  • Watch the second half of this episode review on Legal Eagle’s channel here: • Lawyer & Doctor React ...
    Legal Eagle and I went head to head last year to see which was harder, Med School or Law School. We decided to bury the hatchet this time and join our forces to react to the popular medical malpractice episode of Grey’s Anatomy, Season 10 Episode 9 “Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word”. I brought my medical knowledge about a surgery gone wrong for a snowboarder who loses his legs above the knee. Devin Stone brought his legal expertise to break down what was accurate and what was fake during the trial of Dr. Callie Torres.

      That's what I really appreciate about [fellow] Greys fans! Most are fully aware & honest about the flaws; Greys fans know that its just one gigantic medical joke punchline & they aren't afraid to admit that openly. It's not like fans of other shows, or an even better example, like SO many fans of CZcamsrs who don't even want to face mistakes that CZcamsr has made, even if they have fully, publicly admitted to making them.

      It's a good rule of thumb that when you are around people who know more than you, it's wise to glean what you can from them. In the trades it's downright subconscious. If I'm working on a mechanical issue and my boss shows up, it's almost instinct to hand them the wrench.

    They had to stop for a full minute because i couldn't stop laughing.
    The (understandably) sheepish looks the dentist and their assistant had while trying not to laugh too, was making me laugh more.

      Shows what a good dentist is worth.
      And every time someone doesn't want to go because they fear the unpleasantness and pain I can only reply with the fact that they are already in pain and it won't get better on it's own. Rather it will get worse.
      Do it now while the issue is small and most likely won't require some easy treatment instead of waiting for it to become worse and might require pulling the tooth.

    This is a really hard episode to watch. My dad was an amputee and he went into the hospital for a gallbladder surgery. When he was in the surgical ICU he complained that his (remaining)leg felt off. The nurse ignored him and left him for the night. When my mom went to visit the next day his leg had turned black, because one of the air tubes was wrapped around his leg tightly. They had to amputate his leg, and was placed in the medical ICU. Between the two surgeries it was to much for his body and he passed 2 weeks later. To this day I still can't go in that hospital. We never sued, or went after the hospital either. I appreciate the work the doctors did to help him after that nurse made that mistake, but it doesn't stop me from distrusting that hospital staff.

    I had surgery as a kid on my kidney. The lead surgeon apparently (I found out years later from my parents, cause I was 8 when it all happened) while operating on me noticed there was something wrong with him and the next day he went in and got checked and turns out he had a brain tumor. because of this, the hospital was super worried about my kidney (and probably being sued, both my parents are lawyers) and I was checked out a bunch of times and they had a second surgeon look at it and tons of follow ups (that my parents told me later was because everyone was worried about the doctor's skills with the tumor, turns out it was fine) and 17 years later my kidney does not have any problems (and most importantly the doctor is still alive and practicing, last I checked). So yeah, it is weird that no one checked this guy especially knowing it was the doctor's first time doing the procedure.

A good lawyer would have made people question why someone healthy would be seeking out a hip replacement. A medical professional could see all of those factors as separate things and view someone who leads an active lifestyle as overall healthy despite those things, but the average person is going to question how healthy someone is if they have all these things going on.

      Did it ever occur to you that he is speaking from the perspective of the plaintiff's representative? A "good lawyer" advocates for the interests of their client and tries to win their client's case. He's trying to sway the jury's opinion in favor of his client, not arrive at the "logically correct" answer. If he did the latter and his client lost, he would NOT be a "good lawyer."
      Also, whether or not you considered him "healthy" to start with is irrelevant, because the doctors did screw up. Badly.

      @@GoddoDoggo The hypothetical "good lawyer" I was speaking of was the defense, not the plaintiff. Clearly, the lawyer who was arguing is trying to argue for his client. However, it is unwise to ask questions you don't know the answer to or make arguments that the jury may not agree with. My original point was lawyers dislike logical jurors, meaning they will do their best to remove them during jury selection. It is often easier and more reliable to make emotional arguments. Even if the facts are on your side, you want to be able to tell a story that feels right, look at what happened in the OJ trial. Also, fictional lawyers get to have a sterling reputation no matter how bad their arguments are.

    I have had several hospital stays and I can say every stay I was never left alone for more than a few hours. There was a time that I was admitted to the ICU with a kidney infection that had become septic, and there were always people checking on me all the time. Just as a side story, when I was taken off of morphine and the painkillers that i was put on were not sufficient to manage my pain. And during this time a nurse came in and forced me to sit up at a 90° angle by move my beds angle, which was excruciating and I started to cry uncontrollably I couldn't even speak. That was when the nurse started stating that I "need to stop crying" that I'm "disturbing other patient that are in worse off than me" and that I'm "not going to get any morphine." This whole time I can't stop crying and I'm just glaring at her because I can't even speak with how much pain I was in. Finally she put my bed down to around 45° and the pain was more tolerable. Needless to say when the doctor came in to check on me I informed him of the nurses actions and requested that she never come into my room again, and the doctor gave me a slightly stronger dose of pain killers, which allowed me to recover with less pain. I did see the nurse again, but she was always leaving my room while I was waking up, I never had to interact with her again. I'm happy that my doctor listened to me. Moral of the story, if you have a problem with something makes sure you speak up to someone, so that you can get the best care, people can't read minds.

      Dude thing is, I don't know who needs to hear this but period pains shouldn't be too intense. They can be bad, but if you legitimately feel like your guts are being scrambled and the pain is on a whole other level, you may have issues with your reproductive organs. It's not supposed to be that painful. It's only supposed to feel like cramps, that's why they're called cramps. So don't let anyone tell you you're overreacting to period pain. If it's too much, then it's too much. Get it checked.
      Also, if you've had normal levels of period pain all your life, and then one day it's so painful you can't stand it, you still aren't overreacting. Get it checked. You know how it feels like usually, and this is not usual.

