Hospital Fires Doctor Over Misdiagnosis Death
Sanchamitr Hospital has terminated a doctor after an investigation found he fatally misdiagnosed a patient's acute coronary syndrome and communicated unprofessionally with the family, effective July 19.
Sanchamitr Hospital has dismissed a doctor immediately after investigations confirmed he misdiagnosed a male patient who subsequently died from acute coronary syndrome. The hospital's preliminary inquiry found that the physician had also communicated with the patient and family members in an unprofessional manner, violating hospital conduct regulations and medical ethics standards that require doctors to treat patients with respect. The dismissal became effective on July 19, 2025, and the hospital stated it is committed to providing comprehensive support to the patient's family and expressed sincere condolences.
