Agra: Doctor caught on tape giving insensitive orders, Probe Ordered
Advertisement
Agra: Controversy seems to have taken over the SN Medical College, after an audio tape containing a purported conversation between a senior and junior doctor went viral.
Allegedly, in the audio tape, the senior doctor was purportedly advising the junior to admit the patient, even if he "dies" later and to make the attendant run for blood by asking for 10 units of blood.
The incident, which was first reported by TOI, points out to a case of a 18 year old Brijesh Singh, a TB patient suffering from bleeding stomach ulcers, whom the family claimed was first being denied admission at the medicine ward of the hospital during the late hours. The family finding the telephone number of a senior surgeon, called him up asking for his intervention. They made him speak to the junior at the hospital, following which the patient was admitted at the hospital. Unfortunately, the patient died after a few hours.
