A magistrate court in Mumbai on Wednesday granted bail to a 44-year-old orthopaedic surgeon arrested last week over allegations of forging his MS Orthopaedics degree and misrepresenting his medical credentials. Judicial Magistrate SP Bhosale ordered the doctor's release upon furnishing a cash bail of Rs. 50,000.
Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that a fake orthopaedic surgeon has been arrested for allegedly duping patients by pretending to be a qualified and certified medical practitioner at several top private hospitals in the western suburbs without a valid medical degree. He is currently in judicial custody.
