Dunno if anyone has followed the Charlie Teo story, whilst he does come across as an arrogant prick, I shudder to think how many lives he has saved. It seems to me now that for a couple cases whereby the outcomes weren't great, he has been taken to the cleaners by the establishment. Now I don't know the exact details of the two cases but I'll tell you one thing. Touch wood however if I am ever struck down with one of the terminal illnesses of the type he specialises in, he'd be my go to man to take the risks on me that no one else will to give me a shot a more time on this Earth. The way I see it, if you're calling on him for his services, the outlook is pretty bleak anyway, what more damage can he possibly do? Yes his fees are said to be outrageous by some but I find the treatment of people like him pretty ordinary.

I'm not too fussed about Charlie Teo.

Mrs DJC's neurosurgeon is a ripper; both as a person and in practising his craft.  I reckon that if he couldn't sort out your brainbox, no-one could.

It is a very team-oriented field.  Mrs DJC's surgical treatment was mapped out by the neurosurgeon, her neurologist and a radiologist.  The surgery was performed by the neurosurgeon, an assistant, a general surgeon, with the mandatory anaesthetist of course.
