My dad was diagnosed with Small Cell Lung Cancer in Feb '09 . Prior to that he had visited Apollo hospitals in Dec'08 for a full body checkup as he was in great pain in his whole body and had lost a lot of weight and used to sweat a lot in the nights.
The doctors in Apollo told the lungs were clear (although he had cancer there). they could not even detect that in the X Ray. They attributed all this to this high BP and Prostate problem that he had. Despite visiting the hospital many times those doctors didnt feel the need to advise some advanced tests like CT or MRI .
We lost 2 crucial months due to that else his treatment could have started in Dec itself.
Small Cell Cancer is a very fast spreading cancer and by the time it was detected it had spread to Bones, Bone marrow and a little bit on the liver.
Although by the grace of God and Doctors at AIIMS and our Homeopathic doctor he has been able to come out of it. But if we would have depended on the doctors at Appolo any longet it would have been disasterous for us.
These folks just want to mint money. They see patients as an ATM . They do not have the soul and honesty which a doctor should have.
this hospitals negligence would have costed many ppl their lives. It should be barred
