Oh, no doubt. And a ‘here’s what we’re going to be doing today’ conversation seems like a pretty low bar to expect before going into surgery. I’ve been in surgery a couple of times, and so far I’ve had that conversation 100% of the time with the operating surgeons.

That is horrifying. And then to only get a suspension? They should both lose their licenses and the one guy should be tried and sent to jail for altering the form.

*And falsified documents of consent AFTERWARDS. They should both permanently lose their licenses.

Probably it is a placeholder for the patient’s surname.

Once again, the foxes protecting the hen house. Doctors should have lost their licenses for years, if not forever. They ruined a persons life, why should they get away with just a slap on the wrist? ‘Accidents’ such as this should not be swept under the table. Serious consequences should be forced upon these shameful,…

Fucking hell. Excuse my French, but seriously nothing less extreme is applicable here. Both of these doctors should be struck off, and Capece should serve a prison sentence for altering the consent form. There have been far too many cases of doctors taking the piss with people’s wellbeing in situations where patients…

A metoidioplasty is a surgery that some trans men opt for in place of a phalloplasty (the creation of a phallus). It largely involves cutting some ligaments that hold the clitoral structure close to the body - gives it some greater length, basically. You can google it; it’s the more common option for trans men who…

I’m just thinking in terms of behavior - particularly due to the alarming nature of the descriptions of discipline - these are very different groups. And while yes, language is language, etiology also matters. For example, I’m going to approach someone with recently acquired Broca’s aphasia due to a neurological…

It doesn’t confuse the issue, it gives necessary context. That physical abuse which you’re so happy to pass over as commonplace (as though the commonness of child abuse in any way reduces the urgency of calling it out) enabled the sexual abuse that occurred, just as the nonsexual abuse in usa gymnastics caused the…

I thought it was feral pigs? 

One of the great brainwashing successes in modern history is how far right media has convinced large swathes of the country that those evil brown people are coming for their small towns, like anybody would give half a shit about rundown small towns in the middle of nowhere. Besides, basic economics and the opioid…

To steal a line from Jim Jeffries’ gun control bit: “Jeez, you think a lot of yourself if you think everyone’s coming to murder you.” 

You’re a terrible shot and or small penis disorder, two things I’m sure this girl’s grandfather suffers from.

Society lives in fear of what they don’t understand? We’re afraid of letting people roam around with loaded weapons because we don’t understand your “culture”? You’re the psychos who are so afraid of encountering a terrorist attack in the produce section you feel the need to carry a loaded gun to go to the eff’n…

To own the libs. D’uh!

I’ll fly you there in my 747. The hospital has a helipad on top, right? Gotta land somewhere.

Don't be so blind. These folks know them deers are all radical Mooselims. Vigilance! 

Just in case you wanted the honest answer to the question...

So just because one person has been taught how to do something properly, and does it responsibly, means everyone should be able to do the same unchecked?
