Those who become doctors are reluctant to go to villages to help the poor people. So everyone try to organize small clinic or building hospitals thinking that they can make good money. But once they don’t get rush to their hospitals they use new tactics.
If anyone gets into hospital for treatment suppose he/she suffer from vomiting the patient is put on bed and unnecessarily saline, injection and tablets given and make the patient to stay 3-4 days without any necessity.
As far as the patient concerned as to pocket out 3000- 4000 in addition they prescribe
Tablets for 10 days so the patient buys in the pharmacy attached to the hospital. Sometime if a patient is brought to the hospital in a bad condition the doctors know that the patient already died before getting admitted to the hospital. Making use of the innocence of the people the doctors pretend as they give treatment and finally the doctor declares the patient was dead. The relatives have to pay heavy sum before taking the dead body home.
A honored profession because of money gets reprimanded.

Some Doctors at the begining it self join the medical colleges with money in mind. They are not coming in to this profession with service mind. Their aim is to earn money only to earn money. Such doctors will do like this.
Those who come with service mind into this profession their treatment will be definitely different. They are not money minded.

I agree with you, but I will like to put one point that now a days becoming a doctor is very expensive. One has to spend many lacks with hard work to become a good doctor, so after becoming a doctor people try to earn money to atleast get back what they have invested. Also as you correctly said that it is a noble profession, but then it is a profession and one performs this profession for his own livelyhood.
But it is true that now a days doctors are running more after money than curing their patients. Now a days not only doctors but in general all mankind is becoming very selfish and self entered. There are very few people who think about others and amongst them we can scarcely find some doctors.

Unfortunately what you are saying is true & day by day the number of such doctors is increasing.One cannot make out whether the Doctor is speaking the truth or just for money thay are doing this.I have a friend whose father had some problem in chest.He consulted the Doctor & Doctor said thay immediately you have to do opearation.or else he will die within 2-3 years.Now luckily he took another opinion & didn't go for the opearation which would have costed him a fortune.Now he is fine & healthy even after 15 years of this happening.The big Money has not only come in the profession of Doctor but everywhere.

Dear Suba
sure these things are there but not big in number
all people in profession are not same

just for welfare
so we should have both sides in front of us
Take care
