D′Souza vs Mohd Ishfaq (3541 of 2002) dated 17.02.2009,’ Justice Markandey Katzu and G S Singhvi enlisted the precautions which doctors/hospitals/nursing homes should take: “54(c): A doctor should not merely go by the version of the patient regarding his symptoms, but should also make his own analysis including tests and investigations where necessary.”
