Medipol Hastanesi'nde görev yapmakta olan Doç. Dr. Veysel Kıdır'a 26.01.2025'de eşim f*** k*** muayene oldu; kendisi bırakın hasta psikolojisinden anlamayı, maalesef insan gibi konuşmaktan dahi aciz!
Ne kadar iyi niyetli ve sabırlı yaklaşsanız da kendisi ile iletişim kurmanız mümkün değil! Özetle; oğlum ömer için ayın 20'sinde çocuk bölümünde üç gün yatış yaptık ve taburcu olduk. Oğlum taburcu olduğunun ertesi günü kızım zeynep yatış yaptı. Şu anda halen hastanede yatmaktayız, bir haftadır bu bölümdeki hem doktorumuz Uzm.Dt Fırat Bedir'in hem canla başla çalışan hemşirelerimizin hem de kat görevlisi arkadaşlarımızın ilgisinden çok memnun kaldık. Hepsine ayrıca teşekkür ediyorum fakat işini yapmaktan aciz, sözüm ona doçent olmuş bu şahıs gibi insanlar Medipol ailesinde olmamalı kanaatindeyim.
Bir haftadır çocuklarımızın sağlık mücadelesini veren annemizin metabolizması maalesef çöktü, ateşi yükseldi ve sıtma tuttu ama bu şahıs annemizi yani eşimi üzülerek söylüyorum ki ağlattı.Odasına girme teşebbüsünde bulunmayın çünkü kendisi padişah olduğu için odasına secde ederek girmenizi bekliyor.Yanında çalışan insanlarıda bezdirdiği o kadar belli ki Allah eşine sabır versin dediğimde tüm personel güldü.
Zaten insanlar canıyla uğraşıyor, iki çocukla mücadele veriyoruz. Yaşadıklarımıza bakın. Hastane yönetiminden gerekenin yapılacağından hiç endişem yok.
