Nationwide anger continues to simmer over a shocking medical error that permanently ruined the lives of several people at a Nashville hospital earlier this week, as the hospital’s CEO is now in the spotlight.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Multiple patients went into cardiac arrest after a ‘pharmacy error’ led to a dangerous drug mix-up at Ascension Saint Thomas Midtown Hospital. They were given the wrong medication before surgery.
The four patients were reportedly given potassium instead of an anesthetic. The dangerous mix-up happened at the hospital’s in-house pharmacy.
As CBS notes, too much potassium administered too quickly can stop a person’s heart.
The hospital later said they were “sorry” for injecting the patients with too much potassium. But nobody is in the mood for accepting the apology.
Users on social media quickly discovered that the President and CEO of Ascension Saint Thomas Hospital is an Indian native, Dr. Shubhada Jagasia. She earned her Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery in Mumbai, India.
Under Jagasia’s leadership, Ascension Saint Thomas Hospital was named as one of the 10 best hospitals in Tennessee by U.S. News and World Report.
But Americans remained fixated on her Indian education, suggesting that the error occurred in part because Jagasia lacked credible educational qualifications. There is no evidence of this.
Most medical schools in America have higher standards than those in India.
“Dr. Shubhada Jagasia, hospital president and CEO”
In Nashville lol…what are we doing here?

Never put an Indian in charge of your hospital unless you want 3rd world results. https://t.co/Lw4kfImEgt

I’m so grateful that Dr Jagasia blessed us to immigrate to the US and run one of our major hospitals because there are no native born Americans who could have done the job…

Imagine going into a hospital for a knee replacement and never walking out. That’s exactly what happened to Glenda Dorton – instead of being administered the correct anesthesia, she was given potassium and is now paralyzed from the chest down.
