Gauteng Health MEC Qedani Mahlangu will meet managers from the Charlotte Maxeke Hospital on Monday to discuss the amputation of a two-year-old girl’s lower legs.

Thembisa Kometsi was admitted to the Far East Rand Hospital in September after burning her hands but she was transferred to Charlotte Maxeke because her wounds were not healing.

Doctors there put drips in her feet and later told her parents she had gangrene in both her legs, which were eventually amputated just below the knees.

The DA’s Jack Bloom said it was up to the MEC to get to the bottom of the case and others of a similar nature.

“There is a health complaints hotline that the new MEC has put in and I hope people test it to see if it is any good,” Bloom said.
