry to say, tired of hearing even from my own self.
He apologized .
Mistake, every mistake is not ok!
Now I am also thinking as she will be suing the hospital. So??? But???
Well, let them do inevisigation.
🤔!
Situs inversus?
How do you that? That's impossible was he hallucinating? Satan attack him. You can't live without that.
SHAME TO ABC NEWS MODERATORS. THEY ARE DISGRACEFUL.
ABC News Presidential Election Debate Moderators should be ashamed of themselves. They openly ganged up against DANALD TRUMP. Yet he defeated and put them to shame.
For this, KAMALA HARRIS will be severely punished at the Polls by American Voters.
once again KAMALA HARRIS never mentioned her BLACK father's name in the similar way she mentioned her Indian mother.
There r so many unqualified Dr's n our health care system 2day there r way 2 many missed diagnosis going on& ppl r dying. What the hell is going on.This should never happened.
The circulator should have caught this. He or she is the one that labels the specimen. Probably a crew of new grad 's or new hires with very little orientation. Yes the Doctor is ultimately responsible, but nurses & scrub techs have a responsibility to protect the patient. I am a 40 year trauma nurse & it was always at the top of my list to protect my patients. So sorry for this family
Honestly, the more I hear about these hospitals, it scares me to even think about ending up in one of them, stay out of them if you can
These doctors are crazed
Somebody probably needs that liver sad pray for you dear wife
ONLY in America 😂
I've always said that medical care in Florida was always not the best….now I know why…😮😢
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
License needs to be revoked and only reinstated until he has proven compensates and signs out by an experienced surgeon
I hate going to that hospital
That's the hospital that my baby girl was born at 12 years ago. It used to be a great hospital.
I heard through the grapevine. He. Has made other mistakes as well.
I think there’s a lot more doctors that are this stupid than you know. Run from them.
This sounds like fake news, even there’s no way that he could be that stupid even I know where they are located
Note to self: Never ever go to that Hospital! 😮
Was this a surgeon with a fake certificate????
I believe everyone in that operation room was drunk or stupid
