According to Mirror, the woman in a state of shock posted online about the malpractice and discussed the matter with her relatives as well.
‘Some days ago I found an ultrasound scan on Facebook, it rang a bell, and I compared it with the ultrasound of my daughter. In that moment, Doctor Eduardo Oliva was attending me, in Constitucion, in the central Chilean region of Maule. They are the same, the same details, everything, the other baby was dated six years ago and my daughter is one year and 10 months old,’ she added.

President of the Doctors College, Izkia Siches regarded the case very serious if it is confirmed.
