I knew a doctor that performed surgery on this kids broken femur and left an extra pin inside of his leg that made him have so much pain when he woke up from surgery that he passed back out again, then started to turn septic. He survived the ordeal, although, at just 11 years old, the kid is traumatized forever.

When it comes to doctors and nurses who are negligent or disturbed enough to harm their patients, get away with it for awhile because hospitals or other medical facilities usually don't want to deal with anything that may hurt their bottom line. It's not unusual for businesses to take care of their wallet first, but in the medical field it truly does cost lives, like when hospitals don't want to schedule enough nurses in a shift leaving dangerous pt/nurse ratios where nurses aren't able to provide adequate care for their pts because they have to many at a time

This reminds me a bit of the Dr. Courtney case, except Dr. Courtney clearly did what he did in pursuit of money. He was a pharmacist who decided to halve medications and basically water them down so he could have twice the product. A lot of the meds he did this to were chemotherapy drugs, and there was no real way to determine the cost of life, since it couldn't really be proven that his actions were what caused the deaths that followed as a lot of patients could have died anyway. He wound up in jail regardless, but was almost released in 2020. Luckily, his release was denied due to the public outcry when people heard about it.

I'm Mexican, here the public healthcare system is horrendous. Is similar to the the European system in that it's supposed to be free, yet the work conditions, technology and sanitary conditions in many hospitals is close to a horror movie. Despite all that, for people to become surgeons they must spend more than 7 years studying, including between 4 and 5 years of residence at a hospital, and an extremely competitive and difficult national exam. What I mean by saying this is that if someone dies here is probably not because the surgeon is not qualified enough, but because a lack of resources, and if it is the surgeon's fault, is probably because he or she was overworked and been awake for 30 hours prior to an emergency surgery.
