Dr Chris Stillman said learning about his colleague's death in a toxic culture almost made him leave.
Prof Mike Bewick says he heard "some disturbing stories" from people about the Birmingham hospitals.
The investigation revealed "extensive complaints" had been made by staff about the organisation's conduct and that "many were concerned about the 'toxic atmosphere and bullying at all levels of management'".
An independent review of the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Trust (UHB) has found the number of patient deaths at the trust is higher than would be expected.
The review comes after a BBC investigation into claims of a climate of fear at Birmingham hospitals.
