Aligarh: Taking action against a complaint of medical negligence, Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak has ordered a probe against doctors at Aligarh’s CHC and Dufferin Hospital. This came after a complaint alleged that the doctors transferred a pregnant woman without providing proper care ..
Last week, the doctors allegedly transferred a pregnant woman to a facility without primary care. Pathak instructed CMO Dr Manoj Agarwal to find out the doctors connected to the incident and initiate a proper investigation against them. He also instructed that the salary of the doctors' should be withheld if found guilty. The family of the patient reached Pathak via social media and informed him about the incident.
The patient was brought to the Aligarh Nehru Children Park CHC. The patient's family had to make numerous requests before the gate was eventually unlocked. Due to the patient's serious condition, doctors referred her to Dufferin Hospital, where she was then sent to another hospital. She eventually gave birth to a child in a private hospital. However, the patient's party claimed that the doctors did not provide any primary care to the woman before transferring her, reports TOI.
