Surgeon, Pissed-Off He Was Not Given His Tea, Walks Out of Surgery Midway

Dealing with a surgeon who's a diva can be both distressing and dangerous, as some patients are learning the hard way. In a startling case of complete medical negligence, a doctor at a government-run hospital in Nagpur abandoned an operation mid-procedure simply because he was upset about not being served tea. This incident occurred at the local health center in Mauda tehsil of Nagpur on November 3. Remarkably, eight women were scheduled for family planning surgery (vasectomy) that day.

From NDTV:

After performing surgeries on four women and administering anesthesia to the rest of the female patients, the doctor identified as Tejrang Bhalavi, requested a cup of tea from the hospital staff. However, when his request went unfulfilled, he unexpectedly left the operation theatre without performing the remaining operations.

When the hospital administration contacted the district medical officer after Doctor Bhalavi's departure, another doctor was sent to perform surgeries on the rest of the anesthetised women. 

The district administration has now ordered an inquiry into the matter.
Over a telephone call, Nagpur Zilla Parishad's CEO Soumya Sharma said that a three-member committee has been formed to investigate the case. Appropriate action against the doctor will be taken based on the committee's report. 

The doctor is currently under investigation for this incident. Meanwhile, let's hope there's a Yelp in Nagpur where his ratings can take a hit. Or, if he happens to be your surgeon, you might want to consider bringing a cup of tea to your next surgery.
