Transcript

So just listen to this and then we come back. Mr Carrims doctor says uh such an uh assessment that uh the doctor uses uh the word interpositioning. So if another doctor uh assesses him and assesses him, uh it will be deleterious too. Uh the treatment that Mr Carrim is undergoing. So you need to tell me that Mr Carrim's doctor says that if another independent doctor comes and assesses him, it's going to be a whole lot of instructions. Thank you. Who are you trying to fool, bro? Thank you.
