Indian doctors did their best: Akram

[pagans]

Lahore: Cricket legend Wasim Akram has said doctors in India tried their best to save the life of his wife Huma. He accused their counterparts in Pakistan of only being interested in making money, days after a Parliamentary panel directed authorities to cancel licences of 22 physicians in Lahore who treated her.

“The doctors of hospitals in Lahore took no pain for treating” Huma, who died in Chennai in October, “as they failed to diagnose her problems.” “They were more interested in making money,” Mr. Akram told PTI. “After failing to cure Huma, they asked me to pay $150,000 to arrange an air ambulance to Singapore for her treatment.”

Mr. Akram also refuted claims by doctors in Lahore that Huma’s condition had been improving before the unsuccessful move was made to shift her to Singapore.

After 42-year-old Huma’s condition worsened while she was being flown to Singapore in October, the flight was diverted to Chennai.

Huma, a psychologist, was admitted to a private hospital in Chennai, where she died after a week.

Mr. Akram said the doctors in India did their best to save his wife and Apollo Hospital in Chennai refused to charge even a penny for her treatment. — PTI

[Awesome]

I feel sorry for Wasim... He has been a torn and shattered man since the incident. Doctor's Hospital needs to pay for all their goofups.

My Unlce passed away as well. They did a successful heart bypass (for which they squeezed us for about 300,000+ rupees, back when the rupee value was quite better), but then due to mismanagement of their aftercare staff he passed away after showing some improvement.

Sounds like a recurring story with Doctor's hospital.

How could the doctors be so negligent with someone as important as Wasim Akram's wife? I thought Cricket was big in Pakistan.

I feel really sorry for him, can't even imagine how he might have felt when her condition deteriorated mid-air. Man it's just sad.

Indeed it is awful for what happened to Wasim.

Mr X, I don't think that it is appropriate to treat all in a same way. Just because of the acts of some you can't blame a whole professional community.

KIT Out.
