nypamedic43 Posted September 5, 2011 Author Share Posted September 5, 2011 Doogie Howser syndrome I'm guessing. How in the world did he get so far in without someone questioning who he was and where he came from? I feel bad for the patients that he took advantage of.

tniuqs Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 (edited) What a great start ... NOT ! I wonder how @ 17 y/o the criminal fraud charges will be dealt with .. our PC laws here for Juvies suck, he would most likely get a slap on the wrist never be put in the crowbar hotel AND because he is a minor, media would not be allowed to name him in the papers .. which IMHO is total bull shit.

ERDoc Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I can't condone what he did but I give him props. He was able to pull it off and no one suspected anything. There are lots of new providers, who have been trained/educated that freak the first time they have to do CPR. This kid was all over it. He'll probably be barred from ever practicing medicine but you've got to wonder if he would have made an awesome provider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
