The 15-year-old son of two doctors successfully performed a filmed Caesarean section birth under his parents' watch in southern India in an apparent attempt to set a record as the youngest surgeon, officials said Thursday.

Instead, the boy's father could be stripped of his licenses and may face criminal charges.

Good, I hope his dad does get carged with something.
I don't care how smart you think your 15 year old son is, or how good of a doctor you are, letting this kind of thing happen is ######ed.

How old was Doogie Howser?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doogie_Howser,_M.D.

A brilliant teenaged doctor who was also faced with the problems of being a normal teenager, despite having graduated from Princeton University at age 10

At least Doogie Howser graduated from a University unlike this 15 year old kid who may have received training, but is not licensed to operate on anything or anybody. Though I highly doubt anyone REAL could get a doctorate by 10 years old

Just to clarify, Doogie became a doctor at age 14. He was 10 when he graduated- according to Wikipedia

Just to clarify, that was a TV show....

I hope that guy's malpractice insurance is paid up. Do you figure he had to take the hypocratic oath first?

The lady who got operated on whose baby was irresponsibly put in jeopardy is not going to be a happy mama....

I'm sure the mother knew the kid was doing the surgery, and in his defense, he's probably better then the HMO's
