Belgian doctor writes 'Jewish' on nine-year-old patient's medical report
A Belgian radiologist wrote "Jewish" under the medical issues section of a patient's Emergency Department report. This was first revealed when a censored version of the letter circulated on social media on Sunday.
The radiologist, Dr. Qassim Arkawazy at AZ Zeno Campus Knokke-Heist hospital, filled out the report for the patient, who is nine years old and was experiencing "trauma pain in the left forearm."
Underneath the section "current problem," Arkawazy wrote "Pain in the left forearm, fell from the climbing structure to the ground; a man fell on top of her" and subsequently "Jewish (Israeli)."
