Quite relatable many a times when many a times you have intense urge to teach some civic sense but end up staying quiet. How to morally behave in public must be compulsorily taught at schools & reinforced on day to day basis by parents on how to behave like responsible citizens.
Passenger next to my seat spent the whole 8 hour train journey eating and throwing all the leftovers under the seat. Dustbin was right outside. Later, when everyone was trying to sleep, he started playing videos loudly.
Wanted to teach him a lesson in civic sense, but I stopped myself because getting home safely is more important than teaching a random stranger morality. I have a family, goals, and plans for the future. You need to be practical. You can't change the whole country. If you confront these people, they won't learn or acknowledge their mistake. Instead, they'll start a fight and can turn violent.
Mumbai local train incident is one example. Man asked someone to close the door because of the rain and ended up losing his life to a person carrying a knife.
Reality is, civic sense can only be taught where people are willing to listen, in a moral society. Smartest choice is to stay invisible, earn more and build a life where you move up the economic ladder so you and your family can have safer spaces to avoid such people.

India's super-specialist doctors, MS and MD and DNB holders who cleared one of the most brutal exams in the country, are sitting at home. Unemployed. With no idea when their training begins.
NEET SS 2025 results came in January. Round 1 counselling finished. Round 2 was scheduled for April 7. On April 24, MCC froze choice filling "until further orders." And that's where thousands of careers have been stuck ever since.
The reason? 151 vacant DM/MCh seats in Tamil Nadu. The Supreme Court directed Tamil Nadu to inform DGHS about these unfilled seats. MCC wrote to the state asking for them to be reverted so counselling could resume. No response. Even a personal letter from the MCC Chairman to the Principal Secretary of Health in Tamil Nadu. Still nothing.
Round 2 has been pushed from April 7 to May 4, then to July 28. It is June 8th today. No date in sight. The academic session that was supposed to begin April 10 has not started.
Candidates who are currently unemployed are facing real financial strain. Schedules disrupted, career progression derailed. These are people who spent the better part of a decade studying. Future cardiologists, neurosurgeons, oncologists. Just waiting.
And it is not only about them. Every delay deepens the shortage in Cardiology, Critical Care, Neurology, Neonatology, Oncology. Departments that are already critically short on specialists. Patients are on the other side of this mess too.
Ask who is responsible and responsibility vanishes. NTA, NMC, NBE, MCC, each one points to the other. Legal constraints. Technical issues. The other agency. Students get a blame game and a generic notice telling them to check the website.
The solution is not complicated. Isolate the 151 disputed seats, resume counselling for everything else, give a real timeline. The machinery to do this exists. It is just not being used.
India puts its doctors through years of sacrifice and asks them to keep going. The least the system owes them is a straight answer.

As you move up the career ladder especially in medical fraternity, what keeps you grounded is the wisdom out of the years of experience rather than the knowledge. Being good to people around definitely helps in long run.....
Medicine humbles everyone. The senior who terrorized you in MBBS is your co-PG today. The junior you ignored is your senior tomorrow. The patient you dismissed teaches you the most. Be good early, the system has a long memory and a longer queue. Be good, Do good.

In life so overdependent on apps competing for discounts, we are missing out on humans around us. Everyone should introspect where we as a society are heading.....Think beyond transactions.
You cancel a cab or a food order just because another app is offering it โน10 cheaper.
You think you are being smart with your money, but you are actually building a poverty mindset.
A single breakfast with my dad years ago completely changed how I view money. ๐๐ป
There are thousands of incredible physicians caring for patients quietly in remote corners of the world, without making it to the author list of medical journals! You won't see them at conferences either, but each one deserves our respect. Each one matters ๐๐ฝ

