CHANDIGARH: Eight months after a 74-year-old woman's death, police have registered an FIR against two doctors of Landmark Hospital, Sector 33, for medical negligence. The case has been filed against Dr Harsimran Singh and Dr Parminder Singh under Section 304 A (causing death by negligence) of the Indian Penal Code.
As per the victim Amarjit Kaur's son, Sukhwinder Pal Sodhi, the septuagenarian had been admitted to Landmark Hospital on March 16, after suffering a femur (leg bone) fracture. He had requested the hospital to use the best available implant, one that was compatible with MRI scans. The surgery was performed by Dr Harsimran, who assured the family that the implant met these standards. However, the patient was discharged the very next day, on March 18, without adequate post-operative care or monitoring.
