This is the stuff nightmares are made of. Imagine this: you're putting your life and well-being in the hands of a Doctor. You trust that this Dr has all the necessary training and credentials have been verified. But little did you know, no one has done their due diligence on your behalf. And now your life is in their hands. This was the unfortunate reality for many of the patients under the care of one "Dr." Christopher Duntsch. Many would come out of surgery with partial or full paralysis, or worse, they'd die as a result of his carelessness. Thanks to the diligence of two colleagues who noticed the malpractice, his scam was uncovered and he was brought to justice. SOURCESAlso mentioned: Dr. Death Podcast
