For all those who blame the governemnt hospitals this is an eye opener. Its very easy to blame the doctors, the hospitals & the system but reality is inspite of such hardships, the meagre pay they get & the difficult conditions under which these doctors work they perform their duty to the maximum possible. I am based out of US...& know the kind of hardship one goes through for getting the proper medication here in the US. Nothing comes free here. Doctors charge exhorbitant amount of Fees & everything works like a real business. I can't even imagine a situation her where a paitent is treated for free......that too such an emergency operation. If he doesn't have an insurance he is a dead man even before the operation is finished. Yes there are few doctors who are responsible for tarnishing the image of govt hospitals.....but there are people all over the world like them...let us not blame the system entirely. The system we have gives healthcare facilities to even the down trodden section of the society. Instead of blaming the system let us hope & try that the implementation becomes better & conditions of Govt hosptials improve
