💯 Probably why my parents gave me a rather generic name 'Karthik' . Every class has a couple of Karthiks 😃

While most students know medicine is tough, they may not realise exactly how tough it is - until they join. Being a class topper would have made them feel good - but they have never been in a class full of class toppers. MBBS is like an uphill rat race - with a few bandicoots…

While I feel sorry for these students, I wonder how much of this mental health tsunami is due to

- poor expectation management in internship
- toxicity / bullying
- soft parenting
- medicalisation of everyday stress
- absent support system

Medicine is hard. The students…

Disengagement is not a tough line. Indifference to each other is the only achievable goal for both India and Pakistan- at least for the foreseeable future. While relationships between people on both sides can work at individual level, the differences at national level are too…

Interesting deal 😃

Let's forget the Ayushman Yojana.

Suppose I am a patient. I tie up with a hospital, that provides supervised surgical training to foreign doctors who don't get many surgeries in their home country. I am willing to be operated by a foreigner , who is…

Hi,

So focus on expectations first. Residency and…

Heart warming ♥️

Sometimes trying to prove you are better is an insult

Going on a blocking spree this weekend 😄

I understand why gender, gender identity or preferred pronouns might be asked (DEI, ESG et al). Why on earth would the employer need to know sexual orientation ?

American musician Frank Zappa once said “Politics is just the entertainment division of the military industrial complex”. If we agree with this , the least we can expect from a member of the entertainment division(aka politician) is well.. entertainment.

Which politician do…

Company : what qualification do you have ?

Candidate: lol First Job Pakki 😂 you have to train me and give me one lakh. Worry about your own qualification bro.

Found this in the wild ... What do you guys think ?

I happen to be in the minority 😌
