Stabbed Policeman gets new lease of life at Wockhardt Hospital Nagpur

Ravindra Chaudhary, a 50-year-old cop, got a new lease of life at Wockhardt Hospital, Nagpur after allegedly being brutally stabbed by a criminal a few days back. Profusely bleeding, he was rushed to Wockhardt Hospital’s emergency department after the incident where he was operated and his life was saved.

Mr. Chaudhary, a head constable in Kanhan Police station, was allegedly stabbed as many as eleven times on thighs, chest and abdominal area by a history-sheeter whose brother he had arrested in the past and the later was holding a grudge against him for the same. The assault happened using a knife that had injured him very badly. After the suggestion of treating doctor- Dr. Hemant Chhajed, General Surgeon, Wockhardt Hospitals, Nagpur, the victim was taken for an immediate surgery post clinical evaluation by a team of doctors.

“After performing rapid antigen test for COVID and routine investigations, along with transfusing four units of blood he was operated”, informed Dr. Hemant. “On examination, he was found to have omentum and bowel coming out from abdominal wounds. It was decided to immediately operate him for exploratory laparotomy which was necessary to save his life. The surgery was successful and he was discharged soon after”, he added.

“When I reached the hospital I was in shock but I was still glad to see that within such short span of time all the necessary investigations were done”, said Mrs. Chaudhary, wife of Ravindra Chaudhary. He was in such a serious condition in which most of the hospitals even decline to treat patients but Wockhardt hospitals accepted the case and treated him in a very nice way. Even the entire team of doctors came at such odd hours and explained each and everything to us with complete detail. Not just that, we were also given huge moral support by the entire Wockhardt team in such a difficult time. I have no relatives in town but the way my husband was taken care of in Wockhardt Hospital, I did not even feel that I needed someone. The most important thing was that the things were done very promptly and swiftly without wasting any time and everyone handled the situation with a calm and positive approach”, she added. She also admired the nursing and clinical care they received.

While talking about the incident, Mr. Chaudhary also thanked the entire team for his successful recovery. “It’s the best hospital in town without a second thought. I have got a new lease of life here which I am and will always be thankful for”, he added.
