Feel like taking a vacation....May 23

I feel like taking a vacation......

When I first started operating....I thought if I were to operate throughout my life, life would feel like an endless holiday.... I really do love to operate!!!

But as a practicing surgeon....there are so many other things that make up your professional life and many of these things are uncalled for and unpleasant and that is what makes it so much dull and monotonous!!!

Practice in Bombay seems to have gone to dogs and with the general practitioners (most of them being imbecile....some of them having very funny degrees as well) referring you most of your patients and expecting a monetary share out of the referrals....

Makes you think whether all this education was really worthwhile???

They have come to a point where they will try to order a consultant around and try to advise them..........SOBs.....

And then there are other surgeons who do nothing but bitch about their fellow colleagues and then some whose knowledge in their subject is so inadequate that you sometimes wonder who passed them.....

Result.....a skeptical patient who thinks....you want to rob him/her of his/her money....and is always reluctant to believe you.....

Makes you want to really really take a break......
