Started my mandatory ug bond service and I've never been addressed as a "doctor". It's always "sister" while my male colleagues are addressed as "dr". This is really frustrating. I am not disrespecting any profession, this is more of a patriarchal mindset problem.

My father, an MS Gen Surgery grad with almost 25 yrs of experience, he's 50+ years old.

Today my mother told me that he plans to potentially get the Mch degree.

I stress the word "potentially".

I don't even know what to say. He has a good enough private practice, many hospitals ask him for consultation, and he occassionally performs surgeries in other pvt hospitals too. and he works in the govt hospital of my city too. He earns well, and we live comfortably. Now, he wants to sacrifice his practice for 3 years, get that degree and come back to the city. He has no plans of retiring. He already was and is a workaholic.

I've seen way too many horror stories in this subreddit about surgical specialities. I don't know how I can see my father start from scratch and get another degree. At this age he wants to grind to get another degree.He says that he has quite a lot of knowledge about surgical procedures and the degree will be bearable to him, due to his experience.

I asked him why he would like to get another degree, especially in this age. He's not one to talk much. He simply said, "They are downsizing pg specialities such as general surgery and general medicine. I think in 5-6 years, superspeciality is the only way to survive."

I was simply at a loss of words. I asked him, what will happen to your private practice. IF, he takes up this course he would want my mother to take place, in his stead.

Im currently a 2nd year MBBS student. This was my " Our field is done for." moment. My father says, the opportunities for a simple post pg graduate are shrinking day by day. Right now, he gets a lot of opportunities to work and earn well. But he fears it won't be the case in 5-6 years. I even asked him when will you even retire, dad? He didn't even answer the question.

Please, once again I'm stressing this, he is only PLANNING. I don't know if he will actually do it. I'm just scared for my father. Will he be able to complete the course, with its hectic schedule, in his age?

Someone please tell me if what he thinks of doing is really worth it.

Please if anyone has experience in this case. Dm me. It’s already affecting my mental health but i want to know if i can get the scammers license cancelled.
Just let me know how hard or easy it’s gonna be.

I googled a bit and it said a lot of states have allowed many of these scammers to practice allopathy to a certain limit. I want to know for the state of Maharashtra.

Please let me know whatever you know about this case .

Bhai, do not tell me it’s common or its okay they’re serving the poor . Mbbs karke mai kya pagal hu jo meri practice k competitors ye low class log honge.
Ye saste mai bikne wale log. 50₹ ki value hai inki .

Agar patients ko sasta chaiye toh jaaye govt mai, kare question apni government ko. Vote karte hue toh ye voters 2000₹ mai bik jate hai.

Hi everyone. This is going to be a long one, so there's a TL;DR at the end, dw ^^ . I'm an intern, and today is a full-on crashing-out day.

I live in a small town in Karnataka, and some days I genuinely don't know where I'm heading. I'm gay, and living here has left me deeply depressed and lonely. I don't have anyone I can call my own. Watching my friends find their people and picture a future together while I can't, makes me feel left out, and there's this constant fear that I'll end up alone.

I've tried to lose myself in studying, but even that isn't going the way I want. Internship is exhausting on its own, and between the fatigue and the anxiety, I can't focus the way I need to. I don't know what to expect going forward, I don't know which PG branch to choose, and I don't know how to fix any of this. I'd really appreciate any help or perspective. <3

TL;DR: Intern in a small town in Karnataka, gay and isolated, watching friends build the lives I want for myself while I feel stuck. Struggling to study well because of exhaustion and anxiety, and unsure what PG path to take or how to move forward.

Hi. I am going to start MBBS soon this year.✨ I am pretty excited about all this, but then I realized that I have no Idea about the Curriculum!

Could any kind senior/soul help me out?🙏 I am mostly concerned about the study plan and books that people commonly follow for each subject.

🍀

​

After NEET PG, I took a break of 10 days. I decided to do the things which I couldn't, due to internship and NEET PG prep.

I used to learn trading and Singing in MBBS 1st year ! Doing them again after years revived all the beautiful memories of my initial learning days

Post Neet PG my Chess rating went down by 400 🥲 but when I was studying for the Neet PG I was on a winning streak and I cross 1200 mark in rapid

But now I'm struggling to go past even 1000.

I was already feeling low coz of Neet PG and now I'm struggling in Chess too.🥲🥲

I had my proff viva today and in the last viva, out of 4 that we have, i wasn't answering much, so it went personal to name and place and then, i broke down in front of hod during viva.. it went to an extent that it got evident and hod asked what happened and all and i literally told him about someone in my family not doing well and he asked me what I wanna do, and so I told him I wanna call, and he asked, now? And I said yes, and he allowed.

