It takes all kinds of lowlifes to become a slug, but a surgeon, who is thought of as a trustworthy doctor, who sells drugs, is one of the lowest forms of life. This doctor has a list of cudos a mile long. Whatever possesses a professional doctor to sell dope is a mystery in itself.

A UCSF surgeon who worked at the university-affiliated Veterans Affairs Medical Center in San Francisco was arrested and jailed on suspicion of 99 felony crimes in connection with prescribing opioid narcotics, according to university officials and jail records.
