Omnicare Medical, which operates the Body By Design cosmetic clinic, has moved to court to challenge the decision by the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) to close the facility pending investigations.
They want the court to order KMPDC to stop disrupting or obstructing the daily operations of the facility.
The clinic has further distanced itself from the allegation that they performed the cosmetic surgery unprocedurally thereby causing the death of Lucy Wambui Kamau.
“There has been an increasing harassment from social media users who have the intention to unjustifiably cause or otherwise curtail the daily operations of the applicant and subsequently deny a source of livelihood to the employees of the facilty,” reads court papers.
Through lawyer Danstan Omari, the facility further argues that it has qualified doctors, medical officers and nurses specializing in cosmetic medical procedures and closes business daily at 4pm.
