we had one a few years back who was an AWFUL surgeon let alone an awful person...throwing things in the OR and pushing staff (none of which went to court) but when the doc left turns out he had lots of malpractice in many states and he hadn't been checked out because he was from this small town so he had to be wonderful. People would come in for fem/pop and end up amputated with big open wounds. This was when I did home health and we'd have to make visites 3 times daily for dressing changes. He's "retired" now in Fla with lots of cases pending. But he was so abusive to staff don't know how he ever got away with it....also have a storage room full of all of the instruments he had to have that the hospital spent $$$ for the wonderful man.
