Well it’s really a long time since I took some time off from my busy schedule to write something on my blog. Well the real problem was that nothing that really matters me came up in these recent days. But there was some news I heard yesterday which got my grey cells working overtime and I badly wanted to pen in a few word on this serious matter, and what’s better is that today is the perfect day to comment on the topic since its “World Doctor’s Day.”
Well recently there were lots of thefts happening in the city and during one of such heist did they happen to bump a poor night watchman who single handedly tried to fend off their intentions. So they had no chance but to murder this Nepali Gurkha. The people of the society did a favor of getting him admitted to one of the best multi-specialty hospitals dotting the city skylines.
Since this fellow is financially backward and is survived by his wife and two children and a brother who works as a waiter in one of the restaurants could ill afford the cost of being treated in such a hospital. The Gurkha died after being hospitalized for 2 days but since the relatives of this fellow couldn’t afford to clear up the inflated bills generated by the hospital, one of the senior surgeons came up with a brilliant offer. He stated that since in lieu of the bills the person’s kidneys belong to the hospital! Ever heard of daylight robbery by doctors!!!
It was very shocking to hear to such things from well earned doctors and multi-specialty hospitals that have the clique clients who are mostly foreigners with lots of hard dollars to spend around. The doctor and the hospital must have made a neat fortune, and who knows how many other patients have meet with the same fate. Whatever happened to the universal brotherhood and the doctor’s oath which they take while entering the medical institutions. Money always overcomes their oath and desire to serve people!
Disgusting to learn what well educated people would do to earn more and lead a life of leisure and luxury, at the cost of their own not so better off brothers! The only thing really happening is that the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer beyond their wildest imaginations. Really pathetic to think where the human growth is leading too leaving behind godly virtues!
And here I’m listening to people sharing their experiences with doctors to the local radio jockey. They forget that they were lucky to have good experiences whereas lots of people have really been rubbed the wrong way by misguiding physicians and quacks.
Hope everyone has the best experience and not fall trap to wicked quacks and money-minded, greedy and inexperienced medical professionals.
