The Charlie Weis malpractice trial

Accusations continue, suggesting that he rushed through pre-surgery process. The accused physicians are refusing to settle:

But Kaplan had tests to schedule: a psychiatric evaluation was necessary, and Weis needed to meet with a nutritionist. Appointments that usually took two weeks to get were set up in a day or two.

“He was busy with a number of events during that time period that related to the Patriots previous season, events related to the fact that they won the Super Bowl. But we got it done,” Kaplan said.

“Do I believe we cut corners?” Kaplan asked and answered: “Quite the opposite.”

Update –
The jury sides with the doctors. A reminder that not all unfortunate outcomes are due to medical error.
