In the footage reflected on the security camera in the operating room, it was seen that the doctor punched the 82-year-old female patient 3 times in the face, and the nurse intervened in the patient who moved after the doctor hit her.
The hospital's umbrella organization AIER Eye Hospital Group announced that the incident was not reported to the center at the time of the incident, but after the footage emerged, the doctor was suspended and the hospital administrator was dismissed.
In a statement, it was said that the doctor intervened with "brute force" against the patient, who moved his head and eyes many times while being operated on with local anesthesia, on the grounds that he spoke a different language.
