The banter between actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu and The Liver Doc seems to have come to an end as The Liver Doc has apologized to the actress and slammed her doctors and also called them businessmen whose practices have been doubted by health boards.
Earlier in a social media post, Samantha recommended the use of hydrogen peroxide nebulisation which didn’t go well with The Liver Doc who not only called Samantha a “Health illiterate” but also said that a person like her should be thrown behind the bars for endangering the health of her million of followers.
In response, Samantha asked The Liver Doc to be a little polite and kind. In her post, she wrote, “It would have been kind and compassionate of him had he not being so proactive with his words. Especially the bit where he suggests I should be thrown in prison. Nevermind. I suppose it goes with the territory of being a celebrity. I posted as someone who needs medical treatment and not as a celebrity.”
Now, The Liver Doc has apologized to Samantha and slammed her doctors – Dr. Mitra Basu Chillar and Dr. Jockers.
In his long post, The Liver Doc also wrote, “I understand and empathize with Samantha’s health condition and I wish her the very best. I apologize if she felt uneasy or bad the way the message was conveyed. That was unintentional. My aim was her to leave behind medical misinformation peddling ‘doctors’ who are using her vulnerability, and catering to her anecdotal experiences, for their gain. I sincerely suggest that patients with chronic illnesses please continue with evidence-based medical practices to remain inside a safety net and sanctuary.”

Well, it is better to consult a qualified medical doctor if you are facing any issue and try to avoid what influencers or actors are recommending, what do you say?
