The Heroes of the Health
Journal Title: Healthline - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
A teacher is like a mother in certain aspects. Both love their children / students. They are more sympathetic to the weaker ones. This soft corner is only to bring equality amongst them. They wish that the good quality of these apparently weaker children is better understood and they are motivated for the best results in their life. A situation is often seen that a highly educated son moves abroad to earn name and fame leaving parents in India. The parents may receive financial help from this brilliant son but the other son who is not so progressive, may actually take them to the doctor and do all that is required to be done to these old parents. Both children are very good but the villagers may well receive the NRI one with a lot of enthusiasm in his occasional winter visit.Medical education is a replica of this story. As a medical teacher, I am proud of all whom I taught but I extend my sincere appreciation for the less recognized ones through this article.Many medicos have good social insights. They talk and debate on underdevelopment, malnutrition and poverty also with significant emotional involvement and a touch of nationalism. They actually wanted to contribute for their motherland. They are now best doctors. They have different careers and these reflect their scope of working for that cause.
