A surgeon who faked his own leg amputations for an amputation fetish has been jailed, admitting to fraud and possessing extreme pornography. His former patients, including one whose mother died after surgery, are haunted by the betrayal — especially since Hopper, also an amputee, seemed like a fellow sufferer. He allegedly used dry ice to self-inflict frostbite, and while the hospital claims no harm occurred, patients like David Parker say they suffered lasting damage. The case exposes a troubling gap between institutional trust and medical oversight, as Hopper was struck off the register — but the scars on patients’ trust remain deep.
