I'm actually not arguing semantics on whether she had issues or not, because she clearly did. IMO, she had issues and did some stupid things but those had no bearing on her skills as a doctor. Nor would they have had any bearing on her willingness to help out victims at Ground Zero.I also work in healthcare and have seen many, many nurses and doctors undergo substance abuse treatment. You get a much shorter leash to deal with these issue when you are still a resident.
I think we are arguing semantics. In a residency, a “bad doctor” can easily be defined as showing up late, documenting poorly or not at all and accusing a co-worker, senior, well-respected doctor with an impeccable record, of sexual harassment so loudly and vehemently that she is arrested for filing a false police report. All of these are documented in court records.
She was complicated. She was likely brilliant but also struggling and difficult.
I guess in my head, like Det. Stark, if it was her in the lobby video, she likely ran to help and perished.
