Confessions Of A Cardiologist One doctor’s account of the horrors witnessed in recent years.

“I’m writing this statement anonymously because, despite the fact I no longer work for an NHS hospital, I still do locum work. If I was to be identified, I’d be vilified by many colleagues and patients and I would risk being struck off.

I know of several doctors who’ve spoken out about what’s been happening over the last two and a half years and their lives haven’t been the same since, with them losing their jobs and having to change location and falling out with friends and family. All for telling the truth. I’m not afraid to whistleblow but I can’t be open about my identity until I fully retire.

Back in 2020, I noticed a huge increase in DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) orders being put on hospital patients’ files. I later found out that this was happening in care homes and other NHS facilities too. Prior to the pandemic, DNRs were only put in place if a person was very old and frail or terminally ill and it would always be done with the consent of the patient or, if the patient lacked capacity, with the consent of the next of kin or whoever had power of attorney.

But during the pandemic, blanket DNRs were put in place on pretty much everyone over the age of 60. They were put on younger people too - those with disabilities (mental and physical), on people with mental health issues and even on children with autism. I saw one on the file of a 30-year-old schizophrenic. I questioned this but was told by other consultants that this was the new protocol and that it had to be followed.

I saw young doctors bullying patients into agreeing to DNRs, telling them all kinds of horror stories and trying to force them to decide there and then. A lot of patients didn’t understand what was happening and probably just agreed to get the doctors off their backs.

I was horrified by what was - and still is - happening in NHS hospitals across the UK. There was no reason to put DNRs on all these people - and without their consent too. I’d never seen anything like it before. And it was happening right in front of my eyes.

I examined a lot of dead bodies in 2020 and noticed that a lot of them were younger than usual. There were more suicides than usual too - mostly in young people. The youngest one I examined that year was 18. It was soul-destroying.

Since the Coronavirus Bill was passed in March 2020, we have had so many of our human rights taken away. That includes medical rights. There’s no longer any body autonomy. Your body and your life is not your own. Once a person is admitted to hospital, they are the property of the hospital. Property of the state. They can stop you from leaving and basically imprison you if a consultant says it’s in your best interests to stay. A doctor can now override the wants and wishes of patient and their family. I’ve seen notes stating that the patient and family do not want a DNR and the notes are scored out with the words ‘overridden by consultant’ across them.

When I saw what was happening, I couldn’t go along with it so left the hospital for good as soon as I could. I wasn’t working as a doctor to allow patients to die unnecessarily. Every person should have a chance of life: a second chance even. I’ve seen many people resuscitated after heart attacks who’ve gone on to live another 10, 20 or 30 years. The main reason for these DNRs – and I hate to admit this – is to get rid of what Henry Kissinger once referred to as “useless feeders”, people who are seen to be a drain on the world’s resources, people who are costing the NHS and the government too much money in healthcare and pensions. In simple terms, it’s a cull of society’s most vulnerable people. In a single word, it’s eugenics. People used to laugh and think the whole idea of depopulation was the stuff of conspiracy theories, but it’s been happening on a huge scale over the last two and a half years and is still happening now.

Having a DNR in place also makes it easier when it comes to organ donation. Most people don’t know that the organ donation system was changed back in May 2020: it used to be an opt-in system but now it’s opt-out. This means we are all considered to be organ donors unless we specifically write to the NHS Organ Donor Register to say we don’t want to be donors.

When people are admitted to hospital after, say, a road traffic accident, and it looks like there’s no chance of recovery, doctors are keen to get the organs. Unless the victim has opted out, the organs are able to be removed and used for transplants. I saw a young man of 27 who’d been brought in after a suicide attempt. He was on life support at the time. The ITU doctors were around his bed like vultures, saying he wasn’t going to recover so they may as well remove his heart. As a consultant cardiologist, they called me in for my expert opinion. They were really rushing me, asking if the heart was fit for transplantation. I looked at this lovely young man in the bed and felt like crying. I checked his heart and told the doctors that his heart would not be suitable due to very poor left ventricular function. They looked disappointed but accepted my decision. As I left, I heard the ITU consultant and his crew discussing the patient’s other organs - the liver, kidneys, pancreas - and whether they could be harvested. It made me feel sick. I cried when I got home and couldn’t eat for days. I don’t know what became of him but I do know he had a DNR in place so if he stopped breathing as a result of his injuries, he wouldn’t be resuscitated. The combination of a DNR and the organ donor opt-out system is clearly open to abuse and is potentially lethal.

They are coming at the vulnerable - those who are considered not to contribute to society in any way - from all angles. This winter, the government are clearly planning to starve and freeze these poor people to death. They make out they’re helping by giving them winter fuel payments and the like, but that won’t cover the cost of food and heating over the cold months.

I’ve also witnessed hospital patients being given the wrong treatment during the Covid 19 pandemic, only to result in their untimely deaths. Many were put on ventilators, for example. It’s a known fact that less than 20% of people who are put on ventilators recover. And I saw patients being put on ventilators when they didn’t need to be and dying because of it, most from ventilator-induced pneumonia.

I’ve seen people turned down for treatment and surgery too. And not just during the pandemic. Several years ago, I examined a 70-year-old male with a very slow heartbeat (30bpm). He needed a pacemaker but the consultant said he was too old to have one fitted. The usual age for a person to get a pacemaker is 75 to 80, yet here was a doctor telling me this 70-year-old man was too old. He was an outpatient so I don’t know what happened to him but it’s unlikely he’d have lived much longer without the surgery. I’m mentioning this story because I don’t want to say these sorts of incidents - people being turned away for treatment - never happened before and that it’s only since 2020 that they’ve been happening, but it used to be rare before the Covid years, and now it’s not rare at all.

I’m not saying that the doctors or nurses are entirely to blame. Most think they’re doing the right thing by following these terrible protocols. They’ll say they’re “just following orders” (where have we heard that before?) even when they know in their hearts the orders are morally and medically wrong. This applies to DNRs too. We need to ask why they were being put on the young and the healthy. I believe the problem lies with the bureaucrats, the ones developing the protocols. Those people have blood on their hands.”
