Pretty sure the 41% is coming. It might take a while but I don't think Yaniv is going to be here for that much longer. He's already this depressed 4 months in.

We barely even knew her, RIP

 

[Peacock Angel]

All the doctors who do this are in the wrong morally but they will probably get away with it legally. Anyone who profits off this is monstrous because if they enforced their guidlines or common sense, the number of surgeries would decrease significantly.

Gotta make that bank somehow. The pharmaceutical and healthcare industries make $200+ billion a year off trannies these days.

 

[Dr. Troon Lagoon]

He already has DM Type 2 this young and at that stage surgeons thought it a good idea to go ahead with any surgery and specifically this one?
Simply amazing. Who here is dumber, Yaniv or the Docs, either way both deserve a slow clap for stupidity.

No wonder he did not notice as necrosis and neuropathy to already damaged nerve tissue from surgery ensured that he would not feel anything. If his DM is that poorly controlled at such an early age it becomes a real possibility of a race between him wearing a necklace of rope or actually dying before reaching 50 due to DM.

The clit is the first to go, the rest will be surgeons slicing him piece bu piece into the grave…

 

[Agent of Z.O.G.]

Hey Yaniv your pocket fell.
Did I say pocket? I mean your TRANSGINA

 

[Angry New Ager]

I believe the same thing might have happened to Terra "Fire" Jones. He bled all over his mortified mom's furniture.

Richard's only had himself catrated via an orchiectomy (removal of the testicles, and possibly the scrotum). He had a shrimpdick to begin with, and between atrophy due to estrogen use and being buried in fat, it was already useless even before castration.

I don't know how the hell he managed to re-open the surgical site and end up bleeding all over his mom's couch (unless he just needed to coom that badly and got careless). But then again, it's Richard, who has the Reverse Midas Touch—everything he touches turns to shit.

Back to Yaniv—this kind of body horror could not be visited upon a more appropriate subject. I've seen lots of GRS horror stories that still manage to break my crusty little heart because the effects are so life-destroying. But not for Yaniv. His whole mutilated undercarriage can just drop right off for all I care. He's an uncontrolled diabetic? GOOD. Lord Beetus diddling his manhole just makes things more likely to rot off.

ETA:

The sheer lack of any kind of medical ethics among GRS surgeons is well-documented and appalling. They're performing experimental surgeries on mentally-ill people, developing their techniques one patient at a time. There are no standard practices, and the surgeons all have their own jealously-guarded secret techniques, something you don't see in any other area of surgery.

It's Mengele-tier shit; I've said time and again that this is our era's lobotomies and forced sterilizations, and history will not look back kindly on it.

It does not help that the activist lunatic fringe in trans community keeps banging the drum that these procedures are "life-saving, gender-affirming care," totally necessary because TIMs might kill themselves if they can't get a manhole installed. It's this same lunatic fringe that gets subreddits like Neovagina Disasters banned, and silences those who have had bad results and regret the surgery.

I am not a medical professional in any capacity, but even I know that the effects of uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes are horrifying, and that a diagnosis is cause for genuine alarm. You do not fuck with that shit. But Jonny-boy has just been letting it run rampant, and I don't believe for a minute that he's going to clean up his act and get his BG under control.

He's one of those people where I'd be totally okay with somebody walking up and putting a well-placed bullet in him, but if he's going to take a decade or two to die slowly and horribly from poorly-controlled diabetes? I've no objection to that.

I wonder how common this shit is and if people ever regret transitioning afterwards?

 

[IAmNotAlpharius]

I agree with you! I’m just wondering the legal position

I didn’t mean to sound negative towards you if that’s how I came across. I agree with what you’re saying.

I’m not a lawyer so I can be wrong on this, but I suspect the doctors are untouchable in Yanivs case since he’s a lolcow and they probably have themselves covered. In most cases I think they’ll get away with it, unfortunately.

 

[BallBuster]

I wonder how common this shit is and if people ever regret transitioning afterwards?

Most regret it. They find the dumbest ways to cope. Mostly lies about “full female body orgasms” and all kinds of bullshit about “nerves waking up” months to years after the chop.

 

[Chan the Wizard]

I wonder how common this shit is and if people ever regret transitioning afterwards?

Well, the fact that transitioning does nothing to lower the suicide rates of the mentally ill men, I’m going to say there’s a high probability that they regret horribly mutilating themselves to the point they can no longer even masturbate to their fetish.

Executive Summary​

Canada has a single-payer health insurance scheme that covers virtually all residents. Most physicians are in private practice and they bill the insurance plans for their services. Being in private practice, they require medical liability insurance. This is usually obtained through a professional organization. However, physicians are reimbursed for a large portion of their insurance premiums by provincial governments. Fees are lower than in the United States for a number of reasons. Two of these are that Canada’s highest courts have set limits on awards and the country’s liability laws make establishing professional negligence more difficult. Another is that the physicians’ insurance company defends lawsuits very vigorously.

