Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng, founder of the National Cardiothoracic Centre at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, has issued a strong rebuttal to allegations made by veteran lawyer Kwabla Dogbe Senanu regarding the late former Deputy Minister of Finance, Victor Selormey.
In a detailed statement copied to MyNewsGh.com, Prof. Frimpong-Boateng dismissed Senanu’s claims as false and defamatory, demanding an immediate retraction.
In an Instagram post dated February 17, 2025, Lawyer Senanu accused Prof. Frimpong-Boateng of blocking medical treatment for the late Victor Selormey—a claim the renowned heart surgeon has categorically denied.
Frimpong-Boateng criticized Senanu for breaching legal ethics by disclosing private medical details for political gain.

He further expressed dismay at Senanu’s comments, emphasizing that he would not violate doctor-patient confidentiality by disclosing details about Selormey’s ailment, despite the falsehoods being circulated.
