   The California State Medical Board has ruled that urologist Charles   
   Coonan Streit committed 'an extreme departure from the standard of   
   care' by relying on memory in his removal of a kidney from a federal   
   inmate.  The 59-year-old inmate ended up with his healthy kidney   
   excised and the cancer-affected organ still inside his body.  A   
   second surgery has been performed, and Streit has been placed on three   
   years' probation.   
      
     Charles Coonan Streit =   
     Contrast: healers' icon   
   or   
     As in 'heals'?  Not correct.   
      
     Non-correct-slash tirade   
      
   His approach to medicine:   
     "Oh, crone, cast entrails!"   
     Slash. Incorrect toe? "Darn."   
      
     Charles Coonan Streit ~ errs. Act's ethical no-no.   
      
      
     Dr Charles Coonan Streit ~ sent accidental horrors.   
      
     Dr Charles Coonan Streit =   
     Ah, snarl "side not correct".   
     So 'Incorrect Hands' alert!   
      
      
   'Wrong-side surgery' is often a result of hurry, encouraged by   
   staff shortages and a penny-pinching environment:   
     Wrong-side surgery =   
     Greed's worrying us.
