My wife's treatment by Doctor Desai. FOR FULL STORY CLICK URL.
I have not filed a lawsuit against Doctor Desai, but I should have.
Doctor Desau and his clinic treated my wife. She was schedueled to have a endoscopy of her throat at the clinic.
We keep he appointment that day, she is taken in, only to be returned about ten minutes later.
She has a anti biotic hooked up to her. I ask the nurse why?
"The doctor didn't know she has two mechanical heart valves and needs this before they procede." She tells me.
Didn't anyone at all look at here medical record in all this time from the initial exam two weeks ago?
Didn't they see she is a stroke victim, partially paralixed, confined to a wheel chair, is a diabetic, cannot swllow os speak due to the stroke, and that she has two mechanical valves in her chest? Evidently no one looked or cared.
She is taken back again for the test only to return again a half hour later.
Nurse, "The couldn't go ahead she was to difficult to have the tube inserted, It will have to be done at a hospital so she can be put asleep." I am told.
"Didn't they sedate her." I ask.
"NO." WAS HER REPLY.
It's on her record for that day, (no sedation)
What happened at the hospital is too long a story to include here.
They put the final nail on my wif's coffin.

My answer to "Average citizen:"
The doctors pay high insurance rates for the protection, why shouldn't they pay ?

Subject: Re: THERE OUGHT TO BE A LAW
Sadly, I must agree with the decision against allowing the lawsuit to procede against Nevada Mutual as they, too, were also merely victims of Dr. Desai.
However, not to rule to allow the Class-action Lawsuit to continue is tantamount to a rape victim being screwed over by some legal technicaliy. Obviously, when several people come forward with empiracal evidence of malpractice by the one man who they placed their hopes and trust in, this must show that there is clearly a risk to the health and safety of the general public and the Government is entrusted to provide us, it's citizens. with a CONSTITUTIONAL PROTECTION to matters of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Now, the Legal System, usually favors the Criminally Negligent Doctors by placing such huge roadblocks in the path of the 'VICTIMS". They must first find a lawyer willing to fight the System, then they need to pay Tens of Thousands of Dollars to Medical WItnesses of equal stature to the accused doctor. Surely if Dr. Desai has done no harm by his actions, then other medical pesonnel would not come forward for any payment....but if he has, where do victims get the money to pay medical witnesses?
Do you think the Average Joe has that kind of cash ? No, Sacrifices would have had to be made by the Doctor's Victims. I see Mortgages and Credit Cards ( and, perhaps, cashing in the kid's College Funds) coming into the picture.
In the end it will ll be worth it, right? As this case shows, the answer is WRONG.
I think that you should also know that I have no physical connection to this case or any of its participants. I am, however, emotionally connected and appalled, as every normal citizen would be, by what I see. I think its time that the Courts dispence with the technicalities and get back to the business of Justice.
I think Judge Judy has the right idea. Let the Victims prove their case by a preponderence of the evidence then give us a ruling by the SPIRIT of the law, not the letter of the law.
