Flawed Physicians
A quote about a well-known doctor – CMAJ:
Visiting him was like chatting with a favourite uncle … he was a great doctor and very intelligent … he always had time to talk…. He treated you personally … he made an effort … he was not just an overworked doctor who hadn’t got time to talk.
What doctor would not covet such a glowing review? The problem is that the doctor in this case is Harold Shipman, Britain’s most prolific serial killer ever, who murdered over 250 of his patients during the 1980s and 1990s.
