    Doctors are nice, right?

    Wrong, Doctors are normal human being who happen to have spent 6 years learning the same subject, I spent 2 years supporting doctors surgeries and unfortunately the bad ones outweigh the good ones, i always advise anyone who as a medical issue if you have any doubts get a second opinion

    I could tell you about the doctor that spends his tuesday afternoons looking at Porn but thats another story

    That's because :
    The court had acknowledged a belief that Piers had not acted out of malice, but had made mistakes in an attempt to help patients while he was overwhelmed. The defendant said that increasing profits had not motivated his errors.
    Oh well if he can't get a job in Germany he can always come to the UK to do a GP on-call service.

    You obviously haven't met the people I have if you think doctors are nice.

    Though the only good thing in the UK is that there are loads of different people involved in health care with different affiliations who will snitch on each other.

    The really weird bit is that despite this:

    In one of the more notorious medical scandals in recent years, the court pronounced the 54-year-old owner and head doctor of a private clinic guilty guilty on two counts of negligent homicide and 21 counts of bodily harm.
    ...
    He surgically removed appendixes, a gallbladder and a kidney without medical cause or permission from patients, the court said. In another case a woman died because he broke off treatment, while another was subjected to unnecessary chemotherapy.
    His punishment is:
    sentenced to four years in a minimum security facility followed by a four-year ban on practising medicine, a Mönchengladbach court said Monday
    In other words he is allowed to practice again one day.
