Anaesthetists demand college reinstates doctor asked to resign over alleged ‘slurs’ of specialty
Doctors have backed Associate Professor Joanna Sutherland, saying her comments were 'measured'.
A group of anaesthetists are demanding their college back down over its “dismissal” of a leading fellow for allegedly slurring the specialty over fraudulent billing practices.
Anaesthetist Associate Professor Joanna Sutherland was asked to quit her post as chair of the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists’ (ANZCA) quality and safety committee a day after she was quoted in a media story about claims of unethical billing by dozens of anaesthetists.
