Just
a
manageable
hospital.
If
you
need
serious
specialist
attention,
this
is
not
the
hospital
for
you.
When
my
wife
put
to
bed
here
late
at
night
in
September
2017,
it
was
phone
torchlight
that
the
doctor
and
nurse
attended
to
her
with.
Being
first
pregnancy
she
got
a
tear
and
stitches.
All
these
were
done
with
the
doctor
using
phone
torch.
You
can
imagine.
There
was
no
light,
and
they
didn't
put
on
their
standby
generator.
Also,
if
you
must
use
this
hospital,
make
sure
you
are
literate
enough
to
check
the
medication
you
are
given.
There
are
a
lot
of
doctors
here
who
are
not
sure
of
what
they
are
doing.
On
one
occasion
I
took
my
daughter
for
checkup
because
of
small
boils
she
had.
The
so-called
doctor,
in
our
presence,
browsed
the
Internet
and
prescribed
for
us
a
drug
that
we
couldn't
find
in
eight
pharmacies
in
Awka
town.
Those
pharmacies
have
not
even
heard
of
the
drug
before.
We
went
back
to
the
hospital
and
met
another
doctor
who
prescribed
Loratadine
and
Prednisolone.
I
did
a
check
and
saw
that
Loratadine
should
not
be
given
to
children
less
than
2yrs.
My
daughter
was
6months
at
that
time.
I
refused
giving
her
the
drug.
Meanwhile
Prednisolone
is
an
immune
suppressant.
But
we
still
gave
it
to
her
because
it
should
reduce
the
itching
she
was
having.
In
few
days
a
boil
under
her
jaw
became
so
big
and
painful(it
probably
grew
because
of
immune
system
suppression
by
that
drug).
We
returned
to
the
hospital
and
were
fortunate
to
be
attended
to
by
the
Chief
Pediatrician.
As
he
read
my
daughter's
folder,
he
kept
shaking
his
head.
Eventually
he
said
the
medications
we
were
given
in
the
past
were
not
meant
for
the
health
issues
my
daughter
had!
He
then
prescribed
antibiotics,
and
with
just
a
day
of
use,
that
big
evil
boil
opened
and
released
frightening
quantity
of
pus!
Meanwhile
my
daughter
had
gone
through
almost
two
weeks
of
anguish
because
of
those
previous
fit-to-be-decertified
doctors!
I
only
continue
going
to
the
hospital
because
that's
where
my
health
insurance
is
domiciled,
and
I
always
wear
my
thinking
cap.
