A video is shared on Reddit where a lady doctor is seen telling her ordeal when a father booked her for an appointment for his child’s evaluation.

The doctor by the name of Rashmeet Kaur, who is a Pediatric Physical Therapist narrates that she could not be there at the time of appointment for some reason. However, the father of the child did not took it kindly and made a ruckus at the clinic, compelling the staff to call the doctor and ask to take further steps in order to mitigate the situation.

The doctor advised him to get evaluation from the other doctor present at the clinic but the father wanted evaluation done by Dr. Rashmeet only. Rashmeet opined that she could hear the argumentative voice of the child’s father on the phone venting his anger on her and the staff.

Feeling disrespected, Rashmeet refused to provide any treatment to the child and ordered them to go away from the clinic.

The Lady doctor in the video could be seen berating the father of the child for not having empathy with her as she had to be somewhere else at the time of appointment saying that “You are not obligated to treat any patient who disrespects you”

Netizens tears apart Doctor for feeling “Entitled”

However, netizens showed a huge backlash to the lady doctor and most of the comments reflected a sentiment that doctors like her do not respect the patient’s valuable time. Many Redditors opined that the doctor should have informed the father before when she knew about not being able to make it to the appointment on time.

The video surfaced on the Instagram in August of this year but has recently gone viral on few social media platforms.

In a scenario where a father has taken out time and energy to seek medical service for his child, it may be apt for physicians to inform the parent if they aren’t able to make it to the appointment for any reason.
