Potty-mouthed Miami doctor finally gets fired after she was filmed drunkenly attacking Uber driver while trashing his car
Quote:
A doctor has been fired from a Miami hospital three months after a video surfaced on YouTube showing her hitting and screaming profanities at an Uber driver.
Jackson Health System officials released a statement Friday saying that fourth-year neurology resident Anjali Ramkissoon would be terminated.
She's been on administrative leave since the video went public in January, according to the Miami Herald.
'She is entitled to an appeal process,' the two-sentence statement reads.

Ramkissoon, who was a fourth-year neurology resident, reportedly got into an Uber without a reservation back in January. When the driver asked her to leave, she became angry and belligerent.
The video shows her punching and kicking the man, who eventually walks away, and then getting into the passenger seat of the vehicle and throwing his mail, cell phone, electronics and other devices and possessions out into the street.
At one point she also yells at him; 'Get the f*** in the car, you piece of f***ing disgusting s***.'
Repercussions: Jackson Health System have now fired her following her administrative leave

The video footage was taken by Juan Cinco, who had ordered the car to take him home from the Mary Brickell Village in Miami, Florida, on Sunday night. He later uploaded the clip to YouTube.
Information posted with the clip explains Ramkissoon, who was dressed in tight white shorts and a red top, came 'out of nowhere' and climbed into the backseat of the Uber.
When she refused to get out, Mr Cinco and his friend told the driver to cancel their ride and offered to book another ride home.
He said the driver pretended to phone the police, asking them to remove the woman from his car, which prompted Ramkissoon to reach into the front seat, grab his keys and start to walk away.
This was the point at which Cinco started filming, he said.
