Woman Secretly Records Her Doctors Insulting Her During Surgery

I'm a nurse. We were taught back in college that when talking in front of the patient to always assume the patient can hear you, whether you're in a coma, knocked out with anesthesia or even deaf. The fact that these licensed surgeons and nurses can't even follow basic education on patient's right to considerate and respectful care is a big disappointment.

The nurses made fun of my mother when she was dying of liver failure. They said she brought it upon herself by drinking alcohol. She never had a drink in her life. It was the pills they had been giving her for over twenty years. RIP mom

I am a retired ICU nurse that has treated many patients that were in comas and I was always taught that they might be able to hear what I was saying. Indeed that was true because I had a patient tell me that I helped them live through the night because of how kind I talked to them and they heard me pray for them. The patient was intubated and put in a drug induced coma but could hear everything going on!

My doctor wouldn't do anything to figure out why I was in pain. For 10 months she kept giving me different pills to mask the pain. I told her I needed actual tests done and she left the room for a minute. I heard her through a vent telling her co-worker I was a whiney bitch. I left and went to the ER. Told them what happened and they did an ultrasound and sent me for a scope and found out I had a bleeding ulcer. They moved me to a different doctor, thank God.

No matter what, never have beef with these people: 1- your cook 2- your barber 3- your surgeon

Whether she was a handful or not there's still a such thing as professionalism

I had a motorcycle accident and I was in coma for almost 2 mos and I recall several conversations going in and out of consciousness, specifically the one where my 3 Drs called my parents into my room, away from my family, to tell them to say their goodbyes as they couldn’t do anything else for me, besides keeping comfortable. That devastated me and in “my mind” I tried to yelled for them to please don’t give up on me. 😢 it was pure desperation and sadness My parents refused to believe them and they took me home and with guidance from another Dr, I was up and jumping in less the 2 weeks, like nothing happened. Never assume that because someone is sleeping, in coma or under anesthesia that they can’t hear you.

"That just doesn't seem like the thing to say to the person that's going to do your surgery" -That sent fucking chills down my spine.

"that's not the type of thing you'd want to say to someone doing your surgery" wow they must feel SO much control.

“That doesn’t sound like something you should say to the person doing your surgery” is... is that a threat? Omg. This makes me terrified to have surgery.

Being a medical student in India , when we were on posting in labour room,, I heard our senior madam scolding a patient who was crying loudly during labour pain" what were you thinking while making this".It was such a humiliation to a pregnant lady. Felt so sorry for her to went through it.

I work at a hospital and I can tell you I’ve heard the most disgusting things come out of doctors and nurses mouths and they face no repercussions after due to their occupation.

I was in a coma for two weeks, and as I came to I was terrified, disoriented, confused and in pain. I was way too weak to get up or move, and my speech was slurred. I know I was a handful, I remember constantly pressing the call button because I was terrified and didnt understand where I was or why I was there. The nurses in the ICU did not like me when I was like this. they made absolutely no effort to calm me down or reason with me. Instead they moved the call light out of my reach and closed the door and blinds and ignored me unless they had to see me. It was horrible to me and only made me even more terrified. I tried to tell my mom but she insisted I was just hallucinating. Some health care workers are simply cruel. The rotten few overshadow the true Angels.

All surgeries should be recorded by the hospital, just to keep medical staff professional.

They should start recording every surgical procedure...it protects the staff and the patient.

I worked in a hospital OR for over 10 years, and I can tell you for a fact that despite saving lives and being good at it, SOME doctors/surgeons are some of the worst human beings you will ever encounter. I've seen doctors launch instruments across the room and even at the surgical techs when an instrument breaks.

Immature on both sides

“Did you see that belly button” Why would someone join the medical field if different looking bodies amuse/shock them??

My son recently graduated and he is very disappointed with the disposition these medical professional have with their patients. He says they call it "compassion burnout" but some of them seem to never had any in the first place

A doctor last year said about my dying mother in front of me (then 15 years old) that she doesn't care about her (mom) and her family and that she is done with her. After she died they left her... Without any professional steps to make sure she's actually dead. It breaks my heart, because my mom was a doctor too and she used to put so much love in her job. Not only this one doctors but many others, through my life I've been through so many stuff that made me hate doctors sooooo much
