OP services hit hard at Gandhi Hospital
About 25% of the out-patients who visited Gandhi Hospital on Friday returned disappointed as the services were not available. The protest by junior doctors against the National Medical Commission (NMC) Bill for the past three days reached a peak.
Secunderabad: About 25% of the out-patients who visited Gandhi Hospital on Friday returned disappointed as the services were not available. The protest by junior doctors against the National Medical Commission (NMC) Bill for the past three days reached a peak.
Except for emergency services, all surgeries too were put on hold. L Shanti, mother of a patient, said that they had been waiting for close to two hours but there was no one to attend to them.
"For the past two days, I have been visiting the hospital as my mother is admitted to the gastrological department. No doctors have come to check her. I personally went to the senior doctor's cabin but I did not find anyone. I am clueless as to what to do," said Ramesh, a patient's attender.
"My three-month baby is suffering from cold and fever, I am forced to return home," wailed Uma. "We came here from Medchal for my daughter's treatment as she has an infection in kidney and for the past two hours we have been waiting in the ambulance.
Nobody, even the ward boy, has come to us. After asking the security over here, I came to know that as the junior doctors are in the strike, there is no doctor available. So now we have no option but to return hom," said another Janaki Kumari.
