- A deleted Reddit post alleged that a Florida surgeon falsely claimed a patient’s intestine was perforated, performed emergency surgery without informed consent, and that post-operative imaging showed no perforation—raising questions about medical battery and fraud.

- Channel participants debated the plausibility of the claim, noting that the author’s online rants undermined credibility, yet prior one-star reviews for the same surgeon described a pattern of pushing unnecessary surgeries, suggesting possible victim selection of “unhinged” patients.

- Discussion framed the incident as a potential criminal matter (medical battery/fraud) rather than mere malpractice, with suggestions that a class-action suit or regulatory complaint could be more effective than social-media threats.

- The surgeon’s name was redacted from public posts, but participants considered searching IRC logs to identify the physician and corroborate patterns of misconduct.

- A brief side query asked whether AlphaFold is used primarily to accelerate medicinal chemistry or has other real-world applications beyond drug discovery.
