A trauma surgeon on call at a Las Vegas hospital relives the experience of treating an overwhelming number of victims pouring in after a lone shooter killed at least 59 and wounded over 500 on the night of Sunday, Oct. 1.
It was about 10 p.m. when the University Medical Center, some 5 miles from the shooting, received information that there was “a mass casualty situation on the Vegas strip,” said Dr. Syed Saquib, at the time the only trauma surgeon on call, according to ABC News.
