Sad, seems the guy had a small cyst on his spleen and probably didn’t even need surgery.

According to medical records, the surgeon apparently did not realize his mistake at the time of the surgery and proceeded with labeling the removed liver specimen as a “spleen.” After the procedure, Shaknovsky told Beverly Bryan that the “spleen” was so diseased that it was four times bigger than usual and had “migrated” to the other side of Mr. Bryan’s body.

EDIT - > ah, you changed your entire post...

but to answer your original question of "DEI hire?"

Do White American males count as DEI hires?



Dr Thomas J. Shaknovsky is an American general surgeon who attended Loyola University for his undergraduate degree. He received his medical degree from Midwestern in Downers Grove, Illinois and completed general surgery residency at Hackensack University Medical Center in Hackensack, New Jersey.

During his sophomore year of college, Dr Shaknovsky joined he U.S Army. Several military training exercises on Florida’s Emerald Coast led to him getting fond of the region. He remains a Major in the U.S. Army.

Dr Shaknovsky is extensively trained in performing minimally invasive/robotic surgery, endoscopy, wound care and dialysis access.

After practicing general surgery for four years in Southeast Alabama, he decided to relocate to Florida in 2023. He joined Ascension Sacred Heart Emerald Coast Hospital as General Surgeon and also worked with North Walton Doctors Hospital.

Thomas Shaknovsky is married with three kids. He reportedly enjoys outdoor activities such as fishing and hiking. Dr Shaknovsky speaks fluent English and Russian.

I feel like there should be an award issued for this. Is there an award we can give?
