A member asked:
Is it ok to repeat an operation just done after 4 days and do we need to double pay when it was the dr's fault to overlooked the bone to be removed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Local issue: Sometimes operations need to be redone for many reasons, including errors. Sometimes the errors are avoidable, and other time they are not. The issue of payment is a local issue that should be worked out between the doctor and the patient/family. I'm sure you will be able to come to a fair resolution. Hope this helps!
