I read this article about Dr Jayant Patel disappearing from Australia and being the cause of death of some 87 patients (still being investigated) truly shocked me! What is going on?

I have always thought that Indian doctors are among the best in the world! Especially the ones that have practised in the US!! And here we have the case of a doctor, graduating from MP Shah College of Medicine, Gujarat in 1973, coming to the US and getting certified as a surgeon, then getting reprimanded, escaping to Australia, practising there and being the cause of so many more deaths.

Is the craze for money so great that human lives mean nothing? Does the Hippocratic oath stand for nothing?
