A woman has come forward with a disturbing account of her experience at Prestige HealthCare in Githurai, claiming she was sedated and subjected to unspecified medical procedures without her consent.
According to her account, she visited the clinic on a Saturday for a pelvic scan and was escorted inside while her boyfriend waited at the reception. After the scan, she was told she had a growth in her uterus that needed to be removed by surgery. When she expressed hesitation and requested a second opinion, the doctor allegedly told her he needed to examine her first.
The woman claims she was given tablets and a line injection, which she later realized were meant to sedate her. She woke up in a ward, disoriented and scared, with no memory of what had happened. Her boyfriend's inquiries and demands for answers were met with evasive responses from the clinic staff.
The woman's account raises serious concerns about the clinic's practices and the potential harm caused to her and possibly other patients. She has sought help from other hospitals, including Kasarani and Neema, but claims to have found little assistance.
A gynecologist at Neema hospital reportedly suspected that she might have been sedated and subjected to unwanted medical procedures. A subsequent pelvic scan found no growth in her uterus, leading her to suspect that the clinic might be using dubious methods to extort money from patients.
The woman is seeking help to expose the alleged wrongdoing and prevent further harm to others. She has provided contact information for the clinic, including phone numbers and an address.
