Today I called one of my close surgeons to consult a patient. He gave an appointment. I thought he will take care of rest of the situation. I usually don't disturb my colleagues unnecessarily because I don't want anyone to disturb me because I respect every human, especially poor innocent ones. After 3 hours i received a call from the patient's attender, who was a bit irritated. He told that his mother was shown to some other doctor. I enquired, what happened?
He burst out in anger saying that my friend surgeon didn't show any decency to them, advised some tests and left without saying a word. I was surprised and just called my friend to know what happened. He said he is now in another place miles away in another hospital. Without any guilt he said junior doctor will inform them. I really felt bad and understood why they opt for another doctor. What you think as a specialist we are…
