Negligence is an universal phenomenon. If you think that only the doctors in developing countries seem to be negligent... try this news! The doctors in the Nashville town of Tennessee state in US has performed an operation on a different child. Jennifer Melton has given birth to a healthy child in the University Medical Center of her town. But she has found to her horror that the doctors has wrongly performed a minor operation on her child. A surgery called frenulectomy was performed where the skin under the patient's tongue would be cut off. Such a procedure would normally be performed if the kid is born with a tongue that's held to their skin. But Jennifer’s kid is perfectly alright. Now! With the unwanted surgery, her child might face severe problems while talking and eating. Clint Kelly, the family's attorney is all set to take some severe action against the hospital. Now! While negligence can be universal phenomenon, action against it may not. Barbecue, in India we can expect many such cases being left unnoticed.
