His viral tweet got many other users to share their experience of interacting with unprofessional doctors. One user wrote:
“2 weeks ago a doc gave my children 1 min each after a wait of almost 2 hours (confirmed appointment). She didn’t check their throat or ear or chest, even though they were complaining of inflammation. My turn she was looking at the wrong file. Some doctors just don’t care.”

Misdiagnosis and malpractice should be duly addressed. Normalizing such mispractices only makes people more vulnerable. I know a 7-year-old child of a close relative recently lost his life due to this, nothing but trauma and mistrust for life for the family in our healthcare. https://t.co/e2NlTyn0Qu

Experienced this a few days back, when i visited an eyes specialist, he suggested me glasses for regular use. I asked to know the reason, he told me i have to work with him for at least year to understand the medical terms. https://t.co/y2eQ5rv3v5
