| – charges $300,Cheap Jerseys,000 for surgeryAny doctor attached to the public health sector who refuses to perform an operation possible at a public health facility but is willing to undertake it at a private facility at a cost must be censored or even fired.This comment was made by Minister of Health, Dr Leslie Ramsammy,China Jerseys Cheap, yesterday, who said that his Ministry is investigating one such allegation.According to the Minister,Wholesale Jerseys, while he is not aware of the details of the allegation,Cheap World Cup Jerseys 2018, the health sector does not and will not condone such practices.A distraught gentleman related that although it is his understanding that health care is available free of cost through the public health sector, it is not always an easy task to access available services, even when these are most needed.The man told a horrifying tale of how a female relative had to endure weeks of pain and suffering before qualifying for surgery at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC).And the prolonged wait was permitted although a diagnosis was made by a doctor within the public health sector. He highlighted the crucial need for surgery.Relating his version of an unfortunate scenario, the man who requested anonymity for fear of victimisation, said that it was just about three weeks ago that his relative developed a terrible stomach pain. Following an examination by a doctor at the Diamond Diagnostic Centre,China Jerseys Cheap, it was revealed that the relative had a gallstone the size of an awarra. And there was no small amount of pain associated with the medical dilemma.The doctor attached to the Diamond facility advised that an operation to remove the obstacle could not have been carried out there but would rather have to be undertaken at the GPHC. The relative was, as a result,Brett Favre Falcons Jersey, rushed in an ambulance to the GPHC after being administered saline and an injection. However, at the GPHC a “royal runaround commenced,” the man lamented.It was revealed that a doctor at the GPHC advised that the operation was not immediately necessary thus the relative was sent home.“There are no words to describe the kind of pain she was facing….It was just impossible and it was like these people just didn’t care…How could you see somebody in such pain and send them home.”No effort was made on the part of the woman’s relative to solicit medical attention, a move which even saw her family attempting to offer a $50,Bayern Munich Jerseys,000 inducement to a health care worker in an attempt to get her name higher on the surgery list.That move was not successful as no health worker sought to take that bait, the individual related. “We were willing to do anything. It wasn’t about trying to set them up…but it was that we couldn’t bear to see her in this terrible state, knowing that health care is right there and available free of cost.”The family, however, soon learnt that the same operation was available at a private hospital in the city at a cost of $300,000. But it was surprising when the family discovered that the same doctor who had refused to operate on the woman initially at the GPHC was willing to undertake the same operation at the private hospital for the astronomical cost.It is believed that continued perseverance on the part of the family was instrumental in seeing the surgery being undertaken last week Thursday at the public hospital free of cost. |
