Balochistan doctors protest

QUETTA:Doctors here Saturday boycotted Out Door Patient Departments (OPDs) and General Operation Theatres (OTs) of government-run hospitals.

The doctors are observing two-day strike on the call of Doctors Action Committee.

The patients hailing from far flung areas suffered a lot due to absence of doctors in OPDs. Indoor patients admitted in the hospitals also faced a lot of problems.

However, doctors discharged their duties in private hospitals and clinics.

The protesting doctors are that latest health facilities be provided to government-run hospitals, and their doctors be saved from attacks of patients and their attendants.
