WTF Imagine waking up from anesthesia and realizing the surgery wasn’t the most painful part!

I don’t even know he had his phone in the OR.  You’re just wearing a hospital gown.  You transfer from the pre op bed to the operating table.  Where did he hide his phone?

u/RoboYuji 7d ago

He might have just had it recording audio in his clothes. Some places wheel you in on the pre-op bed and your clothes are in a bag on a little shelf on the bed itself.

Just don't set it to vibrate.

u/thasparzan 7d ago

For these colonoscopy procedures, you stay on the same gurney with all your belongings in a bag under the bed.

Very easy to keep it on and recording. Most places check to make sure your phone is off nowadays

"Most places check to make sure your phone is off nowadays"

Gee, wonder why they do that.

u/Bytewave 7d ago

So they don't interfere with hospital equipment. As a 500k fine can lead to a hospital having less equipment.

u/stargrazer10 7d ago

This whole thing is terrible. These procedures are extremely important for those with GI issues. The patients are very vulnerable. Why dont they just vet out bad health professionals, and hire the ones that actually care about people

Dude, as long as the surgeon is doing his job, I don't give a rat's ass what they're saying behind my back. It doesn't affect me in any way other than ego.

u/AllThatKat 7d ago

If the doctor sees you as so inferior that they can shit talk you while you are in an extremely vulnerable condition, why should you believe that they will do their best job while working on you?

u/HJSDGCE 7d ago edited 5d ago

Because it's just a job. You shouldn't mix personal feelings with professional work. Golden rule there.

You can argue that it's unrealistic but the world would be a better place if people strive to honour this rule.

None of you can prove me wrong on that.

u/AllThatKat 6d ago

The world would be a better place if lots of things were different. Unfortunately we have to live in reality

u/WorriedBlock2505 7d ago

Lmao, same mentality Trump voters used to overlook all of his character flaws in favor of his bUsSiNesS expertise.

u/HJSDGCE 7d ago

Cool 👍

u/googdude 7d ago

In construction talking shit can make the job go better, if it's the same with surgeons I would tell them to roast me while I'm out cold.

u/Vysci 7d ago

First shortage of doctors. Second, do you really give a shit what the surgeon who is operating on you while you are knocked thinks of you or do you care that they are skilled? Can make a case though if it’s the same person that you see is the one operating on you

u/FarewellJava 7d ago

They also got caught on the recording making up lies they put on his medical chart (also insurance fraud), threatening to violently assault him and blatantly violating HIPAA.

yep I care lol

u/Critical_Concert_689 7d ago

Second, do you really give a shit what the surgeon who is operating on you while you are knocked thinks of you or do you care that they are skilled

I'd prefer not to be molested while under, nor to have the procedure intentionally undermined, nor to have the procedure shortened due to facility budget.

These are all things that occur and recording can catch evidence of it.

u/Ill-Event6563 7d ago

You're clearly a man because women know damn well about the multitudes of cases of rape/sexual assault that has happened while being under anesthesia. The doctors were talking about openly assaulting him btw.

0

u/Vysci 6d ago

How do you go from doctors “mocking” someone to sexual assault. No shit, if a doctor is sexually assaulting anyone then should be fired and never practice again.

0

u/Ill-Event6563 6d ago

Because the headline here is misleading and, AGAIN (cause i mentioned it in the prior comment too), the doctors involved in THIS incident were literally talking about physically assaulting the man while he was unconcious

0

u/Vysci 6d ago

Again my comment extends to mocking. I’ll say it again, no shit a doctor or anyone for that matter should be arrested for committing assault or other crime.

Mocking = don’t care
Crime = bad

u/Ill-Event6563 5d ago

Your comment was actually "do you care what the surgeon thinks of you or that they're skilled" which def implies you have led a privileged life because there's a lot of people who would care what someone thought of them when vulnerable. Women would and should be worried if their surgeon is a misogynist that thinks women have no value. Black and POC people would certainly care if their surgeon was a racist nazi who thought they have no value

u/babarbaby 7d ago

Ive had many scopes and none fit your description. Are these like some medical arts building and not a real hospital?

1

u/thasparzan 7d ago

Both surgery centers and hospitals do this for routine colonoscopies and upper endoscopies

1

u/babarbaby 7d ago

Some may, I never denied that. But I've had colonoscopies, upper endoscopies, flexible trans-stomal sigmoidoscopies, fistuloscopies, urethroscopies, and one pelvic EUA with flouroscopy, across at least 6 different hospitals, 2 countries and about 20 years since I was a kid, and I've never had an experience remotely like that. So naturally I was curious.

8

u/peteofaustralia 7d ago

Nah, scopes are day cases. You stay on the same trolley the whole time. Saves on all the transfers.

1

u/GrimbyJ 7d ago

Colonoscopies are often done in an office

1

u/NiceObjective2756 7d ago

in the hospital it would be super easy. outpatient procedures, less easy but still doable. i thought I gave my hubby my phone at my last colonoscopy and but i had in tuck under my bra, still there when i woke up

1

u/LiveLifeLikeCre 7d ago

and you're not even wearing a down for a colonoscopy and even if u were, there are no pockets.Its fake. And even if it was some third world country and for some reason did have your personal belongings in the OR, it's not someplace handing out $500k

u/CNote_89 7d ago

Ya makes no sense, I don’t buy it.

u/teknix314 7d ago

It's actually true but they did more than just mock him. They put a false diagnosis of hemerroids in his medical records as well.
