Dr. Gianluca Fanelli used hospital facilities to perform a life-saving surgery on his cat, Athena, who had fallen from a height. After taking her for a CAT scan, he performed an urgent pneumothoracic operation. Though the cat survived, local authorities have raised concerns about potential misuse of public resources, questioning whether this action diverted resources from human patients. Dr. Fanelli contended that he utilized hospital equipment only after hours, claiming his actions were motivated by a deep sense of responsibility as a veterinarian and a pet owner. He expressed willingness to reimburse the hospital if necessary.
In his defence, Fanelli said he used the hospital equipment after hours, when all the X-rays scheduled for the day had been completed and no other patients were booked in for urgent tests.
Being a doctor means carrying out a mission. The driving force is precisely the life that flows in the eyes of those who entrust themselves to your care.
