Medical doctor accuses colleague of killing sister due to neglect

Narrating a blow by blow account on her Facebook timeline, Naa Teley, who is also a doctor, said when her sister arrived at the hospital, doctors demanded GHc1700 for a 3 day stay in a six-bedder room and demanded immediate payment before she is admitted.

According to Ms Teley, her sister was given the wrong medication after the doctor at the facility claimed she had typhoid psychosis.

In an angry tone, she demanded on Facebook why she should be told to be mute over the matter.

“Yes, I am a doctor and yes until Dr. J. J. Lamptey, of valley view clinic, Dzorwulu resurrects my sister to life and cease my pain, I will talk of him anyhow I deem fit on social media, in my home, in my sleep and everywhere I chose at any point. I hate it when colleagues try to play "he is your colleague nonsense on me." Did he treat me as a colleague? Did he treat my sister as a human? Would he administer 2g of chloramphenicol ( 6times the usual dose for a drug that has been banned since the '90s) together with Cipro, cefuroxime, and other fifth antibiotic to even a pig, let alone a girl who was walking, talking like you and I with a widal titre of 1/40 and 1/80 (O and H) claiming she has typhoid psychosis?” she asked on her Facebook timeline.

She further accused the doctor of failing to alert the relatives of the deceased when her condition became worse, but rather left her at the mercy of a taxi driver, where she was “dumped” at the 37 Military Hospital.

Below is how Teley narrated the incident on Facebook:

Yes, I am a doctor and yes until Dr. J. J. Lamptey, of valley view clinic, Dzorwulu resurrects my sister to life and cease my pain, I will talk of him anyhow I deem fit on social media, in my home, in my sleep and everywhere I chose at any point.

Will he refuse to call the immediate relative of the girl when she was dieing and ask that a taxi driver take her to 37 military and dump her? Will he charge freaking ghc1700 for a 3 day stay in a six-bedder room in a his clinic and demand immediate payment before she even lies down? Will he keep the dead body of the girl in the sun and insult the poor mother and sister of the deceased and bulley them to accept typhoid psychosis as a cause of death? Will he look on unconcerned as the "colleague " cradle her dead sister in a taxi in hot Accra sun from one police station to another for close to 5hrs,her body almost decomposing and being denied admission into a morgue because he refused to sign a coroners request? Do not anger me this evening. Delete your message from my inbox before I descend on you with three years of grief and pains. Until you feel what I felt in the hands of that doctor, I have no level ground to discuss anything with you. Until you stand and watch your only sibling being dissected in a pathlab, you have no moral grounds to call me to order. Until you have suffered negligence firsthand as I did, I have nothing to say to you.And may God help me not to be as callous fraudulent and wicked as this man all the days of my remaining life.
