A Chicago woman has filed a medical malpractice lawsuit seeking $2 million in damages after she claims a doctor sterilized her without her consent.
Nada Dollah’s medical attorney has filed the suit against the hospital, Dr. Nizar F. Olabi and Women’s Health Physicians S.C. of Aurora. According to her claims, Ms. Dollah underwent a cesarean section for the birth of her daughter in May 2008 when the doctor overseeing the procedure also performed a bitubal ligation.
The unauthorized procedure left Dollah sterilized. She alleges that at no point did she give her consent or authorize the operation and she deserves to be compensated.
The hospital does not comment on pending medical malpractice litigation.
