Words of wisdom

 A good clinician should better listen patiently to the presenting complaints and history of the patients and then go for thorough clinical examination and  should make first a clinical and provisional diagnosis than giving him  a list of unnecessary test which at times may deviate his diagnosis and bring unnecessary financial and physical troubles to the poor patients .
                                                                                                              The patient who soever he may be are the poorest and helpless creatures and for then the treating doctor is the only help and a real  god on earth .
                 A good doctor should prescribe only the desired test only to confirm his provisional diagnosis and prescribe only the desired drugs which must be affective ,safe and economical too .
                  
Everybody is born on earth with only one motive to earn more and more money even by wrong and illegal means . It is only a real doctor who are born only to serve his patients.
 
Please don't be a commoner , a professional. Be a real doctor ,a real god on earth . It is certain that you will not be given another chance to be a doctor in your next birth,and it is more than certain that you will take nothing with you when your heart stops for ever then why to cry after excess money .
