Brain surgery. Wrong side. Total catastrophe.

This isn’t an episode of Grey’s Anatomy—it’s a chilling true story of a credentialing collapse that led to one of the most devastating medical errors imaginable.

In this jaw-dropping episode, Shannen and Nyleen dissect a real case where a neurosurgeon operated on the wrong side of a patient’s brain—leaving her permanently disabled and sparking outrage across the healthcare system.

🎙️ Inside this episode:

  • The shocking truth behind one of medicine’s most unforgivable “never events”
  • How credentialing failures and system breakdowns set the stage for disaster
  • Why hospitals with protocols still miss deadly red flags
  • What you can do to prevent history from repeating itself

⚠️ Wrong site. Wrong patient. Wrong procedure.
It’s happening more than you think—and we’re calling it out.

Because in healthcare, the line between right and wrong?
It's life or death.
