A refusal of medical assistance in Unión de Reyes



On Wednesday April 15, 2015 Julia Silvia Glez acompanied by brother took her mother, a woman of 76 years, to the polyclinic due to very high blood pressure. Her mother was operated on for cancer in three times. Arriving at polyclinic Julia had to go to the room of Diúfer (doctor on duty that night), to tend to their mother. Annoyed he went into the room and medicated captopril. After an hour Julia returned to konck on the door of the doctor's room. There he used to lock himself in his room to play games on your mobile phone. Seeing the bad mood of the physician who did not help her mother, Julia asked to speak with the head-doctor of PAME to complain. The head-doctor came, she called the physician on duty and attended personally to the patient. After that Julia went to the room and this grumpy disrespect Diúfer denied assistance. With such helplessness and concern for the health of his mother, Julia pounced on the doctor pulling his hair and giving him two slaps. Friday the 17th was summoned to the Police Unit of Union de Reyes where she was imposed a fine of $ 50.00 pesos in national currency. They also raised her official warning which she did not sign. Many are the complaints of the people by poor attention of this Ecuadorian doctor. Whenever he stands guard he is locked in his room playing on your mobile and he is getting annoyed each time if somebody knocks on the door due to attending to patients.
