Man Slams Indian Hospital After Elderly Grandmother Waits Hours

Long Wait for Ultrasound and Report

The post was shared by Ankit Pandey on X (formerly Twitter). He said he took his grandmother for a routine check-up when the doctor advised an ultrasound.

According to him, they waited around two hours for the ultrasound and another two hours for the report. He claimed that although an ultrasound report usually takes only a short time, they received it much later.

By that time, the doctor had already left, and they were asked to return the next day.

An ultrasound report barely takes 10-15 minutes to prepare, yet by the time we got it, the doctor had already left… pic.twitter.com/3SWAMKdcn8
