A British breast cancer surgeon is accused of “playing God” with his patients!

Ian Paterson of Spire Healthcare Hospitals in England was convicted of performing unnecessary operations — and could end up behind bars for life!

Over 250 victims have already received millions in compensation, but the total number of claims could run into the thousands!

Paterson’s behavior had been a smoking gun for years among hospital staff, even warning private health care providers about him.

He allegedly lied to his victims by either exaggerating or telling them untruths about their actual diagnoses,  and even shredded their medical notes!

He would then claim payments for more expensive procedures by putting incorrect codes on his patients’ insurance forms to help fund his luxurious lifestyle!

Prosecutors believe his “God complex” enabled him to revel in the misery he inflicted on his unsuspecting victims, while complaints against him were ignored by his bosses over a period of several years.

One female victim testified in court how she had been left looking like she had been involved in a “car crash” after an “entirely unnecessary” mastectomy was performed on her by Paterson.

Another was told “pre-cancerous” cells had been found in her breasts which would need to be removed.

Even a former male patient of Patterson’s came forward after agreeing to undergo a double mastectomy, believing it would save his life.

The phony physician also has a legal battle on his hands with the country’s Medical Defense Union, who withdrew his malpractice insurance — claiming his actions did not fall within the guidelines for their coverage.

“What Mr Paterson did in our hospitals and in other hospitals absolutely should not have happened and justice has been done,”  read a statement from the Medical Defense Union.
