The District Medical Health Officer has exposed the fraud of a private hospital administrator who is a tenth grader and treats all ailments, including covid. The incident took place in Narasapuram in West Godavari district. DM&HO Dr. Sunanda on Saturday inspected on the complaints that Gabriel Hospital on Narasapuram Brahmin Federation Road was running a hospital illegally.

Satish (35), the hospital administrator who was recruited as the doctor, was asked by DMHO officials to show certificates and permits. When Satish told him that he did not even have a PMP or RMP certificate and that he had studied till the tenth standard, the hospital license was immediately cancelled and the officials seized the high-powered antibiotics there.
