I worked at one time for a neurosurgeon. The guy got sued left and right. Frankly, it wasn't his fault. What'd happen is, someone would come in with a malignant case of glioblastoma which has progressed, and they're given, more or less a death sentence of 6 months to a year, assuming they put a wafer in their brain or take chemo, maybe 2 years. They die and their loved ones sue.

They never win...they just sue. Honestly, I wish there was a way to have a more efficient system where the endless malicious lawsuits weren't such a burden.
