Controversy and Criticism

North India’s first multiple sclerosis treatment centre at Vimhans

New Delhi’s first specialised multiple sclerosis (MS) treatment centre was inaugurated by the Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit at Vimhans in the presence of the patients, caregivers and doctors.

The MS center at Vimhans would reportedly be North India’s first dedicated MS-care centre where patients will get comprehensive management by a team of experts, including neurologists, psychologists, psychiatrists, physical and occupational therapists, urologists, and radiologists, all under the same roof.

[1]

Absence of Free Treatment for Poor Patients

In 2001, Times of India reported that Vimhans was in violation with an agreement by the Delhi Government. The agreement stipulated that the hospital has to provide free treatment to 70 percent of its admitted patients. Vimhans ignored this stipulation, and then stated it would provide free treatment to 40 percent of its admitted patients. The latter promise was neither followed through by the trust operating the hospital.[2]

Medical Negligence of Female Patient

In 2005, Vimhans treated a 43-year-old female patient. The patient suffered a partial paralysis and was admitted to the hospital. During the treatment, the hospital staff mistakenly administered a high dose of steroids into the right arm of the patient. The arm immediately began swelling, the doctors advised that it wasn't dangerous. Eventually, the arm had to be amputated. She was transferred to AIIMS.[3]

Treatment of Gitanjali Nagpal

In 2007, under a court order, Vimhans provided treatment to a well known model named Gitanjali Nagpal.

Treatment of Syd Kid (assumed name)

In 2016, for medical detoxification and supervision, S. Kid checked in voulantarily but, was delayed 48 hours as the beds were unavailable. The patient then, checked in 48 hours later. By that time, the withdrawal symptoms were gone but he was still taken to the hospital and stays there till date despite the symptoms going away before admission.The patient stays there till date as advised by the doctor.
