i am very sure because of in-efficient and well trained doctors he wasn’t given the right treatment and followups… Nigerian doctors with almighty mentality and attitude, they never re train.. a lot of people have died out bad or non available treatment.. misdiagnosis

I could not agree with you more@AD. I had a fall with bruises on my leg and went straight to a hospital in Ikeja, where it happened, it took several hours to finally see a doctor due to useless form fillings, card registration etc and few days later it developed into swelling and i quickly went to see a different doctor who only prescribed a gel to rob on the leg. After two weeks it got worst that i could not even put on sandal. A rush back to the hospital and now its my third visit to the hospital seeing three doctors and non of them suggested having an exray done to at least see what the cause of the swell or what is inside the abnormal swollen.
I had the grace to travel to the UK and immediately I got to the hospital, aside from the normal show of care and reassurance that everything is going to be alright, the first thing that was done was an exray and the doctor examined the result and states no fluid and other treatment was administered and within 3 days my leg was back to normal. What would have been my fate if i had not taking the trip that time? May God help us in this country.
