Doctors do f[inks]uck up more than is polite to remember, of course. Human error is what it is, and there are some people in all fields who are frankly no good at their job.
But much of the problematic aspect to all of this isn't doctors so much as relatives. Which is an even less polite thought, I think.
Wouldn't relatives be generally biased in the other direction though? I'd imagine it's more likely that they refuse to let one go rather than push him to.
Not if there's money at stake.
It's a class issue.
