When a Trusted Doctor Used Trust to Mutilate: The Reeves Betrayal
-
Letto da:

Di:
A trusted specialist performed a clitoridectomy on a patient who had asked only for a small lesion to be removed, after telling her in the seconds before anaesthesia what he intended to do. How could a man with thirty-five complaints, a formal obstetrics ban and prior patient deaths be hired and allowed to operate in plain sight for years?
In this episode, we lay out the sequence of events, the institutional records, and the personal harm that followed, showing how warnings and restrictions appeared on paper yet were ignored - how did that happen, and who carried the cost?
Person: Graeme Stephen Reeves
Date: 2002 (Carolyn Dewaegeneire appointment)
Location: New South Wales South Coast
Event: Clitoridectomy performed without consent
Period: Complaints logged 1985-2000
- Reeves had 35 complaints logged between 1985 and 2000.
- He faced 17 criminal counts and was linked to 10 dead babies and 7 dead women whose cases were reopened.
- In August 1997 the Professional Standards Committee banned Reeves from practising obstetrics.
- A 2002 April reference check by Greater Southern Area Health Service recorded the obstetrics restriction but Reeves was hired anyway that month.
- Carolyn Dewaegeneire was told in the seconds before anaesthesia that a clitoridectomy would be performed and woke up having had that procedure without consent.
