Banke. Some time ago, my wife fell ill and I went to the Western Hospital in Nepalgunj to get checked by a doctor. I waited for 1 hour for the doctor in the crowded hospital. Hundreds of patients were waiting in line at the hospital. Not surprisingly, Kiran Gurung, an orthopedic specialist at the hospital, treated the 4-year-old girl like an animal.

Gurung, who calls himself a doctor, said that the children who could not even speak well were playing with toys. Get out of the hospital immediately. ”The child sighed in fear and hid next to her mother. When the parents of the child asked her to be a nurse with the child, she said, "I have been running the Western Hospital for seven years. I have not been taught to speak." He thought he was a big man and was having an affair with a patient.

Yes! It is wrong to shout at the sick, but the biggest mistake is the health worker who treats the sick indecently. He could have humbly remembered the patient, but he did not. I reminded one of them, "Speak politely to the patient. He has come to your hospital out of compulsion. If doctors were treating in government hospitals like private hospitals, no one would come to your hospital." At this point, the girl's mother is your client. ”

He looked at me like an eater and said, "You don't have to teach manners and behavior. Dr. Binod Thapa is my special person. Only what I say happens in the West."

Disgusted by his words, he remembered the proverb 'God is afraid of fools' and grabbed his daughter and returned without any treatment.

This is the introduction of bad character health workers in the Nepali health sector. By no means do I want to convey that I recommend for the mother to be inactive. Problems like the ones I have experienced and seen can be seen and experienced by every patient. This is a common problem for patients who are forced to attend private clinics.