32 Years in Medicine: Lessons Beyond Guidelines
I saw my first OPD patient on 1st Feb 1994, during internship. This is my 33rd year as a doctor.
Over the years, I have followed the guidelines laid down by regulatory bodies. But some of the most valuable lessons in patient care are not written in any manual. They are learned, observed, and practiced daily.
Sharing a few principles that have consistently improved my doctorโpatient interactions, especially for younger colleagues:
1. Respect time.
Keeping appointments on schedule builds trust. If delayed, inform early. If delay is due to an emergency, explain honestly.
2. Start with a smile.
Patients often walk in anxious. A warm greeting can ease half their stress.
3. Speak their language.
Even a few words in the patientโs language can instantly build rapport.
4. Listen; truly listen.
A missed detail in history can lead to a missed diagnosis. Good listening is good medicine.
5. Be fully present and avoid distractions. The patient in front of you deserves your complete attention.
6. Be fair.
If a patient has come to the wrong specialty, guide them appropriately and consider refunding the fee.
7. Know your limits.
If someone else can offer better expertise, donโt hesitate to suggest a second opinion.
8. Respect colleagues.
When a patient comes to you for second opinion and you find that prior treatment was appropriate, say so. There is no need to undermine another doctor.
9. Think from the patientโs perspective.
If they have traveled far to consult you, help them find care closer to home or consider teleconsultation when feasible.
10. Communicate clearly.
Explain diagnosis, treatment options, duration of treatment, possible side effects of medications, and follow-up plans in simple terms.
11. Promote healthy living.
Never miss the chance to reinforce lifestyle measures. Healthy diet, exercise, and sleep matter more than most prescriptions.
Medicine is both a science and an art. Guidelines teach us the science. These small, human touches define the art.
To the younger doctors:
Your knowledge will earn respect, but your empathy will earn trust.

After Senior Residency in Rheumatologyโฆ went on to pursue a DM in Nephrology.
But somewhere along the way, I realizedโmy love for Rheumatology didnโt fadeโฆ it only grew stronger.
Some passions donโt compete. They deepen. #Medicine#Rheumatology#Nephrology
Every year
20 Lakh give NEET UG to escape saturated engineer market
2 Lakh give NEET PG to escape saturated MBBS market
20K give NEET SS to escape saturated PG market
2K plan fellowship to escape saturated SS market
#MedTwitter#MBBS
Whenever a student begins NEET-UG coaching, the first lecture should not be physics or biology,it should be about the reality of MBBS life. Students should be told honestly what medical education demands, 1/7

๐งต The "Acidity Pill" Trap: A Silent Health Crisis?
That daily antacid you pop for "gas" or heartburn might be doing more than just stopping the burn. As a neurologist, I see the long-term fallout of over-the-counter (OTC) drug misuse every day.
Let's talk about the hidden risks of PPIs (Omeprazole, Pantoprazole, etc.). ๐
@DstDhananjay That's a very great approach to help. I wish you a great residency and learning experience. Keep helping people, you will be blessed incredibly.
Quite practical approach to healthy living.
Preventive steps for a healthy lifestyle is the future rather than aggressively working on curative aspects.
The 9-1 Rule promotes daily health habits:
9: 9,000 steps - E.g., walk during lunch breaks or after dinner.
8: 8 glasses of water - E.g., drink one upon waking, with meals.
7: 7 hours sleep - E.g., set a 10 PM bedtime for 5 AM wake-up.
6: 6 min meditation - E.g., deep breathing app session morning.
5: 5 servings fruits/veggies - E.g., apple snack, salad lunch.
4: 4 rest breaks - E.g., 5-min stretches every 2 work hours.
3: 3 healthy meals - E.g., balanced breakfast, lunch, dinner.
2: 2-hr gap dinner to bed - E.g., eat by 8 PM, sleep at 10 PM.
1: 1 physical activity - E.g., daily yoga or jogging.
Definitely this is futuristic. Low cost models clubbed with A I recognition of veins can be revolutionary step indeed replacing phlebotomists across high volume centres. Future is bright. โจ
Repeated needle pricks for drawing blood for tests may become a thing of the past.
Aletta is a robot that makes drawing blood completely automated.
Alettaยฎ Autonomous Robotic Phlebotomy Deviceโข is not yet approved by the FDA.
So heartening to see a grassroot level worker rising up to the world's biggest political party president. What a historic rise. Proud moment for every Bihari. Hopefully his policies and election manifestos improve day to day lives of every Indian. ๐
PM Modi walked with Nitin Nabin to his chamber...
Nitin Nabin alone sat on the chair....
PM Modi himself pulled the chair for him...
All other senior leaders remained standing next to the PM....
This is BJPโRSS culture.....