The Canadian Health Care System​

Although Canada is often characterized as a country that has “socialized” medicine, its system differs considerably from countries in which physicians are essentially employed by the state or the entire medical profession is under unified state control. In Canada, most medical practitioners are in private practice just as they are in the United States. Most physicians have their own offices, set their own schedules, and see patients who have chosen to come to them on a regular basis or for a particular condition. Canadians are not assigned doctors by the government or an insurance plan. They do have choices.[1]

Where the Canadian system differs most significantly from that of the United States is in how health insurance is provided. In Canada, all of the provinces have a single health insurance program that covers virtually all residents. For example, Ontario has the Ontario Health Insurance Plan[2] and Quebec has the Quebec Health Insurance Plan.[3] The federal government subsidizes these provincial health insurance plans through its general revenues. There are no separate payroll deductions to fund the health care plans and Canada does not have a separate old-age health care program like Medicare in the United States.

When the provincial health insurance plans were first created in the 1960’s and 1970’s, the federal government paid for about half of the provincial plans’ costs. This percentage fell by more than half in the 1990’s, but has gone back up somewhat in recent years.[4] The provincial contributions to the plans are also mostly from general revenues. However, the largest province, Ontario, and a couple of other provinces also impose a levy on employers to help pay for their programs.

As can be seen from the above, the Canadian system is more accurately described as a “single-payer” system than a “socialized” one. However, even this description needs to be qualified. Canadian physicians are not required to submit bills for their fees to the provincial health insurance plans. They can “opt out” of the systems and bill their patients directly. However, physicians who do decline to participate in a provincial plan must operate entirely outside it as they are generally prohibited from billing the insurance plan for some of their services and patients for others. In other words, physicians cannot be partial participants. For this reason, the vast majority of Canada’s physicians are enrolled in the provincial health insurance plans and earn virtually all of their income from the bills they submit to them.

Canada’s provincial health insurance plans are generally similar, but do have some differences. For example, the Province of Quebec has more generous prescription drug coverage than any other province. However, the similarities are far greater than the differences. One of the major reasons for this is that in order to qualify for federal subsidies, provincial health insurance plans must adhere to the guidelines set out in the Canada Health Act.[5] The one guideline that has been the subject of the most controversy over the years has concerned “extra-billing.” The Canada Health Act does not allow the provinces to permit physicians to bill patients for a portion of their services through co-payments or other types of additional fees. The federal government has remained firm in this position for many years on the grounds that it does not want to see the creation of two-tiered systems in which patients who could afford to pay for a portion of their health care would receive more comprehensive coverage and preferential treatment compared to those who could not afford additional health costs. In the past, some provinces have lost a portion of their transfer funds for allowing some extra-billing, but a number would still like to be able to allow for extra-billing in certain cases in order to help keep their costs down without having to pay a penalty in the form of reduced transfer payments.

Canada’s provincial health insurance plans do not cover all services. Dental care, eye exams, and cosmetic surgery are three examples of services that generally are not covered. However, most Canadian employees have supplemental medical insurance provided by their employers that give at least partial coverage for these services. For example, supplemental insurance will usually cover one eye exam and one pair of glasses per year. Many collective bargaining agreements provide for supplemental insurance. In other cases, supplemental insurance is offered as a non-mandated work benefit, but it is not required.

Liability Insurance​

Canadian physicians who are in private practice or work for hospitals are required to obtain medical liability insurance. Such insurance is available through the Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA). Insurance premiums or “membership fees” are based upon the type of work a physician performs and the region in which he or she practices. The three fee regions are Quebec, Ontario, and the Rest of Canada. The CMPA has published Fee Schedules.[6] Fees are not based upon a physician’s record and are not increased for a history of complaints or on account of claims paid.

Membership fees paid to the CMPA give physicians insurance coverage and a right to representation in medical malpractice lawsuits. However, provincial governments reimburse physicians for at least a portion of their membership fees. These arrangements are not generally made public. However, a recently released Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of Health, the Ontario Medical Association, and the CMPA reveals that physicians are currently reimbursed for about 83 percent of their membership fees.[7] It has been reported that the Ontario government paid about Can$112 million to reimburse physicians for medical malpractice fees in 2008.[8] Government officials in Ontario have explained that the purpose of the reimbursement program is to encourage physicians to practice in the province and not to move to another province or the United States where average incomes may be higher. Critics contend that because the CMPA’s fees are not based upon a physician’s record, the system does little to penalize physicians who are found to be liable for malpractice even on multiple occasions.[9] Physicians who have committed acts of malpractice may, however, be disciplined by their provincial licensing body. Discipline can range from suspensions to losses of the privilege to continue practicing medicine.

The CMPA has also been criticized for defending medical malpractice suits extremely vigorously and turning down reasonable offers to settle claims to discourage other lawsuits on a number of occasions.[10] One judge reportedly referred to the CMPA as pursuing a “scorched earth policy.”[11] In Canada, a losing party is generally required to pay about two-thirds of a successful party’s legal fees. Since the CMPA often incurs large legal expenses in defending claims, this is an additional disincentive to persons who believe that they have been injured through malpractice from bringing an action for damages.

