Surgeon who branded patients’ livers banned for life
UK transplant surgeon, Dr Simon Bramhall, ‘had undermined' public trust in the medical profession, concluded a medical tribunal
A UK transplant surgeon who burned his initials onto the livers of two patients to “relieve tension” during surgery has been banned for life.
Back in 2013, Dr Simon Bramhall had used an argon beam coagulator to write ‘SB’ onto the organs during transplant operations at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham.
