For nearly two decades, pilot William Hamman lied about also being a doctor, specifically a cardiologist. And he got away with it—co-authoring peer-reviewed journal articles, amassing grants, and becoming a popular speaker whose specialty was teaching teamwork skills to emergency room staff, based on lessons he'd learned in the aviation industry. What's interesting about this case is Hamman seemed to be good at what he did, and didn't necessarily need the fake medical credentials to do the largely management-centric work he was known for. The lies have, rightly, cost him his career … but they were lies that probably didn't need to be told to even get that career. It reminds me, in many ways, of the story of former Notre Dame football coach George O'Leary. Though, of course, O'Leary was able to bounce back and works as a football coach today.
Pilot duped medical industry into believing he was a cardiologist
