    Dr. Abraham ordered a test be run on my lungs at MMC with 'contrast' knowing I had lost a kidney to cancer. I got deathly sick from the contrast which affected my surviving kidney. Then when he received the test results, he didn't even read them. I was not even treated for the bacteria in my lungs. My lungs are permanently damaged now because of the time lapse as per my current pulmonologist. Dr. Abraham should not be allow to practice medicine and put his patience in permanent peril.
