A Miami neurologist whose profanity-laced rant at an Uber driver became a viral sensation has gotten her walking papers.
Jackson Health System officials released a statement Friday saying that fourth-year resident Anjali Ramkissoon, 30, would be terminated, the Miami Herald reported.
The hospital’s statement said she has a right to appeal her termination.
Sadly, probably true ... without the video.The video, shot in Miami’s Brickell area and posted to YouTube on Jan. 19, shows the apparently drunk, shorts-clad neurosurgeon trying to commandeer another Uber customer’s ride.
She is seen hitting the Uber driver in the face and screaming profanities and insults at him. After landing on the ground following a tussle in which she tried to knee the driver in the groin, she jumps up and climbs into the front seat of his car, demanding the driver “get the f–k in the car!”
When he instead calls the police, she remains in the front seat, throwing papers, scissors, an iPhone and other objects from the car, all the while shouting that the police will not believe that she had assaulted the driver because of her size.
Cue the waterworks.When she was confronted by police, she pleaded with them, tearfully claiming that she would lose her medical license if she were arrested.
First thought: For F#@K sake, why?The driver declined to press charges.
Second thought: Maybe he figured he wouldn't get any more justice than Caylee Anthony.
