Hindustan Times  

Mumbai: Grant Medical College and Sir JJ Hospital administration have sent a notice to Dr Ragini Parekh, head of the department of ophthalmology seeking an explanation on Dr Sumeet Lahane performing cataract surgeries, and seeing patients in the outpatient department. JJ Hosp ophthalmology dept row: Dean sends notice to HOD On May 30, HT reported on the resident doctors’ letter to the dean alleging Dr Sumeet Lahane son of ex-dean of JJ Hospital and ex-DMER Dr TP Lahane, attempted to manipulate and intimidate them into withdrawing their initial complaint against his father. Meanwhile, JJ Hospital also found out Dr Parekh and seven honorary doctors, who had resigned on May 31 citing ‘personal reasons’, had faulted the National Medical Commission norm and not registered themselves to be biometric. Close to 750 resident doctors at Sir JJ Hospital went on an indefinite strike from May 31, seeking immediate action by the government against ex-DMER director Dr T P Lahane and ophthalmology department head Dr Ragini Parekh for their allegedly dictatorial way of running the department.
