My mother got admitted in this hospital and was initially diagnosed with TB . Was confined in ICU and treated with strong lung medication for TB. Needless to say she should have had at least biopsy taken before aggressive wrong pulmonary medication. Since she did'n't get good response to med after three weeks in ICU, they took X-ray of the lung and foundl liquid starting to form on the bottom of the lung cavity. They extracted the fluid and found to be cancerous. On the forth week my mom died.

She was strong when she was admitted and if she was properly diagnosed she could have had lobectomy which is removal of the affected area and may have lived up to now.

We have the resources to cover operation if necessary but poor judgement of the the medical staff including doctors makes a big difference whether you will survive in this hospital or not considering the fees are high. St Luke's would have been better choice, US affiliates are brought here, I wish I had known that. Don't make same mistakes we did.
