There's a million podcasts out there about negligent butcher doctors. To be truly shocked, listen to Dr Death from Wondery to make a start: Dr. Duntsch https://wondery.com/shows/dr-death/season/1/

AND beware getting emergency surgery overseas.

I know a surgeon who warned that if for example you get appendicitis they'll take out other bits from you to claim more insurance money. I also know a person who appears to be a victim of this.

If you can possibly avoid it, go back home ot get surgery - assuming you live in a country with a trusthworthy medical system.

This occurred in Florida. This is but one isolated incident, yet, I can't help but notice the two examples that come to mind (this and Christopher Duntsch) both occurred in states with leadership that champion deregulation. Even if deregulation was the ultimate culprit, it seems inexcusable to me that academic/medical institutions aren't self-regulating effectively despite that.