    • @HappyBeezerStudios
      @HappyBeezerStudios Před rokem +11

      I think the biggest mistake the patient here did was not coming back in with these symptoms. If fever stays and even rises and a wound shows clear signs of not healing as expected, back to the doc.
      I guess we all had that minor cut or bruise. So we know how a wound is supposed to heal. If a wound looks weird and smells off, there is a clear sign that something isn't going how it's supposed to. And especially with a wound of this size you would double check to keep it clean.
      And in case of this patient, his livelihood depended on a quick and clean recovery. So why would he disregard his health like this. It can't be for financial reasons (not towards the US healthcare system) because the patient admitted to the initial operation on his own will. An operation that wasn't necessary to save his life or drastically improve his condition.

    • @kenaanderson7512
      @kenaanderson7512 Před rokem +1

      Coming back 10 days after is actually pretty standard for most orthopedic surgeries. Even with total joint replacements, if the patient is still in the hospital they will be rounded on, otherwise we usually just call them and they have their first post-op about 10-12 days later. They contact us if they notice any signs of infection or if home health, if they have it, notices anything.

    • @TheHaighus
      @TheHaighus Před rokem +5

      Really depends on the type and scale of the operation. I had a finger tendon repair under general anaesthetic- was discharged the same day and not seen again for a week when the dressing was due to come off. The operation itself was small so not risky to send home immediately.
      A total hip replacement is a much bigger procedure, usually needs at least an overnight stay, and is rare to go home the day afterwards. Most problems occur in the first couple of days so they get picked up before discharge.
      Elective surgeries are also much less risky than emergency or urgent surgeries for acute injuries, so the inpatient stay differs between them.
      But generally, early discharge is good because hospitals are dangerous places if you don't need them (higher risk of complications like drug-resistant infections or venous-thromboembolism). It is usually pretty obvious if a surgery is healing poorly and getting reviewed from outpatients is typically very quick when post-op.

You will often be faced with situations where you know the legal statutes but in order to make sense of the material facts you will require at least a surface understanding of the fields involved. So lawyers have to broaden their general knowledge whether they like it or not, and medical malpractice is something that is topically discussed in law school.

First, I’m sure a doctor would at least admit him for the super high fever and weird rash, right? And then, she comes back cause the fever jumped to 104. They literally call her crazy because she came back??? She literally had to fight just for him to be admitted. Apparently he had Kawasaki disease (or something) which SHE suggested, and it could’ve been diagnosed if they just checked his eyes, which were red (he was sleeping through all the visits, which I’m sure should’ve been another red flag that it wasn’t strep).

She was told numerous times it was just fat. Surprise! Cancer.

We never see the doctors (Jo or Meredith) talk to or examine the boy, only talk to the mother. If they did, off screen, I'm sure they might've caught it.

I'd like to see their take on the Good Doctor's episode (or story arc, I'd say) where a baby passed away from improper medicine that was expired, leading to a lot of medical and legal things that would make more sense to me if I heard from professionals like them.

Seeing the both of yous together is grand : ) You are both not only so incredibly knowledgeable in your respective subjects, but such talented presenters. You both do such a very good job of asking each other pertinent questions to prompt interesting information and assessments, and this is truly such a joy to watch! Learnt a lot! : )

    I sued once. Missed Diagnosis on my mom. The lawyer was fantastic at explaining what happened in layman’s terms. I miss my mom, but she got justice. From the jury being chosen to the end-my mom got justice. RIP I love you mom.

      What kind of justice though? Monetary or jail time or license revoke? The second is justice, the first is helpful to pay for services and whatnot but it would be hard to see it as justice. Malpractice insurance pays it out doesn't it?

      The only time I had surgery was in 2007 for appendicitis, the last thing I heard before going under was myself commenting on how the table felt like it wasn't wide enough for me.....at least, I assume I mentioned it out loud. A lot of factors contributed to making that whole 4th of july week a bit hazy.

      The last thing I remember before going under for a laparoscopic surgery for the first time was a doctor I'd never met before and who was not my surgeon sorting metal instruments that were in a big metal tray thing, so there was a loud clinking noise every two seconds. Literally the last thing I remember was asking who he was. I think my brain went all "and end scene" at the wrong time but it was really weird to wake up and have that be the last memory.
      The surgery went great though.

    I have only been hospitalized when giving birth. Two of the four times, I had C-sections. And oh ma god! The number of times I saw doctors and nurses was incredible! It seemed like I couldn't rest much because there was always someone coming in the room. Taking vitals, checking the incision, poking, prodding, asking two thousand questions. And I'm glad they did! My incision healed well, and the worst issue was some constipation. I wouldn't have been left alone long enough to get a infection, let alone have one so bad they needed to do surgery.

    This video was fascinating! You were talking about having regular follow ups after procedures, but that has not been my experience. That is really good to know! I had a skull reconstruction surgery for Chiari Malformation. I met my surgeon for maybe 5 minutes prior to the procedure. I never saw him again and never got a call from his office. I was told to follow up with my PCP so he could do pain management, but they weren't able to get me in till almost 2 weeks post op. It was not a great experience recovering from major surgery with no pain meds for the first two weeks.

    As a digital artist, I have to say, psychology of color is a thing and colors absolutely do matter, just in a subtler way. We associate different colors with different ideas and feelings, and they can even evoke feelings in us, just by seeing them. Edit: this is about the portion where the lawyer in the show was scrutinizing the color of outfit the defendant wore.
