I am compulsively writing it after a series of similar incidents. Together with a good number of very honest and trustworthy doctors there are some manipulative ones are practising in the world. They are acting as commission agents to some LABS, Radiology centres and Pharmaceutical companies.
Almost all clinical laboratories are giving fixed commission to doctors for referring cases to them. As if it is essential they are keeping confidential reports and bills for it. An investigation with regarding the refering doctors in each such lab will reveal it clearly. Hundreds are paid as commission from small labs and thousands from big scanning centres. Get rid of these malpractices and such bad members of Medical community with joint effort.
All people are requested to be alert to get second and third opinion regarding
Illness
Prescribed lab tests and diagnostic centres
Medicines
Referred hospitals and connection with this doctor
Never hesitate to get alternate openion from another physician if suspect something or in case of complicated illnesses.
Refer authentic books or search internet for accuracy before a decision.
Insist for open discussion and clarification from doctor.
Most of the doctors throughout the world are using a method of differential diagnosis but some are not. At the first instance itself they conclude with the rarest and most grave disease.
When I was told by a doctor that our child got heart murmur and needs an urgent surgery in a particular hospital we went thru a very terrible pace and fortunately got a second opinion from a very efficient specialist and relieved with the result that there is no such symptoms in our child. What is there is just common with all children. with in a few weeks another friend asked us prayer support for the same problem. They were also told that their child got Heart murmur and needs urgent surgery in a particular hospital. When probed about the pediatrician we were shocked to hear that the same doctor made the wrong diagnosis again. They also got negative second opinion from another specialist. This is just an example of an iceberg.
If found malpractice proceed with legal action -IMA, police complaint and court.
