I guess he didn't like to deliver bad news.

Whoever sent that "robot" deserves to get his license pulled. That's outrageous. In my wildest imaginings, I couldn't picture my husband ever doing something like that. Not that he ever lost many patients -- he was gifted.
Nobody likes that particular aspect of medicine. Particularly, if the patient was young (i.e. teenaged motorcycle rider sans helmet being t-boned). Those are very difficult deaths and take an emotional toll on anyone who has to be the one to tell the family. But eventually, a doctor must realize he/she is just a doctor and not God. Some patients are beyond the help of medical knowledge.
Nevertheless, the human aspect of patient care should never be sacrificed. This story is completely appalling. My guess is this doc will eventually find himself sued by somebody (if he hasn't already been) simply because he doesn't care and it shows.
