NEW DELHI: A man has alleged that doctors at Kota Medical College in Rajasthan mistakenly operated on his paralysed father instead of him, following an accident.
The patient, Manish, was brought to the hospital after sustaining injuries in an accident. Scheduled for surgery on Saturday, he called his paralysed father for support.
According to Manish, he was admitted and prepped for surgery while his father waited outside the operating theatre. However, what transpired next left him stunned.
“I met with an accident and got injured. Since there’s no one else to help, I called my father, who is paralysed, to be with me,” Manish said. “My surgery was scheduled for Saturday, so I asked him to sit and wait outside the operation theatre.
"I was inside the OT—I don’t know what happened, but now my father has 5–6 stitches on him,” he added.
The patient further said that he does not remember the name of the doctor who performed the operation.
"I don't remember the name of the doctor who operated on me. I am also lying around in this condition. What can I do?" he said helplessly.
Meanwhile, Kota Medical College Hospital principal Dr Sangeeta Saxena directed the superintendent to form a committee on the incident.
"I have asked the superintendent to form a committee and submit a report within 2-3 days. They have formed a three-member committee... They will inquire and inform what happened," Saxena said.
