" You're a good teacher Pradeep." This was told to me in 1982 at Lachung, high altitude of North Sikkim after he heard my class for the Gurkha paltan...a class on acute mountain sickness. This was told to me by Maj KPNS Chaudhary of 2/3 GR. Well, I never took him seriously then and my entire army life was spent in small military hospitals where there's not much scope of teaching post graduate students. But after my retirement, I could work in teaching hospitals where I could teach my post graduate students. And yes, I'm enjoying it.

Thanks to ISACON, I could deliver some of the very popular lectures at ISACON national scientific sessions. E veryday, I try to learn something new and definitely pay attention to the recent advances in Anaesthesiology. Hope to continue my passion for teaching Anaesthesiology till my last day.
