Mr. Minister, Tie Your Dog! – Specialists At SJGH And AMS Tell Rajitha

Senaratne with Health minister Senaratne

OCTOBER 22, 2018

In the aftermath of the unprecedented and unceremonious dismissal of the chairman and quasi director of Sri Jayewardenepura General Hospital (SJGH) from a meeting they themselves convened to oust the three honest specialists who have consistently resisted the illegal ‘appointment ‘ of the said quasi director, things have reportedly taken a berserk turn, Colombo Telegraph reliably learns. 

The quasi director, not seen in the hospital premises in the aftermath of this embarrassing incident was reportedly loitering around Rajitha Senaratne along with the chairman, Dr Athula Kahandaliyanage. They have been begging the minister to sack the three honest consultants, namely, Dr Kanishka Indraratne, Dr Madhawa Karunaratne and Dr Prabhath Ambawatte, who are standing their ground about the occupation of the office of director SJGH by a totally unqualified Dr Susitha Senaratne.  

Susitha Senaratne, noted lackey of Rajitha Senaratne was a medical officer in the Lady Ridgeway Hospital and was running a small private practice in Malambe prior to occupying the office of Director SJGH through political thuggery. He has no academic or professional qualifications to hold his current office. 

Quasi Director Gone Berserk!

Susitha Senaratne having failed in his bid to show his political muscle by getting such letter issued by Rajitha Senaratne has posted on Facebook stating SJGH a dangerous place for children to be treated at. This move is believed to be due to his rift with Prof. Rohan Aloysius who has been standing up against the illegal appointment of Susitha Senaratne and also has been a vocal resister of the corruption and financial mismanagement under the current Chairman. In response, Susitha Senaratne has resorted to the dirty trick of cyber bullying and defaming the hospital on Facebook. 

Susitha Senaratne in violation of the Hospital Act, medical ethics and common law of the land has posted the following statement of his Facebook page stating that the children undergoing treatment in his own hospital where he claims to be the ‘director’, is unsafe for their lives. 

Retaliation Of Specialists And Staff

The specialists at SJGH have been prompt in their retaliation towards this unprecedented harm done to the hospital by its quasi director instilling fear and mistrust among the public about the hospital. They have communicated to Kahandaliyanage their severe protest about this act of violation of the law, medical ethics and the Hospital Act by Susitha Senaratne. However, even the chairman, Kahandaliyanage has not been able to contact Susitha Senaratne during work hours. A written protest calling for disciplinary action about the quasi director’s conduct, singed by all categories of staff has been submitted to the Chairman SJGH.
