Sebastian Kola-Bankole, 35, is in a medically induced coma after he was run down crossing the road while celebrating a friend's wedding in Las Vegas last week, Mirror UK reports.
The junior doctor, who lives in Camden, north London, is being treated at the Sunrise Hospital and Medical Centre in Las Vegas.
He has undergone emergency operations on his ears, arteries and spine, and is currently in a "critical but stable condition". But the doctor's family has been unable to find Dr Kola-Bankole's travel insurance documents, meaning they face having to fork out thousands for treatment..
