A man who hit a general practitioner in the Vienne in the face, inflicting a cerebral hematoma, was sentenced to six months in prison.
The man who hit a general practitioner in a medical center in Vienne was brought to court immediately and was sentenced to six months in prison by the Poitiers court.
The facts took place in a cabinet in Châtellerault, where a couple had an appointment to have their baby examined. Having arrived an hour late, a doctor from the medical center allegedly refused to receive the two people and their baby immediately and took them back to the waiting room.
Want “everything, right now”
After a verbal altercation between the woman and the doctor, another practitioner, Dr. Joyeux, would have intervened and invited the couple to leave, according to testimonies cited at the hearing in the criminal court. The husband, a 26-year-old man who had gone out to smoke a cigarette, reportedly returned at that time.
At the bar of the court, he says to have been alerted by cries of his companion, and to have seen a woman “pushing (his) wife with the baby in the arms”. He immediately slapped his victim hard, whose head hit a chair, then the ground, where she remained unconscious for a few minutes. The doctor was rushed to the emergency room with a brain hematoma, but her condition is now stable.
The accusation had required six months firm against the father, known to justice. She denounced the “hysterical” behavior of people who want “everything, now”. The doctor’s office where the assault took place was closed until November 2
This attack shocked the medical world in the department, where a “dead health” day is scheduled for November 22, organized by medical unions.
