Dr Maima was exposed when she failed to properly respond to some queries of the hospital’s neurosurgery department head Prof Dr Rizwan Masood Butt during a round of the ward.
On suspicion, Prof Butt alerted the hospital administration, which sent her academic credentials to the University of Health Sciences, King Edward Medical University and other institutions for verification, only to learn the documents were bogus.
The motion claimed that a Young Doctors Association (YDA) leader, Dr Jafar, had introduced Ms Maima as his fiancé and used his influence to get her selected as house officer in the hospital, where she worked under Surgeon Prof Dr Javed Gardezi in the general surgery ward for three months.
Then she was transferred to the neurosurgery department, where she operated upon many patients.
The comments on the article suggests that she'll probably be assisting a neurosurgeon and not perform surgery independently. It's still a problem to have someone like her in the OT with such a sensitive surgery.
Pathetic. She should be sent straight to jail for the rest of her life. By any means playing with the lives of people can't be justified. Don't know why there aren't no strict laws on such things in Pakistan..? Why Govt. Authorities and private sector don't take such things seriously? Its straight like murdering someone.
This is nothing.
An acquaintance of mine claims that her bhabhi in Gujranwala runs a clinic and performs surgeries. She is matric pass only and learned surgery by watching surgeons she was assisting for many years.
