Opinion;Disgraced,Convicted Doctor- Joseph Tiong

Dr. Joseph Tiong, Certified Cosmetic Surgeon, Maroubra Sydney
Disgraced; Dr Tiong

Despite his current professionally disgraced condition, at one of his own websites, the following is being stated in relation to how great Dr Tiong really is-

"What separates our certified and experienced cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Joseph Tiong, from any other cosmetic surgeon is his ability to enhance natural beauty and subtly improve appearance. His combination of surgical artistry, advanced technology and sensitivity to a patient’s individual needs has established new standards of excellence in cosmetic surgery in Sydney."

The clear implication of this, and other similar assertions, on his websites, is that, he, Dr Tiong, is an absolute supremo and a total world-beater in the field of cosmetic surgery! No other cosmetic surgeon is quite as marvelous as him!

If this unverifiable slush makes you cringe, and feel a little bit sick, spare a thought for the likely feelings of the woman he has disfigured with the botched breast lift surgery, that he performed on her helpless, anaesthetised body, in the absence of her properly informed consent!

I wonder what she thinks of these golden claims about his 'surgical artistry' and his 'sensitivity to individual needs'!

It's surely got to hurt in her position, and I for one, certainly couldn't find any expressions of apology or regret concerning the tragic outcome he's caused for this person, amidst all the rather unrestrained puffery, at Joey Tiong's websites.

So it seems to me, that Dr Tiong's Medical Tribunal ordered re-training in medical ethics, really can't come soon enough!

It's not as if Dr Tiong is claiming that he's suffered a 'bum wrap' regarding the HCCC's prosecution, and in which he has been found to have been guilty of serious misconduct in relation to this patient- in fact- he actually made various admissions, illustrating the same- so in these circumstances, I have to say, why doesn't this man quit already, with the unseemly self aggrandisements, and demonstrate a little bit of decent public remorse on his websites, and maybe go and do some charity work or something, while he takes a really good look at himself.

Despite his conditional registration, Dr Tiong is still listed as a member of the Australasian College of Cosmetic Surgery (ACCS).
