The priority is to secure all evidentiary materials identified by the doctor to ensure a comprehensive investigation into the facility&#8217;s operations.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors will re-examine all previous cases involving patient deaths at the Southern Hospital that were previously submitted to the authorities. \u017burek emphasized that the matter is too serious to be ignored or handled superficially.<\/p>\n<h4>Questioning the Whistleblower&#8217;s Motives<\/h4>\n<p>While acknowledging the gravity of the allegations, \u017burek noted that Dr. J\u0119drzejewski is currently in a professional dispute with the hospital. The prosecutor questioned why these serious concerns were not raised earlier, yet maintained that the information provided must be thoroughly vetted.<\/p>\n<p>The Prosecutor General assured that the aim of the questioning is not to intimidate the doctor but to gather exhaustive information. The public must be kept informed as the investigation proceeds to get to the bottom of the allegations.<\/p>\n<h4>Allegations of Systematic Negligence<\/h4>\n<p>Dr. J\u0119drzejewski, the former head of surgery at the Southern Hospital, alleged that malpractice at the facility extended far beyond VIP privileges. He claimed that flawed procedures at the emergency department led to preventable complications and patient deaths.<\/p>\n<p>The former department head also described a culture of silence, alleging that medical staff were sometimes required to perform examinations on deceased patients to create documentation. He asserted that the entire hospital was aware of these practices.<\/p>\n<h4>Potential Questioning of the Mayor<\/h4>\n<p>When asked about the possibility of questioning Warsaw Mayor Rafa\u0142 Trzaskowski, the Prosecutor General stated that the investigating prosecutor must maintain full autonomy. However, he indicated that if it is confirmed the Mayor received reports of these irregularities, his testimony will be a necessary component of the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>Trzaskowski responded on social media, announcing that he will formally request the Prosecutor General to urgently investigate the claims made by Dr. J\u0119drzejewski. The Mayor has maintained that he had no prior knowledge of these specific events at the hospital.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Waldemar \u017burek, the Prosecutor General, has confirmed that Dr. Emil J\u0119drzejewski will be questioned regarding his allegations of medical malpractice and patient deaths at Warsaw\u2019s Southern Hospital.
