The Tamil Nadu Medical Council lodged a complaint with the Directorate of Medical Services (DMS) against a doctor practising in Theni district even after his licence was cancelled over alleged medical negligence.
The members of the council said Dr S Dhinesh did not provide proper post-operative care to patient after he underwent cardiac surgery at a private hospital in Chennai a couple of years ago, leading to the patient’s death. “After his licence was cancelled for one year following an inquiry, he moved to Theni district from Chennai and has been practising,” they said, terming it as equivalent to quackery.
