Around 12 noon today, a couple rushed into Medicine Casualty holding their 3-year-old. The child had fallen off a table; his wrist was visibly deformed, likely a clean break. He was crying inconsolably, surrounded by 4 or 5 frantic relatives.
"Doctor, treat my child fast!" they shouted.
I immediately assessed the situation. As a Medicine resident, I am neither an orthopedician nor a pediatrician. I knew that I was not in a position to manage this situation.
I calmly told them: "This is Medicine Casualty. Please turn left, the Orthopedic Casualty is right there. Since you have many people with you, have one person take the child there immediately while another goes to the counter for a ticket so the doctors can order X-rays and meds."
That’s when the shouting started.
"You good-for-nothing doctors! Can’t you see this is an emergency? Why do we need a ticket?"
My junior rushed over to help, only to be met with threats: "Treat him immediately or things will get bad for you." Then, the phones came out. Cameras were shoved in our faces. "Look at these doctors refusing to treat a child!"
Here is the context a 30-second viral video would miss:
1. I was directing them to the correct specialist only 3 minutes away.
2. Without a hospital ID/ticket, the Ortho team can't even log an X-ray request into the system.
3. Staying in Medicine Casualty was actually delaying the child's care.
To de-escalate, I eventually had to leave my own post unattended to personally escort them to the Ortho wing and explain the situation to the doctors there.
Hours later, after the child was stabilized, the family returned to apologize. I appreciate the apology, but the damage of those "recorded" moments lingers. This is the daily reality for doctors: being vilified for following the very protocols that ensure a patient gets the right treatment from the right specialist.
Before you share a "doctor refusing treatment" video, ask yourself: Are they refusing, or are they trying to get the patient to the help they actually need?

All year they vanish , not a call, not a message, not even the faintest concern for your existence.
But the moment results are announced, they appear like exam season astrologers:
Rank kya hai?
Score kitna aaya?
Qualified hua ya nahi?
Truth is, the only people who genuinely earn the right to ask such questions are the ones who paid for your education, shared your sleepless nights, and carried your struggles as their own.
The rest? They’re just spectators pretending to be stakeholders.
One might be doing way better in life : No you don’t have PG
One might be earning times more than you can imagine : No you don’t have PG
One might be happy in his life : No you don’t have PG
One might be fighting for the rights of PGs : how you can you don’t have PG
One might be aware of their issues better than they are themselves aware : No you can’t say you don’t have PG
This narrow mindset is the reason people are still roaming around in this rat race literally destroying their mental peace most of the times because they are being trained in this circus of life and trying to build career whole their life on it only and still has no vision outside PG but if someone has gone out of the box at early age their jealousy “No but you still don’t have PG”
I literally laugh reading such thought process .
If you're a devotee of Hanuman ji, don't question Him, because He's the greatest of protectors. Don't question yourself either; if you're His devotee, He'll protect you. Are you gold or clay? It doesn't matter to Him, He'll still protect you, for His nature is to give protection.
