My mother was admitted in icu on 24th april after experiencing high palpations and tremors. She was in very distressed condition and was visibly very uncomfortable but nurses ignored her for many hours in icu. My sister was able to reach her after few hours and found out, from nurse on duty, that the doctor is sleeping on job. My sister then woke up the doctor and requested him to actually do the work what he was supposed to do.in icu she was given unnecessay treatment of high doses of antibiotics, steriods and lasix inspite of the fact (After doing all necessary tests – echo, ecg and blood) that there is no evidence of heart failure, kidney problems or any bacterial infections etc. After this unnecessary treatment she almost went into coma but recovered only after my father complained and managed to change the doctor. The new doctor continued high doses o[censored]nnecessary treatment of antibiotics, lasix etc but he at least included the treatment of side effects caused by those drugs. At the end, after 15 days in icu and hospital stay she was nanaged to get discharged. She is still recovering from after effects of the medication but at least now in a good care of a doctor from different hospital.
Based on my experience, it seems apollo hospital only care about the money and not patient. They do their best to prolong the stay by giving very high doses o[censored]nnecessary drugs and then treating its side effects. There seems to be good evidence of medical malpractice.
