Your Rights Against Doctors (4) A Doctor who removed kidney in name of removing appendix

It has happened somewhere in a small town. A client came to me about a property case. Side by side, he told me story of how his doctor removed one of his kidney in name of removing appendix.

He had gone to hospital to complain about pain in stomach. He was asked to get admitted. Operation for appendix was advised and done.

After about six months, when he consulted some other doctor, he informed him that earlier doctor has removed one of his kidney in name of removing appendix.

I asked him what action he had taken against the doctor. He said he did not complain against the doctor because he had family relationship with doctor!

How our small town people are gullible!
