Elderly Doctor Was Apparently Unable to Hear Patient's Screams Because He Wasn't Wearing Hearing Aids
Briefly

Dr. Ishwari Prasad's failure to wear hearing aids led to a patient screaming during a colonoscopy, highlighting alarming negligence in patient care that bears serious consequences.
In a troubling incident, Dr. Prasad improperly delegated tasks to an unlicensed surgical assistant, putting patients at risk and underscoring serious lapses in medical protocols.
Despite being under probation and fined, the board’s decision raises questions about the accountability of medical practitioners and the trust patients place in their care.
Preventative measures like colonoscopies are crucial for cancer detection, reminding patients not to be deterred by one doctor's mistake but rather to advocate for their health.
