I recently underwent a minor surgery at a well-known hospital in Mysore. Unfortunately, something went wrong during the procedure, resulting in permanent damage. I’m constantly in pain and it’s affecting my daily life. Can I hold the doctor and the hospital accountable for this? Who should I contact to file a complaint? What should I keep in mind while making the complaint? I’m a 32-year-old engineer with a family to support.

Yes, you can hold the doctor and hospital accountable for medical negligence. You can file a complaint with the Medical Council of India, the Consumer Forum, or directly with the hospital. Ensure you gather all medical records and evidence of negligence, and consult a lawyer for expert advice and guidance.
