I want to share my worst life time experience and it is with Manipal hospital, Bangalore(Old Airport Road).
I am 28 years old and found to be completely fit and healthy with no running medications. I went to OPD of Manipal Hospital on 18th Aug night 9.00 pm for continuous vomiting. I was suffering from vomiting that day with severe acidity and that happened due to eating outside food. We went to OPD, the doctors over there started treating me, put saline. That time, my BP was very low and that was due to dehydration as I was vomiting since morning. But, they took that issue so unusual and started doing lot of tests as ECG, Echo, sonography, blood tests etc. One of the doctor is saying its abnormal pregnancy and other is coming and saying its some infection stomach. No one knows what to do? They are putting injections, drips, everywhere on my body. It was going on uptill 3.00 am. Then they took me for CT scan and finally they decided that I need close monitoring and admitted me in Intensive Care Unit(ICU).
We are unable to get, what they are doing and I was normal and was in all senses and telling them continuously that I am fine. But, they were making their own stories and telling me that I am not fine. At 4.00 am, they admitted me in ICU. And till then, they were unable to stop me acidity and vomiting. I told the ICU doctor to give me medicine for vomiting and then they gave me. And then they told me to put on ventilator. Ventilator? As if I am dying. A young girl who is feeling perfectly fine and suddenly someone is saying that u need ventilator…Its ridiculous. I refused to do that but they insisted me to do for 3hours. I did it.
In morning, I was perfectly fine. My vomiting stopped. Then again in morning cardiologists’ team came, they did Echo, ECG again and reported that there is some heart infection. Then other team came, and told, it might be Dengue. And they told to do MRI. And, I was continuously telling doctors that its food poisoning as I ate outside food but they were not ready to listen me. But, I refused. And, I was keep asking my nurse about the reports. All were normal. All blood tests were normal.
We realized that they are just making money from us. Then in evening, we decided to get discharge. Then attendant doctor refused to discharge me. But my husband and I was adamant to give me discharge. Doctor told my husband that anything can happen to me, its on your own risk you are moving out. He wanted to frighten us. But, we refused and we told them to discharge, And I told nurse to call doctor to see me and give some medicines or prescription, but doctor refused to come. I have not seen such doctor with no heart and no courtesy for his patients. He didn’t come to meet me and prescribe me any medicines rather he told you are absolutely fine and you don’t need anything. If I didnt need anything then why he kept me in ICU?
And, then I visited other physician and she gave me just 2 medicines and I was perfectly fine. But, because of so many injections, drips I felt more weak and recovered from that weakness in 15 days.
This was totally nightmare for me and my family. Horrible experience. I will never enter in that hospital again. They just ask in beginning that you are having insurance and if they know this, they start treating you with unwanted tests and medicines and just charge you high and earn money. They charged with Rs 95, 000/- for just one day. The bill detailed charges for 3 times echo and 3 time secg. In one day they are doing 3 times same test and charging again and again. I Have not seen such treatment. They are looting people and playing with their body.
