I was on the gurney bed, ready for my coloscopy procedure and this doctor (Venkatachala Mohan, MD) came to explain what was gonna happen. English is my second language so I couldn't understand his accent multiple times and I had to ask politely for him to repeat.
In some point, he touched my knee that I thought it was very strange, never a doctor touched my body without my permition nor for no reason.
I didn't have eaten, I was restless, the situation I was in was stressful enough, I couldn't say anything at the time, but the unprofessional behavior bottered me.
After the procedure, my husband arrived, the doctor started to explain my results, when I asked again what he said, he asked me where is was from. SO he started to talk about my country which he said there were a lot of crimes and that an India influencer made a YouTube video about his experience there and he started telling me details about what happened... I was in shock, and trying to defend my country. I said that the Pandemic made the things very hard for a lot of people. Then he added that women from my country wants to marry Indian guys because they would not need visa to come to the United States, serious?!!!
I NEVER HEARD SOMETHING SO UPSETING! My husband is American, I didn't marry to him for a greencard, but it was exactly what he was saying... the situation was so awkward, I couldn't believe I was listening all that bad comments of prejudice from a doctor that I just had coloscopy with, VERY unprofessional... I felt morally and emotionally abused! I can't believe this doctor is working here in America.
