'We can't keep up with what every doctor and what everyone is doing at all times. It's a large hospital,' said a Mayo Hospital official who did not want to be named.
An 80-year-old woman died on Sunday after an ex-security guard at a Pakistani hospital posed as her doctor and performed surgery on her back.
"We can't keep up with what every doctor and what everyone is doing at all times. It's a large hospital," said a Mayo Hospital official. Public hospitals in Pakistan require patients to make payments towards their treatments. Begum's family paid Butt for the surgery, as well as two home visits to check and attend to her wound. It wasn't until her bleeding and pain worsened and her family took her back to the hospital, that officials and Begum's family figured out what had happened.
