The News4JAX I-TEAM has obtained an audio recording cited by plaintiffs in recently filed court documents where a former Ascension St. Vincent’s orthopedic surgeon can be heard slurring his speech during an office visit.
A deposition video also obtained by News4JAX shows Dr. David Heekin appearing disoriented, slurring his words and having outbursts just months after his last surgeries.
The daughter of a patient provided a statement cited by the plaintiffs in a recent filing, saying Dr. Heekin did a knee replacement on her mom in 2018 and she was brought back to the emergency room a month later when her wound opened up. The plaintiffs allege independent orthopedic doctors in the area saw so many inexplicably devastated patients of Dr. Heekin’s that one of them texted St. Vincent’s CEO Tom VanOsdol in January of 2020.
