Prashanth,
A very inspiring article. Great work from all of you! Gives me a lot of happiness to know that I had the chance in life to be your classmate!

Is there any way, a non-doctor can help a mission? I am surely interested in doing my bit for a cause that you have undertaken. Please let me know, how I can be of help.

Thanks and good luck!

Cheers!
Padma

Thanks Ashwin for your comments. I am going to share the link to the post with Dr. Dani and I hope he derives encouragement from the kind comments of so many. Seeing people like Dani within the system is also inspiring for some of us who are trying to help improve health services of the Government.

Thank you for bringing the ‘true picture’ as ascertained by Dr Dani to light. To know one’s faults or shortcomings will give opportunities to improve though the improvements take time and effort and not be as much as we want them to be.

Please tell Dr Dani that his story inspires others by showing that something constructive can be done in one’s circumstances no matter how hopeless it may seem.

Excellent post! Thanks for an inspiring blog. Saw about this post on FB but didn’t read it until Vinay Sreenivasa pinged. Incidentally I am from Gubbi and live here. Reading your post, I realize I have to meet Dr. Dani.

Thanks for the article NS,

The greatest positive factor in the present day health sysem is people like Dr Dani and you.
Doctors who are interesed in public service are rare, though it is their own responsibility.
I believe all these problems can be overcome if doctors can understand the responsibility they have towards their own fellow citizens.

….which is why, we need to really do something to improve management capacities.

Also, on a lighter note, nobody is willing to accept that they are poor managers, however poor they may be!

Well, not working in rural areas is a disorder, not only among doctors. It is there among most professionals. I guess, doctors when they finish their medicine, are like any other person, wanting a fulfilling life. It is perhaps difficult to expect that they will turn to rural areas just to help people. One wishes, they would see good role models during their medicine, either among teachers or among colleagues, that will make them realise the fulfillment that one can obtain through working in rural areas and challenging settings. And unfortunately, this is completely lacking. In fact, what they see is completely antithetical to role models.
