A doctor whose negligent acts caused the death of a patient has been struck off. Isyaka Mamman was working at the Royal Oldham Hospital when his patient and mother-of-three Shahida Parveen died.
The 48-year-old attended the facility for a bone marrow biopsy that was said to be routine but Mamman carried out a 'highly dangerous procedure' rarely used in the UK that led to the mother's death after ignoring the conventional technique, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Mrs Parveen collapsed before her husband ran out of the room shouting: "He killed her! I told him to stop three times and he did not listen. He killed her," after the doctor attempted to take a sample from her hip bone, but was unsuccessful and instead took a sample from the patient's sternum.
