Abuse probe at Georgetown hospital

Complainant not surprised at hospital’s findings

Charmain De Mendonca, the accident victim who says she was abused at the hands of a doctor at the Georgetown hospital called the hospital unprofessional after it failed to inform her about its findings one week after an internal probe was completed.

In an invited comment, Chief Executive Officer Michael Khan told Stabroek News on Wednesday that he was legally advised that he did not have to inform De Mendonca of the findings. He later contacted the paper to say that he had forgotten to mention that he would be writing the woman yesterday to inform her of the results.
