Dear middle class friends,
In your subconscious want to "belong", let not yourself get fooled.
To be able to grasp for your family what your parents couldn't afford, let the well saved money not get drained.
It was a surprise to see Columbia Asia in Sarjapur so relatively empty yesterday. And all their TVs were running promotional videos. But as a downward spiral unravels, it wasn't hard to see why: When we went to ER, were given a shoddy guesswork diagnostic exercise, with a blatant explanation that they don't have all specialists since it was evening (6pm by the way)!!
I learnt from my ayurvedic doctor today that these corporate hospital managements set surgery targets to the doctor staff, leaving the staff under pressure, violating their oaths and acting unethically and unprofessionally.
But then think about it logically: How would these hospitals that keep up the glossy look and costly machines maintain these. They have made these investments keeping an "estimate" of returns. So they obviously have to create and stick to a "plan" to pay up their bills and debts.
Let's not be foolish as consumers when making our choice of doctors by falling into these honeyed traps. The best doctors I've seen in Bengaluru were practicing still in plain bland offices, not within spanky corporate houses. Which shows that this is the results even the best would be able to earn if they practice ethically.
It is also our responsibility to ensure our ₹ are getting invested, and casting our support behind quality, not a plastic mask!
