Dr. Aria Sabit, the Birmingham neurosurgeon who plead guilty to performing unnecessary spinal surgeries on patients to the tune of $11 million; was in court today with his attorney asking for a plea agreement that Judge Borman denied.
Victim impact statements have not been fully assembled, though more than a dozen victims came to court today.
Brian McKeen, managing partner of McKeen & Associates in Detroit, which represents two of Sabit’s victims, releases this statement regarding today’s proceedings:
“I applaud Judge Borman’s decision to hold off on accepting any plea agreement until more facts are known especially with respect to how Dr Sabit’s misconduct has adversely effected his many victims.
“Regardless of the eventual outcome of the criminal case I intend to continue on my quest to hold Dr Sabit — and the hospitals that allowed these travesties to occur — fully accountable. “
