The following pages are directly linked to this page:

• The Consultant is King - Sources
• Moonlighting Consultants
• Contemptuous dismissal
  • Sources
• Harassment of patients
  • Sources
• Compulsory Euthanasia
  • Sources
  • David Glass Sources

Also see Treatment approval or not for examples of denial of treatment on spurious moral grounds supported by dubious clinical indicators, such as lower survival rates for patients who smoke or are obese.  Denial of treatment in these cases is more likely to be led by management or politicians seeking to cut costs.
