“Deleterious” management
The professor, responsible for the bariatric surgery activity (obesity surgery) of Assistance publique – Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP) in Seine-Saint-Denis, committed suicide on Sunday February 3, 2019 by defenestrating from his hospital office.
He had put on his working medical coat as well as his operating room shoes before killing himself, according to the investigation which revealed that he had asked to leave his service after “deleterious” management following the merger of different services. The professor also had a tumor and had to undergo a chemotherapy session.
