Problem????

Incorrect. There are neuro monitors in most of these cases that would have been sounding the alarm on this. But it seems they weren't present-they couldn't have been because their occupation is created for situations like these. Also, the question about someone else noticing--yes, you would think even a scrub tech would notice the doctor inserting a screw into a muscle instead of a bone. It's pretty obvious. And of course the hardware rep is usually there so not sure how it got by SO many people.

He went to UT so I'd assume a funnel.

I was working in management at a day surgery hospital in the DFW metroplex at the time all this stuff happened.
The guy was actively recruited, pursued, by Baylor from Tennessee while he was still in med school. He worked a short time (2-3 years) at a hospital up there in TN. He got like $3.5M just to come to work for Baylor. He was plastered on Billboards and stuff for about 6 months. He had all the "right" stuff on paper.
Turns out it was all BS, he was a partier back in med school, he screwed things up in TN too (Baylor also suing prev. employer for false recommendation, yet they only confirmed what Baylor wanted to hear). He only had 3 successful surgeries EVER and because Baylor sunk so much money into him they refused to bench or fire him.
All over the med world in TN and DFW this was guy was seen popping pills, snorting powders, drinking daily heavily. And yes, this guy was also uber douche azzhole supreme.
Bottom Line: Baylor top management deserves to be in prison alongside him as co-conspirators for allowing him to continue beyond a couple months from his hire much less the 2 years+ it took for them to yank his privileges.

Off his rocker.
Prison not right answer.
Eval for mental hospital. If sane, execution.
If insane, life in mental hospital.
Do not visit him upon prison population.

Man, you have to be extra twisted to intentionally maim someone under the knife.
Put this dude in solitary and throw away the key.

He had a cocaine problem. Wonder why the article didn't mention that.

Like maybe say hey doc, you sewed his leg on backwards.
Nurses are hardly in a position to question a spinal or neurosurgeon in the middle of a surgery. Maybe an NP, if there is one there.
My wife is a first assist in some serious surgeries and the doctors are like pitchers in the middle of a no-hitter. People don't frick with their concentration and usually trust them completely.
The pitcher analogy is actually much closer than you think too
. They are superstitious about clothes, routine, etc. They have to play certain music, have their tools in a certain order on the tables, etc.

How do they know it was intentional and he wasn't just sideways from being fricked up on drugs and booze?
I agree with you, if this was intentional, that is some next level twisted shite. That's almost impossible to believe.

I never intended to be..... the doctor is a fricked up dude.... the point is that anyone that has to have anything done needs to hope the doctor is competent.....

This guy was a psychopath that did most of this on purpose. There needs to be higher accountability for hospitals, residency programs, and licensing boards. This Dr is a rare case as I feel he was intentionally hurting people, but there are definitely surgeons coming out of residency that shouldn't be operating on anyone.

There has to be more to this story. Was the doctor just whacked out on pain meds himself?
And the thread title says "intentional". How did they prove intent? Did the guy confess to things?
