A 62 year old woman went to surgeon Bradford King in Fredericksburg, VA for a routine gallbladder removal operation. The surgeon cut the wrong duct, destroying her billiard system and emptying 4 liters ... of bile into her stomach. When the patient called to complain of pain after the surgery, the surgeon's nurse told her that her pain was "normal." The patient underwent multiple surgeries, had massive scarring and will need monitoring, medication and procedures for the rest of her life. The jury found for the surgeon and against his nurse.
