Critical clinical red flags missed on my husband

Worst clinical care (radiology) one can ever experience at Morton and Partners at the Cape Town Medi Clinic !!!

My husband was referred for a Doppler and MSK ultrasound as he had unbearable pain in his calf and leg . Could hardly walk . They did what we thought was a Doppler and charged us R2200.00 and told him everything was fine and he must do a muscular skeletal ultrasound for muscle or tendon injury when we get back to Jhb. A few days later after flight back to Jhb , and unbearable pain we proceeded to a radiologist once again in Jhb . They picked up that he had critical limb ischemia ( nothing to do with tendons or muscles ) and he was immediately referred to a vascular surgeon for a femoral bypass and thrombectomy.

But everything “was fine “ as per the radiologist at Morton and partners .

My husbands health, life and limb were put at risk . I thank God for the radiologist in Jhb who excercised a high standard of care and didn’t miss the red flags 🚩 unbearable pain and inability to walk and emergency referred him to a vascular surgeon !
