"...her evidence about medical negligence by respondents in performing surgery for removal of dark circle under the eyes, liposuction and abdominoplasty can be said to be hearsay," court observed in the order.
Maharashtra: A consumer court in Maharashtra''s Thane district has rejected a professional singer''s plea seeking a compensation of Rs 15 lakh from two doctors for alleged deficiency in service.
The complainant, Rahima Gulam Azad, told the Additional District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum at Vashi that she worked as an orchestra singer and suffered from dark circles under eyes and fat on abdomen and waist.
On the recommendation of dentist Bindiya Gupta, the complainant, a resident of Nerul in Navi Mumbai, approached cosmetic surgeon Vikas Sharma to get rid of the problems.
She said Sharma performed surgeries on her in 2014 to remove that fat and scars but they appeared after some time due to "medical negligence" on part of the surgeon.
