How many surgeries have had bad outcome without surgeons being penalised? before any procedure, patients have been warned about risks and they had to sign a consent form. Here we are talking about brain cancer, which is already a death sentence, so Dr Teo is their last hope; and if they couldn’t get a better result, is it his fault? Already we have shortage of doctors, why would AMA give such a talented in-demand surgeon this despicable treatment? Let AMA remember Dr Teo is doing Australia a huge favor, he’s not begging for permission and he’s right not to put up with this any longer. With such talent, he won’t have any problem operating in other much richer countries who probably has head- hunted him much earlier already.
Has Dr Teo been targeted because of jealousy and ego of less competent surgeons? perhaps maybe of his ethnicity?