One other feature of Canadian law that tends to discourage parties from suing physicians for malpractice is that the Supreme Court has set out guidelines that effectively cap awards for pain and suffering in all but exceptional cases. In a trilogy of decisions released in 1978, the Supreme Court established a limit of Can$100,000 on general damages for non-pecuniary losses such as pain and suffering, loss of amenities and enjoyment of life, and loss of life expectancy.[12] The Supreme Court did state that there may be extraordinary circumstances in which this amount could be exceeded, and courts have allowed the figure to be indexed for inflation so that the current suggested upper limit on awards for non-pecuniary losses is close to $300,000.[13] Nevertheless, the flexible cap on non-pecuniary losses is a major disincentive to persons considering whether they should sue a physician for malpractice and for lawyers to specialize in or seek out malpractice cases.

The Supreme Court of Canada has also limited the types of cases in which punitive damages may be awarded, although it has allowed as much as Can$1 million in punitive damages in an extraordinary case.[14] A Canadian law firm has summarized the holding in this leading case concerning punitive damages as follows:

1. Punitive damages are very much the exception rather than the rule;
2. Imposed only if there has been high-handed, malicious, arbitrary or highly reprehensible misconduct that departs to a marked degree from ordinary standards of decent behaviour.
3. Where they are awarded, punitive damages should be assessed in an amount reasonably proportionate to such factors as the harm caused, the degree of the misconduct, the relative vulnerability of the plaintiff and any advantage or profit gained by the defendant,
4. Having regard to any other fines or penalties suffered by the defendant for the misconduct in question.
5. Punitive damages are generally given only where the misconduct would otherwise be unpunished or where other penalties are or are likely to be inadequate to achieve the objectives of retribution, deterrence and denunciation.
6. Their purpose is not to compensate the plaintiff, but
7. to give a defendant his or her just desert (retribution), to deter the defendant and others from similar misconduct in the future (deterrence), and to mark the community’s collective condemnation (denunciation) of what has happened.
8. Punitive damages are awarded only where compensatory damages, which to some extent are punitive, are insufficient to accomplish these objectives, and
9. they are given an amount that is no greater than necessary to rationally accomplish their purpose.
10. While normally the state would be the recipient of any fine or penalty for misconduct, the plaintiff will keep punitive damages as a "windfall" in addition to compensatory damages.
11. Judges and juries in our system have usually found that moderate awards of punitive damages, which inevitably carry a stigma in the broader community, are generally sufficient.[15]

Thus, punitive damages in tort actions in Canada are relatively rare.

Negligence​

Despite the above factors that discourage medical malpractice lawsuits in Canada, there are numerous reported cases in which doctors, hospitals, and health care professionals have been found liable for acts of negligence in the delivery of health care. In order to be successful, a plaintiff must show that the defendant owed him or her a duty of care, the defendant did not deliver the standard of care owed, the plaintiff’s injuries were reasonably foreseeable, and the defendant’s breach of the duty of care was the proximate cause of the plaintiff’s injuries.[16] An error of judgment is not necessarily negligence even if it causes injury.[17]

Common types of negligence actions are as follows:

1. Failure to attend a patient
2. Failures in diagnosis
3. Failures in re-diagnosis
4. Failures in referral or consultation
5. Failure to communicate with other physicians
6. Failure to protect or warn third parties
7. Failure to report abuse
8. Substandard treatment[18]

Hospitals can be held liable under the doctrines of vicarious liability or direct liability for the conduct of their staffs.[19]

Concluding Remarks​

Controversy over the effect that malpractice lawsuits are having on the delivery of health care have never risen in Canada to the levels that they have in the United States. Awards against physicians have, on a per capita basis, been much less frequent than in the United States and awards have generally been much smaller for similar injuries. There are a number of factors as to why this is the case. Proving negligence can be harder, the CMPA defends malpractice lawsuits very vigorously, there is a flexible cap on non-pecuniary losses, and punitive damages are seldom awarded. Nevertheless, there is a growing body of case law respecting medical malpractice that demonstrates a tendency of the courts and juries to be somewhat more open to claims that a physician should be held liable for committing an act of negligence that causes injury to a person to whom he or she owes a duty of care.

Oh god, the schadenfreude levels are beyond anything I could have ever imagine! It's like taking a huge whiff of nitrous oxide over here!

While this COULD be an excuse to never have to bring up his faked neovagoo again in the future, I really don't believe that anyone would subject themself to this level of humiliation if it wasn't true. Everything now follows a pattern: rushed recovery after surgery and not caring for it properly leading to to fucking parts dropping off. I can only imagine what his mangled meat must smell like, and he probably never dialates it from pain.

Our boy has made himself a nullo!!!

I've never been so happy to be wrong in my life. If he's not able to get off anymore, the frustration is going to build and build until we get the ultimate Yaniv chimp out. Now let's just hope he accidentally perforates his colon next time he dilates.
