A doctor at the Tema General Hospital Lawrence Hoedoafia has allegedly battered an Anesthetic on duty Regina Efia Biama.
Mrs. Biama has been complaining of body pains, swollen forehead and mouth after Dr. Hoedoafia allegedly slapped her and she eventually sank into a sofa in the process.
“He then grabbed my legs and pulled them forcing me off the sofa to hit my head against a refrigerator wooden stand,” the mother of three told StarrFMonline.com.
“He then stepped on my abdomen and if it hadn’t been my braids I’m sure my head injury would have been worse,” the 38-year-old stated.
Narrating events leading up to the alleged physical assault, Mrs. Biama said she was late to work during her night shift on July 19, 2017 and at about 10pm, a fuming Dr. Hoedoafia accosted her in the Nurses’ Rest Room.
“He began raining insults on me and called me all sort of names,” Mrs. Biama recalled. “At a point he said I was stupid and since I couldn’t bear it anymore, I responded by telling him that he was referring to his mother and wife.”
“Immediately, he slapped me and began beating me all over.”
According to Mrs. Biama, Dr. Hoedofia did not heed to pleas from her colleagues who intervened and “he pushed them aside.”
Mrs. Biama said she was admitted at the Nabita Hospital for treatment that night after her husband had picked her up.
The case has been reported to the police. However, management of the Tema General Hospital has written to Mrs. Biama to withdraw the police case so it can be settled internally.
“They are threatening me… They are not minding me and want me to withdraw the case. I suspect a cover up… I have suffered psychologically and I want justice to be done,” Mrs. Biama opined.
Dr. Hoedoafia told Starrfmonline.com “management is handling the case” so he cannot comment on the issue.

Kuuku it's good you said my moda and no other person bcos my mum is actually not alive. My prayer for you is that you may fall victim to a nurse anaesthetist who for whatever trivial reason decide to delay your surgical procedure. And it shall come to pass
Wait till this woman comes late and insults the surgeon whilst your wife dies in labor that's when you will know whether the passionate dutiful doctor shd be jailed
When i see commentd like that of Yaw,I immediately know who exactly he is. Clearly someone who knows absolutely NOTHING! 1.There was no verification of the story whatsoever. 2. Nurse anaesthetists claim they're not part of the nurses body 3. You're more than a villager yourself because you don't know what investigations mean. Too jealous of doctors,why??? hoh! SHAME ON YOU,PEACEFM!!!!
@waa look. Your moda!!! If the nurse were your sister or mother,would you talk like this? Twerp!
I'm shocked by the comments here. YOU AND I WERE NOT THERE. why do nurses envy doctors this much? the nature of the job is such that doctors give orders to nurses even in the case of giving patient medication. Pls don't take our modesty to be weakness. Medical Schools are many now so if you're not content with your profession go to med school. All we need is to respect each other and do the right thing at the right time. Let's save our patients. IT'S TEAMWORK AND RESPECT
The nurses must not work until justice is done.Any of them might be the next victim. Some Drs feel they are the thin gods in our hospitals.Ghana Registered Nurses Association is the most ***barred word*** body. What are they waiting for This village Dr must be sentenced
If this story is true, then I think the doctor should be jailed. Is the doctor trying to say he is always on time to work. If you wouldn't someone to say certain words to your MOTHER, WIFE OR DAUGHTER, why should you use that same word to another female you think you are not related. This is an assault and if it was in the western country this uncivilized doctor, would have been jailed and compensate the lady nurse.
