/// No, he looks a kind man. ///
Are you basing that assumption on what this poor man has had to endure and the attitude he has taken, because surely you cannot say he looks a kind man from his general appearance?
Would you say that if the picture of him was one of him being led into a police van after being found guilty of a terrorist attack?

At the risk of being slated again , yes I would be very concerned. He appears to consider
life very lightly.
I would add that my sister has just come out of intensive care after having a double heart bypass. She had to have this done 100 miles away from home because surgeons nearer home refused to operate.
Squad, does this happen often and why is this when it is national health.

\\\\No because I've worked with some brilliant people who elevated scruffy to whole new levels.\\\
Not in surgical specialties I hope

\\\\\I'd be a bit worried about being part of 'gods plan'.\\\
Yes, that might be a concern for me too ;-)
Just a thought of mine.........how would people react......if one is going to be operated on then confidence is an important factor and appearance is a part of gaining one's confidence and reassurance.......for some people that is.
In my experience, one, given the choice, would rather have a medic of one's own race or indeed country of origin.
Clearly from the answers, I am in the minority.

No, not at all. If I am referred to any consultant, I look them up on the internet to see their track record. What they look like is of no concern to me, only that they know what they are doing. Many doctors from the Asian subcontinent are talented and skilled. What they wear out of work is not my business.
Leahbee, it's not uncommon for patients to have to travel to centres of excellence these days - it's more cost effective for the NHS to centralise speciality areas, than keep open small expensive units where consultants have to dash from one to the other. Where possible, the patient has choice about where they go.
My OH had to go for a scan some years back - there was a many-week wait at our local unit, the GP arranged for him to go to Belgium for it. It was brilliant.

His race is irrelevant, although his clear belief that death might be God's plan would unnerve me. I only know that from the article though and wouldn't think that if i met him as part of treatment. As i said, it's not the clothes, but the beard that bothers me (for an operating theatre). I'm not sure how he sterilises that!
