A group of doctors at the Dario Contreras Hospital have distanced themselves from the irregular sale of surgical materials. Meanwhile, the hospital director said that only two doctors were involved in the fraudulent practice. Dr. Hector Quezada said that the two unnamed doctors being linked with the irregular sales will be transferred to other health care centers and that other people who were implicated will receive what amounts to a slap on the wrist. Dr. Quezada added that these doctors had not taken out equipment, and that they had made the mistake of selling materials to patients in the hospital itself. Dr. William Frias, a spokesman for the group of doctors, said that the doctors have clean records and have done a remarkable job. He rejected the idea that anything was done to harm the patients. Dominican Medical Association (CMD) president Dr. Waldo Ariel Suero met with staff yesterday and received documents proving the irregularities, which were originally reported by trauma department head Dr. Francisco Guillermo Garcia Lorenzo.
