Imagine doing over a decade of schooling and training, spending thousands of dollars to become a platic surgeon, making really, really good money and generally be respected by most people.
Imagine that not being enough and you throw it all away in an attempt at being a fucking tiktok star.
Well, she is blonde
The board said Grawe, who originally had her license suspended in November, neglected her patients as she livestreamed parts of their procedures, spoke into a camera and answered viewer questions — all while the surgeries were taking place.
The unnamed patient suffered severe damage to and bacterial infections in her abdomen, as well as loss of brain function from the amount of toxins in her blood, according to the notice.
Holy shit. I read the headline and thought it was bad but reading this… wow
oof. I was trying to give as much benefit of the doubt before going in… like, maybe it was a consenting patient, anonymized, and it would be really cool for educational purposes. I’d love to see a livestreamed surgery where the surgeon explains to the audience exactly what’s going on and such.
But this… damn. Straight up negligence
Same thing happened on Brazil a couple years ago. I saw the censored videos published by newspapers and they were pretty disturbing, the surgeon was not doing tiktoks that could be classified as educational or informatives, but doing literal tiktok dances while the patient was opened up in front of the camera.
now I have this mental image of someone in surgical gear default dancing in the middle of a heart transplant.

Sounds like she lost her license for reasons having to do with patient care in addition to live-streaming her surgical procedures.
She also did it without her patients’ consent, which is a big no no.
You can film patients, they just have to agree. That is how you get professional popping videos.
That very last sentence made me spit out my coffee. Take an upvote.
