I am sure that if Mr Aamir Khan is asked to write on a bond paper that whenever he fells ill, he will take only generics and that he will be treated with minimal investigations, he will not be doing this. Thats the situaton. Nobody will do it but everybody will expect the doctors to do so.

Anyways, its really tough to self regulate the practice of medicine. Its not really rocket science to understand the fact that not all the patients can be treated in similar way. Individualisation of treatment is what is advocated everywhere. Every case is treated according to its own merit. Now, there are many cases where a definite guideline has to be followed. They mostly are in emegency medicine where ascertaining the cause is not important but stabilising a patient takes priority. In those conditions, like cardiac arrest, there are prescribed regimen that are followed almost everywhere. But, as soon as the patient gets stabilised, each case can be treated in many ways depending upon two individuals. First, the one being treated i.e. the patient and second, the one treating i.e the doctor. This is what is called individualisation. No two minds are the same, neither are two bodies. So, how can one expect two doctors (two minds) having a same opinion about the same patient. Neither can you expect a doctor to have same opinion on two patients (two bodies) having similar problems.<br />Yes, there must be some regularisation in this profession but its not that simple to apply. Anyways, anyone is free to move to litigation if he thinks he has been cheated in some way by a doctor. After such a complaint, a committte is formed of the eminent people of this profession to look into it and then only a decision on negligence is taken and then proper action is taken that includes deregistration i.e. the professional death sentence.Aashuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01903987800218010521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325275242444085904.post-36233882264693920222012-05-29T19:50:36.792+05:302012-05-29T19:50:36.792+05:30one thing i felt he left which he should have ment...one thing i felt he left which he should have mentioned ,so that people..."patients" as such could have realized their mistakes, so that together doctor and patients could work for betterment of health facilities was ATTITUDE OF PATIENTS...what i have seen is that if you prescribe only essential medicines or only essential tests or cheaper drugs or cheaper tests(as the pathologist in the show said)..then patients themselves dont like it or dont trust u or your treatment......just because it does not satisfy them.....and that,s just because other doctors are prescibing more...sometimes "more"is just what they want....if patients correct this attitude then it can be a lot helpfulnidhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07083275883078406468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325275242444085904.post-67432736175410828722012-05-29T19:40:13.960+05:302012-05-29T19:40:13.960+05:30nice approach...i totally agree that we,the upcomi...nice approach...i totally agree that we,the upcoming doctors should first regularize ourselves and think more about serving humanity than earning money...but i think this is a fact that these days less than fifty percent of us actually do care about..as far as what i have felt.you are well familiar with my subject "pathology" and what is the scene behind it as has already been discussed in the programme...though my idea behind choosing this subject was different but i had also thought of a clean private practice...but i am afraid to say no one has yet supported me in this...i was told by my friends ,seniors as well as family as well as other doctors not to enter it because u can never earn without pacifying other doctors by division of the fees...i am strong headed but sometimes even i am forced to think so...so what can u expect of betterment in this society if the environment around us is this....where the main aim of becoming doctor is to earn money....many times not by noble ways..it is kind of in the roots...you have talked about private colleges giving fees to procure doctors for recognition by mci...i tell you when i had joined physiology the senior doctors whom i talked and even the teachers of our college said its good and be satisfied with it because these days teachers in these fields are hard to find and in times of need like during mci inspection private colleges like katihar would offer about 1 lac per day for being their tutors during inspection plus other facilities!!!!!!!so"physiology" is good!!!!!!see .....this is the scene..even our elders support this just for sake of MONEY....since i have encountered this all myself so i liked that episode as i am seeing on facebook has created a lot of hatred among doctors for aamir...but i also agree there are also many who are "non commercial" as has also been accepted by aamir khannidhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07083275883078406468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325275242444085904.post-72383860150916528392012-05-28T13:01:41.542+05:302012-05-28T13:01:41.542+05:30I watched only one section of the show in which he...I watched only one section of the show in which he was comparing the cancellation of licenses in UK as compared to in India. You will agree that there is a problem there - that there is no mechanism to hold doctors accountable for their advice and actions. May be not criminal accountability but some sort of internal self-regulation of the medical community itself should be there. In India, I doubt if even big reputed hospitals have defined guidelines, standard procedures & ethical practices, forget about private practitioners..Alokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12947383354732747209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325275242444085904.post-2415683688108337172012-05-28T11:57:39.335+05:302012-05-28T11:57:39.335+05:30brilliant anshuman.... u have indepth knowledge of...brilliant anshuman.... u have indepth knowledge of the evil practices prevalent in society as well as u have the gud capability to find out the root cause of an evil..... u r absolutely r8 in regard of education mafias.... study of medical course with heavy donations and other corrupt practices have disturbed the whole process....<br />great effort... love u and your blogs .

The point is that if there is a doctor who demands a bribe or a cut, then there is atleast one person who provides him with these. Both of them should be equally blamed. Maybe, thats where the episode failed slightly!Aashuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01903987800218010521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325275242444085904.post-44421644520478124902012-05-28T01:20:29.458+05:302012-05-28T01:20:29.458+05:30This episode had a categorical viewpoint maligning...This episode had a categorical viewpoint maligning the doctors who are the forerunners of this noble profession. I agree with you that it should have been presented with a more liberal stand. A majority of well learned doctors are contributing a lot without much commercialisation and with utmost dedication. The govt. should check the blatant misuse and corruption associated with hidden aspects of the healthcare sector such as working of pharma giants which is instrumental in originating the first vice in this vicious chain reaction.Anamayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17799205438589582526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325275242444085904.post-41039924957799942072012-05-27T23:57:02.198+05:302012-05-27T23:57:02.198+05:30Thanks for the valuable opinion. Totally agree to ...Thanks for the valuable opinion. Totally agree to you on the issue of overuse rather abuse of antibiotics in today's practice. To me, but, it is a different issue. Where the issues raised in the show were mostly about the criminal offences of the doctors, the abuse of antibiotics should not fall in that same category. To me, it is more of either a wrong use of a right knowledge or a wrong knowledge altogether. Many a times you are tempted to use an antibiotic owing to the high incidence of infections in our society caused due to the poor living conditions. The major problem is the compliance on the part of the patients. If they are able to take properly the full course, problems like the rise of drug resistance will not be a larger one. The affordability of the sensitivity tests is also one problem faced by doctors for which they tend to use empirical drug therapy. Anyways, the overuse of antibiotics should must be avoided at any cost.<br />The unrecognized private hospitals or even the recognized ones are the ones that are the most problematic. All the problems raised in the show are a result of the huge flow of money in the health sector and the cheif perpetrators are these private hospitals. If a govt hospital can provide appendectomy in a thousand buck then how come it costs fifty grand at a big private hospital of the metros. This must be taken care of. Health sector is one of the most important sectors that need an immediate govt regulation.<br />Regarding more posts to follow this up, will surely try to pull out from my own experiences time to time and put it up here.
