Dr. Death redux?

“‘I immediately went to the hospital and I found a patient that was in the process of being operated on by the Russian doctor and he had conducted an operation on this patient not knowing what to do.’

Dr Jayasekera, an Australian-qualified surgeon and fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, said he completed the operation successfully and complained to a superior who asked him to supervise Dr Kotlovsky in future.

But he said that a few days later the Russian doctor ‘messed up’ a second operation and had gone against advice about how to do the procedure.

‘He ignored my instruction and carried out the difficult operation without my supervision and caused damage to the patient, so much so that the patient was evacuated to the Gold Coast Hospital for urgent emergency treatment and I understood that that patient passed away,’ Dr Jayasekera said.”
