Bhagat is no cardiologist - BHPC

Joseph Makhema, chairman of the BHPC, says the professional body of medical practitioners took five years to make a public announcement about the credentials of Dr Kiran Bhagat because they had to complete their investigations.

"We have been involved in back-and-forth investigations that have unfortunately dragged for a long time. We had to consult even other countries where he practiced before and we have now made a decision after all that," he said.
