    Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu was in the news recently after she was called out by Dr. Cyriac Abby Philips, who is known as The Liver Doc, for spreading misinformation about the use of hydrogen peroxide nebulization.

    The Liver Doc had called Samantha “health illiterate” and even wrote that she should be put in prison for such misinformation.

    Samantha also wrote a long post slamming the document for the usage of his words, and she accepted the fact that she is no expert on it. She also asked the doctor to be 'polite'.

    She wrote, “It would have been kind and compassionate of him had he not been so proactive with his words. Especially the bit where he suggests I should be thrown in prison. Nevermind. I suppose it goes with the territory of being a celebrity. I posted as someone who needs medical treatment and not as a celebrity."


    Now The Liver Doc has also written a long post talking about the two doctors Samantha has talked about in her post and called them 'frauds' and 'businessmen.'. But during the course of the post, he also apologized to Samantha.

    In his post, The Liver Doc mentioned that he has over 10 years of experience in the medical field and said that Samantha’s doctors, Mitra Basu Chillar and Dr. Jockers, are not worth debating with. He also wrote about all the practices they were doing, some of which were not right and some that were not permissible.

    In one of the portions of his long post, The Liver Doc wrote, "I understand and empathize with Samantha's health condition, and I wish her the very best. I apologize if she felt uneasy or bad about the way the message was conveyed. That was unintentional. My aim was for her to leave behind medical misinformation, peddling "doctors" who are using her vulnerability and catering to her anecdotal experiences for their own gain. I sincerely suggest that patients with chronic illnesses please continue with evidence-based medical practices to remain inside a safety net and sanctuary."

    In his previous post, he had called out Samantha for promoting a medical practice which is not right. He had also called Samantha a serial offender.
