Patna: A three-member committee that was constituted to probe the charges made against the senior orthopedic faculty by junior doctors associated with the Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH) has now submitted its report to the Principal of the institution.
Medical Dialogues had reported earlier that, the junior doctors of the premier healthcare institution had made allegations on the Head of the Orthopaedic Department that he used to pressurize Medicos for prescribing medicines of particular brands.
