The best-planned decision in my life was to become a doctor. It’s the thing I always wanted to be.It’s also something that inspires me every day.
Being a Doctor is what inspires me every day!

Being a doctor is often a mixed blessing.But which profession isn’t?
It’s the easiest way to help more people on a single day than most do .It’s also an amazing way to learn about human nature.
My natural sense of severe curiosity helps in my journey of finding out the mystery (called disease), from clues (a.k.a symptoms).
What would I be if I wasn’t a doctor?
I have no clue?
Did I tell you I married a doctor too?
That was totally unplanned but started the most amazing journey I could ever hope for.
Blogchatter asked me a question for Doctor’s Day.This is what I said
As a community the doctors are an interesting bunch .We love supporting and helping each other.Even random strangers in the medical professio often refuse compensation from colleagues.
During this Pandemic I learned a few things about being a doctor.
It’s okay to be scared.
It’s okay to not know what’s happening with the world.
It’s okay to feel tired and just do your own thing.
It’s okay to just be .
This too shall pass.
Sometimes do no harm ,is misunderstood.
Live your life,its the only one you have right now.
Dont skip those lectures in college,you will regret.
Anybody who says being a doctor is like any other profession is kidding ,ignore them.Ignoring haters could take up a lot of your head space,so avoid even seeing them.
Life is good and you became doctor for a reason,celebrate it .
Stay Fearless my Doctor friends.Happy Doctors Day .You are all amazing Avengers !
Doctors Day in India is special.I am wished by friends,family,patients,students and associates. Today the honorable Prime Minister too wished the Doctors and talked about studying the effect of Yoga amongst other things.Yoga has always been a friend,but honestly I never studied it.Maybe it’s time I “studied” it from A,B,C.Next year on Doctors Day ,I will tell you what I learn about yoga in 2021.Happy Doctors Day to all the Doctors in India.
Its a very old code of honour that prevents a doctor from charging for his/her services to other physicians. I would know, my dad was a doctor. 🙂
Happy Doctor’s Day! As a nurse these past 40 years, I’ve gotten to know many doctors. Some are my best friends. Thanks for all you do!!
