Lasik eye surgeon charged with cheating healthcare provider

SINGAPORE: An eye surgeon was charged on Friday with cheating a healthcare provider of more than S$474,000.

 

Fifty-one-year-old Marc Tay Tze-Hsin allegedly cheated integrated healthcare provider, Pacific Healthcare Specialist Services (PBSS), on 11 occasions between December 2005 and December 2006.

 

He is said to have dishonestly concealed the fact that he had been paid between S$2,520 and S$83,000 for each surgery he performed at The Lasik Surgery Clinic on behalf of PBSS knowing the amount belonged to PBSS.

 

He will be back in court again on January 6 next year.

 

It boils down to the fact that even doctors are human. and which human doesn't have needs, wants and desires. if they dun have, they are not human.

 

Saving lives, yes, otherwise why would they want to become doctors? but basic human characteristics do not change.

The belief that one become a doctor to save people is BS nowadays. It's all about money isn't it?

 

Anyway, this doctor was very popular for LASIK when he's in LSC.

some ppl choose to be a doctor because of the prospect and status, $$. not because their first priority is to save live.

similarly, ppl choose to be a teacher mainly because they want $$, stable income, etc. not because they want to educate next generation.

ppl treat this like a high paid job. please be realistic.

Doctors are humans too.

Malpractice, corruptions, dishonesty, etc happen in most professions or jobs.... only a few exceptions: maybe roadsweeper, tablewiper, toilet clearner etc.

 

These so-called 'lower ranks' are actually 'cleaner'?? wrong?

Dishonesty - in Cleaner = patrons leaving the table and he wipe table saw 50cts on table, take and put in pocket.

Dishonesty - to a Professional lawyer = client give cheque of $10mil, take cash it and absconded.

 

So which is the lesser of the 2 evils ?

If it was so easy to differentiate, then no need for rules for certain 'kinds' of people. That lady doc also in trouble with her charges for treating the Brunei elite rite?
