Upholding the order of the State Commission, the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) recently exonerated the treating doctors, who had been accused of removing the right kidney of the patient without informing the patient about it.

The NCDRC bench exonerated the doctors while relying on the report by the Medical Board of PGI Chandigarh, which had opined, "In view of findings on cystoscopy, retrograde ureteropyelography and CT Pyelography, the Committee concluded that the right kidney of Mr. Satish Kumar was not removed. However, it is shrunken and severely atrophic.”
