Replacing Dr. Shane Sam Mathew, Indian dentist who died in fire last yearA little over four months since Dr. Shane Sam Mathew, an Indian Dentist died in a fire accident at the Ganta United Methodist Hospital on September 3, 2017, another Indian dentist has taken assignment at the hospital for a period of 10 months. Speaking to the Daily Observer via mobile phone, the outgoing administrator of the hospital, Mr. Patrick Mantor, said the new dentist, Dr. Thurgen Caszo, took assignment at the hospital about two weeks ago and is expected to be at the hospital for the next months with the possibility of an extension. “Dr Abi Thomas, President of the Christian Dental College and I have been in conversation, where he assured the hospital of more cooperation and he made it possible to send this dentist,” he said. The new incoming dentist, Dr. Caszo said even though he was upset about the sudden death of Dr. Mathew, he was not afraid or discouraged from coming to serve in Ganta. On September 3, 2017 the duplex that housed Dr. Mathew was gutted by fire mysteriously, burning down the apartments and left Dr. Mathew dead.
