This is not a case of criticizing ot...@Anne Marie<br /><br />This is not a case of criticizing others because of their nationality. The doctors who happened to be Belgian were criticized because they abandoned their patients. What kind of doctor abandons their patients who are in critical condition and fend for themselves? Have they not taken the Hippocratic Oath? The doctors left on their own accord and were not ordered by the UN, it was very bad judgement that all of them left the field hospital that night.<br /><br />Dr. Gupta didn't have to do what he did that night and I don't think he was doing it for sensationalism. I think he did it because it was his duty as a DOCTOR!! Even when the Belgian doctors came back the next morning, one doctor told him that has never been so embarrassed to be a Belgian! A Belgian himself said this. In this instance, what the doctors did was despicable!<br /><br />I still admire Dr. Gupta. He's done a lot in Haiti extending his services as a doctor. He also performed brain surgery and a 12 year old girl whose brain was embedded with concrete. This was not televised and as the only neurosurgeon available in Haiti, other doctors seeked him out and asked him to do it!<br /><br />It is a beautiful act of humanity that people all over the world are working together to help. I commend them.<br /><br />What have you done to help?Flippin' Yankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04622875046958372575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140005953803793903.post-37663255207146626922010-01-20T21:52:22.282+00:002010-01-20T21:52:22.282+00:00So happy that Gupta was there!

How odd that he is always there to criticize everybody else and at the same time is able to perform brain surgery in Iraq, Haiti etc. with a full crew of reporters present etc. Can you imagine him being surgeon general? Only if he could make it on TV? It is NOT Ok to criticize other simple people who are trying to do good to further yourself. Knowing somebody on the Belgian Bfast team, Dr, Gupta, it is NOT OK to get some juicy stories while at the same time getting ready to perform surgery. I have always been a great fan of yours, but am extremely disappointed by your advancing yourself instead of getting down to the real facts? I am talking about simple Belgian citizens who are leaving their families to help other people in distress. I was a big fan of you and CNN, but have to agree with the Europeans...American sensation! GET REAL DR. GUPTA!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08030384218505965361noreply@blogger.com
