A Hospital Helped a Beloved Doctor’s Practice Flourish Even as It Suspected He Was Hurting Patients

Hailed as a savior upon his arrival in Helena, Dr. Thomas C. Weiner became a favorite of patients and his hospital’s highest earner. As the myth surrounding the high-profile oncologist grew, so did the trail of patient harm and suspicious deaths.

    I’m probably stating the obvious, but is it not possible to immigrate and get healthcare in a decent country?

      Pretty much every country you’d think of will refuse to accept immigration applicants who aren’t in essentially perfect health.

        Yeah fair enough. I was kinda hoping the “very in-demand skills” part would help but apparently not.

      Not with zero money or assets, and without the ability to get a work visa when you’re unable to work, no.

      Pretty much nobody wants that kind of immigrant, no matter where you’re from. (I’ve looked.)

      e: ‘if I could get proper healthcare, I’d be able to work’ doesn’t fly.
