Fake Doctor's Last Five Patients Died on Day of Surgery, Reveals Shocking Report
MP 'Fake' Cardiologist Dr N John Camm’s Last 5 Patients Died on Day of Surgery: Report
Narendra Vikramaditya Yadav, who posed as a renowned UK-based heart specialist under the alias ‘Dr John Camm,’ is at the center of a disturbing medical scandal in Madhya Pradesh. According to a report by The Indian Express, the last five patients he operated on died on the very day of their procedures.
Official inspection records presented in the Madhya Pradesh Assembly paint a grim picture. Yadav, who was allegedly performing angioplasty procedures without valid medical credentials, conducted 12 such surgeries at Mission Hospital in Damoh between January 2 and February 11. Out of those, five patients died the same day they were treated—two during the procedure itself and three shortly after.
What’s more alarming is that these five deaths occurred consecutively within a span of less than a month. The patients—all aged between 51 and 75—were:
* Raheesa Begum (63) — January 15
* Israel Khan (75) — January 17
* Buddha Ahirwar (67) — January 25
* Mangal Singh Rajput (65) — February 2
* Satyendra Singh Rathore (51) — February 11
Following the final surgery, Yadav resigned and reportedly left the hospital, even taking a portable echocardiogram machine with him, the report said.
Deputy Chief Minister Rajendra Shukla admitted in the Assembly on Friday that the hospital had failed to notify health authorities of Yadav’s appointment, a clear violation of the Madhya Pradesh Nursing Homes and Clinical Establishments (Registration and Licensing) Act. This failure meant there was no chance for the government to verify Yadav’s qualifications before he began performing critical medical procedures.
Yadav was arrested in April and remains in judicial custody. He faces multiple serious charges, including fraud, impersonation, and culpable homicide.
In response to the incident, disciplinary action has been initiated against senior health officials in Damoh district for their negligence and failure to enforce proper oversight.
The case has sparked widespread outrage and raised serious questions about regulatory lapses in private healthcare institutions.
