I will nvr step in to that hospital again!

Yes, i really meant my statement.
Two bad experience = "I WILL NOT LET HISTORY HAPPENS ON ME"

I know there are a few post that i might have missed out and/or promised to post but i am in a midst of frustration now and feel i jus have to pen them down before i forget everything.

The second case was jus recently where my one of my sis worker's hand was badly cut at work. He was rushed to XXX immediately as it was the nearest hospital around. on admission, he was put on hold as his case was "not critical". That was tues, only until this morning when my sis confronted the doc, then the doc operates on him. But all was too late...

I couldn't rephrase all that was said in the meeting, but i understand from her is the doc was very unprofessional. First, she asked about why the operations is still not carried out. The doc replied that the patient didn't "confirm" the method of surgery. But my sis knows that the patient mentioned that the doc told him the operation tables was full. Upon pressing him, his answer... "Oh, that was one of the reason too..." Next she ask about the options to the surgery. The doc told her there is a lot to say and "hoped" he got time to tell her all... (WTF!) Hence my sis drove down to meet face to face with him for him to explain... Then before he starts, "Er... i wish i have enough time to tell u more, coz actually i am suppose to be on leave one, if not for this case... some more in the morning i was at XXX and have to rush down to do this op..." (Before we tried to do anything he already say he very pitiful liao). After which he start to explain the cost to the operations. Which my sis is not interested at that moment! She is more concern about the options available and want is to be done! At this point of time, the doc brought her to another room, supposedly "colder" and told her if she knows that she have 25k to spent from the workmencomp.... WTF?!? My sis was furious! All she wants to know is how the operation is going to be carried out and all the doc can say is $$$... He also asked if the worker is a good worker or not... @#$%&*( What the hell does it got to do with him???

The doc seeing that something is wrong, starts to explain the options... So there was three options. One is supposedly the most easiest option. But the "portion to be cut" was alot, according to the doc, hence its was not advised by him. The second one, was more "safe", but involves at least 3 ops one after another. (Cut here, stick there, then after it heals, separate, then after heal again, separate again...) So u see, involves three cuts. The last option is called "micro surgery", as the name applies, it means its gonna be tough. He says it cost much more and there is a 10% failure. Given the solutions, my sis could see that the doc is in favor of the second op. But it involves almost three operations and its going to be pretty painful for the patient. Hence she ask about the chances of doing the first option, she ask to show the photos taken and access the situation with the doc. The doc was reluctant at first, trys to scare my sis, saying that its gonna be gross and unpleasant. But she insist on looking at the photos. Eventually, the doc gave way and show her the photos. It was pretty gross as the patient was badly hurt. But she found out that unlike wat the doc says, she felt that instead of chopping that huge part of, there might be chances of cutting a small part only. The doc agreed initially and yet he says that to cut a bigger portion is suggested, claiming it will not be effective if too small portion was cut. She ask more about this options but was turned away by the doc. My sis felt that he dun want to do this operation. He did mention that he will access the situation when he is in the operation table.

What she concluded after the discussion, we are all at the mercy of the "licensed killer". Just this time, he has every right to cut where ever he feels or he likes. In the end, he jus need to justify his "chopping skills". Further more, the part that he is talking about workmencomp and the $$$ is rather fishy. My sis felt that he wanted to suggest the operation that requires more operation since it is going to be covered by the workmencomp, and that he can claim more $$$ out of it, and yet the employer will not dish out too much for it. I got this feeling that the doc intend of options was not ethically justified. Feels that he is trying to cheat the workmencomp money at the mercy of the patient.

Poor worker, he doesnt even have any right to say anything... Before the operation, the doc says he will do option one on him. After he wok up from the surgery, option two was carried out and now he have pain when he wants to urinate. Ask the nurse to call for the doc, the nurse says the doc is busy and not around... Sigh... All we can do is console him and ask for a fairer treatment and/or investigation on the surgery from the corporate services tml...

In the end state, DUN FALL SICK, WHEN U DO, UR LIFE IS NOT AT UR HANDS ANYMORE. TREASURE IT WHILE U CAN...
