I once had to get stitches removed from my finger. I went to a clinic and the nurse who did it refused to give me even a topical anesthetic. She pulled two out to my excruciating pain before I had to leave. As I screamed in pain between stitches, she comforted me in a way that made it seem as though she enjoyed it. I went to another doctor who gave me anesthesia and I felt nothing as he removed the last few stitches. That experience haunted me in a way no other exchange with a medical professional ever has. Do you think there are varying degrees of predation and sadism in the medical community? How likely are professionals with relatively harmless (causing no long term physical harm) sadistic habits to go on to killing?

It was poorly done. I went to a clinic when I cut my finger and they stitched it too deep. Fingers have a lot of nerve endings in them and each time the nurse pulled it sent electric shocks up my arm.
