Doctor From Core Team Treating Eman Ahmed " World Fastest Woman" Resigns, Blames Uncaring Relatives

Dr Aparna Govil Bhasker, section chief of Bariatric Surgery at the Saifee Hospital who was one of the core team of doctors treating Eman Ahmed has "resigned". Bhasker took to Facebook to make the announcement, citing "uncaring relatives" as the reason behind the move.

"Eman's case is an example of the worst kind of assault that a patient's family can do to a doctor. It will be an example for patients to learn how to use the hospital system to your advantage by hook or by crook. It will be an example to follow for uncaring relatives that one can just dump their sister in a hospital and have the best time of their life. It will be an example for young doctors that they must never ever go out of their way to help someone and save a life because it can backfire badly," she says in the post.

Bhasker was one of the doctors who travelled to Alexandria to bring Eman to Mumbai. She was one of the doctors who was tasked with stabilizing Eman during the journey and spoke of the challenge to the media in the first few days that Eman came to Mumbai.

The announcement comes after Eman's sister Shaimaa Selim accused Dr Mufazzal Lakdawala and his team of being "liars". Shaimaa has claimed that Eman is very critical and that she hasn't lost 250 kgs as the doctor has claimed.

Saifee hospital has asked Shaimaa to take Eman back to Egypt in two weeks but Shaimaa has hit back at the hospital management and the doctors saying that they have not delivered on the promise to make Eman walk.

"What her sister has done is worse than physically assaulting a doctor. She has broken the bond of trust between doctors and patients. I am appalled at the irony that today when Eman’s health is the best that it has ever been in last 25 years, her sister chooses to go down this path," Bhasker has said in her emotional post.

Bhasker is also part of the Dr Lakdawala's CODS clinic in Gamdevi.
