An AIIMS doctor was accused for refusing to treat a patient and misbehaving with his family. Against his plea, doctor said that there was no charge sheet or evidence against him. According to the complaint a person with his two sons was in the emergency department for treatment of his father. The person alleged that the doctor on duty refused to treat his father and called two other doctors and a security guard who slapped him and punched him. A FIR was registered wherein the security guard was charged but not the doctor.
The Delhi court has upheld this matter dismissing the plea of the doctor. Source: Times Of India What is your opinion on this case? What made the doctor refuse treatment? Will this impact the doctor-patient relationship?
