MetroFM afternoon drive host, Masechaba Ndlovu is allegedly in a dispute with a Johannesburg hospital.
This after her child was rushed to the hospital, Mediclinic Sandton due to a medical emergency two weeks ago.
According to Sunday World, Masechaba’s child was admitted to the hospital where an altercation between her and the staff there took place on the same evening.
Masechaba’s lawyer, Jonathan Small confirmed to the publication that the altercation had indeed taken place and that once the matter has been investigated, they will be making recommendations to the personality.
“Our client's minor child was rushed to Sandton Clinic recently for emergency medical treatment. The minor child was admitted to high care and was not in a particularly stable condition. Our client was obviously with her child at the point of admission into Sandton Clinic and remained there until late that evening, following a minor altercation with the hospital staff,” the lawyer said.

The publication has reported that Masechaba requested, and was granted, permission to stay overnight with her child.
This is not normal procedure and the staff member who granted the permission failed to relay the information to the staff members who took the next shift.
The staff on the new shift then forbade Masechaba from spending the night, which resulted in the altercation.
“Obviously, our client understands that there are certain protocols in operation at the facility, which are designed for safety and wellbeing of all high-care patients, but she was treated appallingly by the staff at the shift change and felt aggrieved because of their lack of courtesy and confrontational approach to the whole situation,” her lawyer said.
Masechaba is also allegedly upset at the fact that the media caught wind of the story the very next morning, which suggests that a staff member at the hospital must have leaked it to the media.
