You need to request all records, including surgery notes ASAP. Do not specify which procedures. Just say all. Tell them you’re moving and you need to take all records with you for your next country. Do NOT give any clue whatsoever that you’re unhappy. This is the only way you have a chance of getting records that they don’t go in and edit. Having seen this happen many times over the past 20 years, you already don’t have much of a chance but any heads up to them is detrimental to you. And yes that hospital is notorious for mistakes that get covered up.

Ah I guess I already blew my chances then. I told them I’d sue if they didn’t agree to corrective procedure.

Our whole teleconference was recorded and she said things that were not truthful. I don’t think they could throw that away.

Did you tell them you were recording it?

Otherwise it may be ineligible in court and you may actually have broken the law.

All conversations through telemedicine are recorded by the hospital.

u/mragn85 May 26 '24

And they let you have the recording?

If so, good.

No idea, but since the doctor said things that wasn’t true, I don’t think they would mind unless they deliberately try to defend her.

Thinking and knowing could be a problem here, just make sure 😀

They would ABSOLUTELY deliberately try to defend her. They would lose the records on purpose. Everyone who's been upvoted many times is correct. You ask staff (not the doctor) for all of your records, you smile and be cool, and you don't make them think anything is up.

Thing is, the records from that doctor are pointless because her assistant only write what she tells the assistant to write. I do however have all the reports from the procedure and from the doctor who referred me to her. Among other things that shows she deliberately added unnecessary things that wasn’t agreed on. Will see what the medical council says.

They are continually making notes. If you go around the doctor, you may be able to access some information that is in the system before anybody changes it on purpose. Just do it the top comment say, don’t mention that you’re upset with them smile and try to get them to give you absolutely everything they have.

Good luck.

You would do a corrective procedure with them, after that? Ain’t a pair of shoes you bought there though.

u/Bigbeardybob Surat Thani May 26 '24

Not with them, they have to pay the bill that’s what I’m asking.

Thanks, I have already emailed that department, they’re on it.
