There was a time when medicine was a noble pursuit, a realm for the skilled, the driven, the brilliant. A time when physicians stood as masters of their craft, when innovation was bound only by the limits of human ingenuity. That time is gone. In its place stands a grotesque monument to mediocrity, built not by healers but by bureaucrats, middlemen, and political charlatans. A system where the incompetent dictate to the competent, where those who produce are shackled by those who leech. They call it healthcare. It is not. It is a cartel. A machine engineered to extract, to obscure, to consolidate power in the hands of those who would not last a day in the operating room, the emergency room, the laboratory, or the trenches where real medicine happens. The grift is staggering. Trillions wasted. Prices inflated beyond reason. Access rationed, not by merit, not by innovation, but by bureaucratic decree. The patient is not a priority, only a number, a pawn in a game of financial manipulation. But there is a weapon against this decay: transparency. The parasites fear it. They know that once the numbers are visible, the illusion crumbles. They know that when patients see the truth, when physicians are freed from the yoke of opacity, their reign ends. The choice is clear: Expose them, or be ruled by them. Tear down their fortress of fraud, or resign yourself to servitude. There is no middle ground. Let the light in. Let the truth be known. And let those who heal, who create, who build finally take back what is rightfully theirs. #healthcare

Doctors are not the problem with healthcare. They are by and large victims of a dysfunctional system just like it is for their patients.

This is innovation. When you innovate, people line up out the door to give you capital. The opposite is never true.

Update on this @HospitalsApollo incident. Today, I had a meeting with very senior official at Apollo Hospital to discuss my concerns. I shared my experience in detail, and I truly appreciate how attentively he listened. The senior official acknowledged that there was indeed a lack of communication and agreed that there should be better interaction with patients. To address the issue, the senior official also called the doctor involved to hear both sides of the story. We had a constructive discussion, and it was mutually agreed that the situation could have been handled much better. As a positive step forward, the senior doctor has personally taken charge of the case. He has asked me to bring the patient in again so he can diagnose the situation himself and directly discuss the case—something that should have been done from the start. From the bottom of my heart, I sincerely thank the management of Apollo Hospital for their professionalism, patience, and commitment to resolving the issue. Full marks to them for prioritizing patient care and ensuring that concerns are addressed with the seriousness they deserve.

For a small place like Haldwani, salaries offered by this pvt hospital is pretty high One cr per yr for gastro? 50L for radiology What will doctors have to do to justify salary? The question is, can they bring in enough business to justify these salaries? And what is they can't?

Biden is forking over $6.6B to EV-maker Rivian to build a Georgia plant they’ve already halted. One “justification” is the 7,500 jobs it creates, but that implies a cost of $880k/job which is insane. This smells more like a political shot across the bow at @elonmusk & @Tesla.
