Modern Doctors

I had finished 1 korean serial drama the week before. It is about a doctor who treat all patients equally despite their status. He treat all patients based on who is more seriously ill. Furthermore, he is a doctor full of humanity. He treat the patient who have no money to pay him and he treat the patients sickness as if it is his own. He care for the patients no matter who they are.

There is one question in my mind which applies to today's world. How many doctors in this world are really treating the patients with its heart truly care for the human sickness and not for the status or money? Definitely, the doctor still needs to eat and live. I agreed to that but due to the politics and peer pressure involve in the management, are you able to tell yourself you are a doctor who treats patient, the skill may be gifted and thru hard work to become a doctor who want to save every patient that you come across.

Scenerio:
Treating president who is not that ill and a "poor" man who is seriously ill, who will you treat first?
Despite the pressure given by your hospital "management"? Maybe you have come across the situation before.

To modern parents who wants their children to grow up to be a doctor or already a doctor, do you want your child who treats the patients for the money and status sake? Or you want your child to treat everyone equally despite the other person's status, really care and save the patients but not for the money and status. Ask yourself truly so that you will be able to educate your child further to overcome the hunger of greed be it money or status..

The only doctor "xin yi" that I come across is the one who is a clinic doctor at Sengkang, it is reported in the news. What about the doctors from government or private hospital or clinic? Ask yourself, what type of doctor are you? Someone who really care for the patients or someone who cannot resist the temptation of the status and money and act you are able to do it, in fact you do not have the capability. Or grabbing other people's skill and claim it if it is yours.

Suddenly, i think of the taiwanese show, "the hospital". What sort of character you are in the role when you are in the hospital?

What is "xin yi" ah? Also, I think for any human, they need to heal their stomach first before they heal anybody. In doctor profession, is very difficult to draw a line.

No, I don't agree with you. In this world, there is such a person.
"xin yi" means the heart for the people's doctor. He would rather eat simply and spend most of the time to treat the patients. Or even miss their meal to treat the patients. That's the "xin yi".

True, in doctor's profession, it is difficult to draw the line. But if you a truely a doctor for the people, the doctor wouldn't mind and most important thing is he would mind is how are my patients' illness. Maybe you may think that the doctor is stupid, where got such person. Only doctors who aim for luxury items would care for their stomach first because they really care only for themselves and how much they can earn from the patients.

May I ask you a question, do you want a doctor who really care for you or because you have the money and status, then me(the doctor) will treat you.

wishful thinking and faced the reality.

As what u mentioned, they are Modern Doctor not Olden days Doctor. Human's mind changed from generations to generations. ASk yourself, nowadays how many pple gain enlightenment? how many arhats? how many bodhisattva? Little or none compare to few thousands years ago...

U lived in this generation, faced the reality and accept the fact. U want good doctors, earn more and pay more. No money? Ask your garment to pay for you, they shld take care of u... haaa...

i can't but i dont complain abt the doctors bcoz they are juz holding another field of career for their living..

They crave for money too... the most important thing to remember is each individual to take care of their own health. Exercise more, eat wisely and lead a healthy lifestyle. With these, it will minimized ur visit to DOCTORS and thus no chance for them to earn ur money..

Got it?

Thanks to the anonymous comment. Indeed it is a wise comment.
The food is a killer if you don't consume wisely and exercise regularly.
Because you are the best doctor yourself. "Ping cong kou lu"...
Look after your own health. Prevention is better than cure.. Avoid KFC, hahhaha..if you can resist the temptation.
