Unlicensed doctors arrested in HCM City Ten Chinese "doctors", who were working illegally in Vietnam, tried to flee when HCM City police visited the Apollo Clinic.    Surprise inspection at Apollo Clinic Inspectors from the HCM City Department of Health and the municipal Immigration Office carried out a surprise check on the Apollo clinic on Nguyen Cu Trinh Street on August 29. The medical practitioners tried to flee as soon as they found out that the inspection team had arrived. However two were caught. The clinic's owner, Vong Vien Hai, claimed that they only had two professionally licensed doctors, but eight others were found hiding in the building. None of them had medical licenses.    Unlicensed doctors detained The clinic also employed eight Vietnamese doctors, none of whom were present during the inspection. During the investigation, authorities confiscated a number of documents along with pharmaceuticals. A patient who was there when the incident occurred said, "I came to this clinic because of their advertisements, but in order to get treatment here we need an interpreter to speak to the Chinese doctors. Even though I've paid VND10 million, I still haven't received any proper diagnosis or even an invoice."    Pharmaceuticals taken as evidence On their website, the clinic claims to be able to provide all kinds of medical services including obstetrics and gynecology, internal medicine and several types of surgery. 10 unlicensed doctors were detained pending the investigation by the Department of Health.
