1.What is your say on doctors without Borders and have u ever thought of in those lines.Who is the person who started this concept and i think it is a great one.
2.Will u ever plan to serve in a war zone as a doctor if the situation demands.
3.Have u ever encountered treating a patient who is HIV positive and what was your initial reaction for the first time.
4.What is that brought u to the musical shows inspite of your busy schedule.
5.In the US I feel the remuneration for doctors compared to other professions is far to lopsided ..do u agree? Inspite of the machines and inventions discoverd by enginears and scientists.
6.Nowdays the doctors are far too dependent on machines and tests unlike the previous generation of docs .... going by symptoms ...we land up paying hefty bills and are subjected to far too many tests. Why is this drift?
7.Anyways ...what is the meaning of the word DOCTOR and where is is it derived from.

i dont know much about this...but yes i have definitely heard abt it.. its a great concept..this is why we become doctors...to provide care to ppl around the world..and yes for doctors every patient is the same..irrespective of caste, color n religion..n i guess thatz what 'doctor without border's is all about...

kudos to the team who provide selfless health care! 😊

2.Will u ever plan to serve in a war zone as a doctor if the situation demands.

definitely..infact i wud love to! it will be a great honour for me actually..

3.Have u ever encountered treating a patient who is HIV positive and what was your initial reaction for the first time.

till date..no..because i have started my interhsip only 2 months back..but yeah i will get to interact definitely in the future...

4.What is that brought u to the musical shows inspite of your busy schedule.

'the love for music' 😊 i love it...

5.In the US I feel the remuneration for doctors compared to other professions is far to lopsided ..do u agree? Inspite of the machines and inventions discoverd by enginears and scientists.

u mean its on the higher side for docs? well to that i'll say..maybe its that way in US only..definitely not in India..doctors arent pain much here...n that too after so much of hard work... doctors actually start earning well when they reach 40 n all..n i feel..thats way too late

6.Nowdays the doctors are far too dependent on machines and tests unlike the previous generation of docs .... going by symptoms ...we land up paying hefty bills and are subjected to far too many tests. Why is this drift?

again i wud say that thats the case in US... here only in big hospitals n all..doctors advise so many tests because the patients can afford it..n if they can..then why not? the tests definitely help..we dont get much fun in prescribing them anyways...

but usually from what i have seen..doctors prescribe few tests only..n the expensive ones r only done when the diagnosis is becoming difficult.. infact we always ask the patient..especially if we know the patient cant afford it..we always ask..that will u able to afford..because these r really imp.. (so only the important ones are done)

and major part of india lives in villages..n ther...diagnosis is done based on symptoms only..only when the case is serious..they r refered to big hospitals 😊

7.Anyways ...what is the meaning of the word DOCTOR and where is is it derived from.

it comes from the latin word 'docere' which means 'to teach'!😊

thanks for ur questions... 😳 i had fun answering them!
