Brain surgeon Charlie Teo's reputation will come under scrutiny on a second day of disciplinary hearings after allegations he operated without medical oversight.
The high-profile surgeon was restrained by the NSW Medical Council in August 2021 from operating without the approval of another doctor, after an investigation by the state's Health Care Complaints Commission.
A five-day hearing continues on Tuesday after one of the opening witnesses held back tears while recounting the deterioration of her mother's health, and eventually her death, after surgery by the Sydney neurosurgeon in 2019.
