The Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) has taken notice of a widely circulated video showing patients being filmed during surgery at Lahore’s Lady Willingdon Hospital, raising serious concerns about patient dignity and confidentiality. The footage, allegedly recorded inside an operating theatre, appeared to show medical staff engaging in unprofessional conduct while filming procedures without consent. In response, the Punjab government suspended multiple staff members, including senior doctors and nurses. PMDC has issued notices to those involved, emphasizing that recording patients in such settings constitutes a serious breach of medical ethics and patient rights. Meanwhile, the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) has reinforced a strict ban on photography and videography within hospital premises without official approval, underscoring the need to uphold professional standards and protect patient privacy.
