Oh fuck, this guy. I watched the 20/20 episode on him, which you can watch here. That doc focused on the women he dated and how he came up with these elaborate cons to trick them out of their money. The medical scandal is almost in the background, but it shows how he had the same patterns in his professional and personal life of just willing lies into existence and never giving a shit about who he hurt. It really stuck with me. The way they described what happened to the patients was so harrowing, it really makes you question everything about how you can ever trust doctors.It’s a little off topic but could be of interest to you all : a doctor by the name of Paolo Macchiarini who persuaded his patients that his plastic thorax’s could eventually become flesh.. it’s a fascinating story there was an amazing and very dark documentary a while back but it seems to have disappeared from the internet. Anyway here’s a link to the story: https://www.science.org/content/art...s-prison-sentence-failed-stem-cell-treatments
There's a bit where he tricks a woman into thinking he can play the piano by pretending to play along the presets on the electric keyboard, and he convinced someone else he knew the Pope personally. It is so fucking insane.
Zack thinking Karolinska doing decades of experimental gender surgeries was obviously good, while criticizing Karolinska's lack of curiosity about Macchiarini's practices. Karolinska stopped transing kids when whistleblowers came out precisely because that's what it takes to stop medical malpractice. He's such a retard.Yet even Karolinska has grown an ethic, which makes the usual suspects very mad.
