Doctor accused of medical negligence in Qatar
A female gynaecologist practicing in Qatar has been accused of medical negligence and causing death of an unborn baby.
While the case is being reviewed currently by a Doha criminal court, the local Arabic daily Arrayah reported yesterday that the gynaecologist has been accused of medical error and carelessness.
It was found that the victim who was a pregnant woman in labour, upon arrival at the hospital, had informed the gynaecologist that she had previously given birth through a caesarian section (C-section). Thus it was impossible to deliver this baby in the normal way.
However, the gynaecologist had told the victim to wait for a normal delivery, in spite of the worsening conditions of the victim.
The victim’s repeated requests for a C-section went unheeded. Subsequently, the unborn child died before birth.
Thoughts? Comment below.
Doctors in womens hospital are very good,experienced and supportive and staff/ nurse as well. They keep track of every moment.
Normal delivery after C section is possible, my first kid born in my home country with C section and my second kid in Qatar with normal delivery. Even we have informed the doctors about the same but they have clearly told us we will try for normal delivery and in case of any complications they will go for C section and Alhumdulillah they have done normal delivery, today both my wife and son is healthy.
This made me very sad.
Was it from private clinic? y they don't disclose details of doctor and hospital
Yes it is possible a normal delivery, after c- section, but it is doctor who must know after carefully examining the patient s situation, it's her job. is it suitable to wait for normal delivery?? even after repeated requests from patient why she didn't take any action, had she waiting for miracle to happen?? We trust doctor after God, so we cannot expect such thing at least from doctor, she is doctor' highest position in society.
If she is inexperienced, she would have consulted her fellow doctors in such situation.
So it's a lesson for all doctors
But when patient was requesting, doctors should have done it,
Major loss, all dreams shattered
i guess the normal delivery is not impossible after a previous C section.. thats why the doctor waited for it.
Thats sad. Their job is tough a single error will cause huge demage. Between any detail of doctor or hospital ?
Why do they force them for a normal delivery. Someone I know faced the same and the child was stuck without oxygen about a minute.
How tragic... Let us hope that all the facts are layed out and justice gets served.
May the little one rest in peace
This is murder!