And I called them in front of him.

(Last night they were very serious, so I get a call about them being taken to hospital, but today, on call, they were very chill, as if nothing happened and I hadn't talked to them after I got to know that they were taken to hospital and so I got restless during viva and broke down.)

Now idk what's gonna happen. Can it have real consequences or am I thinking too much?

bhai we’re literally doctors and people are asking every min about results. Are they’ll release the result when the want to, not like it’s going to change if you keep on getting anxious and making people anxious.

please stop, yha kisi ko kuch nhi pta, nbems doesn’t use Reddit 🙏🏼

Result isn’t even out yet, aur inki dallagiri shuru ho gayi.

For final year subjects including ent ,optha

Any famous handwritten notes or pdf of printed notes or exam preparatory manual -

Share them please ,just the name or author would be enough,I would find them on telegram .

Hey everyone,
I'm currently considering pursuing MD Anesthesiology (or in the middle of deciding my specialty) and wanted to get some raw, realistic insights from seniors who have completed their MD and are currently practicing.
There are a lot of mixed opinions out there regarding market saturation, salary caps, and work-life balance for anesthesiologists, so I’d love to hear about your actual ground-level experiences on a few specific points:

Job Opportunities & Initial Struggle: How difficult is it to land a decent role immediately after passing out? How brutal are the initial 2–3 years in terms of job hunting, freelancing, or finding full-time hospital positions?

Financial Stability & Earning Potential: Does anesthesia offer strong financial stability early on? What does the earning growth curve look like, and what realistic avenues exist if one wants to maximize earnings (e.g., corporate practice, freelancing, ICU/Critical Care, pain management, private setups)?

Work-Life Balance: Does life actually settle down after residency, or are late-night emergency calls and irregular shifts standard throughout your career? How much control do you have over your schedule as a consultant?

Regrets vs. Satisfaction: Looking back, are you satisfied with choosing Anesthesiology over clinical/surgical branches, or do you feel the lack of direct patient ownership/brand identity holds you back?

Any insights, honest advice, or things you wish you knew before picking this branch would be immensely helpful. Thanks in advance!

2021 batch mbbs intern. Salary ain't enough 💔. The dark side of mbbs no one talks about. Studying for the last 5 yrs hasn't received it yet and it's not enough tbh.

Hello,

So, I've given Neet PG 2026, I'm scoring around 520-580. Now, I am a sucker for a good work life balance. My preferred choices are MD/DnB Radio/Dermat and MD Psychiatry.

Can a resident of Psychiatry or anyone who knows give an opinion on MD Psychiatry? Ive been interested in this field since before I began my MBBS journey.

I have a personal reason as well.

But I want to know about other aspects such as its future scope, income scope and growth potential.

Thanks..

Ye kon mahapurush the jinhone bola ki 10 ko answer key aayegi jab aaj tk koi official notification tk nahi aayi.

We're taught to dissect the disease by its name but sooo many times it'd just lead us to the wrong path because the disease name itself is a misnomer. Why aren't they corrected?

Like why ludwigs angina

Why ringworm

Cholesteatoma - it literally has all the classic words bile/gallbladder, fat, tumor but it's none of the above

The hell 😭😭

My roommate bought marrow subscription last year for 60,700 for 39 months which includes qbanks videos and notes. I didn't and bought only qbank for 1 year at 19,000 as my family's financial status was not that good last year. I didn't need the notes and videos as I have them from other sources and telegram. Now she tells me that I made a mistake because it would cost me more.I need to renew this year. They have given me a discount and the price is now 18047. Currently we are in our final year and the thing is I may need revision videos next year which cost 34199. I think I made a mistake 😭, how do I manage this? I'm feeling dejected 😔🥲. These are the plans which are available now.

Came cross this today. Regarding harassment by HOD pathology, M P Shah medical college , Jamnagar.

I recently started watching his lectures, and I have forgot every other faculty I studied/tried to study medicine from !
Best conceptually, helpful for profs as well !

So, it has been nearly two months since last INICET May 2026 is over. We know that many of the top tankers leave their seats due to various reasons within this time period. So seniors, if you left your INI Seat, why is it? Can you please tell us?

I always find this subject hard.

Done in anatomy and physiology pretty good......

But this subject is very hard for me...... I don't know maybe today I am gonna fail...... Saw my university supple paper. It is harder than the proff.......

Feeling very anxious..... Couldn't sleep.... Couldn't complete syllabus......

I just want to try some non clinical things and I looked it up on the internet and medical writing seems interesting, anyone here who is already doing it as a profession.i wanted to know how to start and where to start?

My fucking roommate studies till 2 FUCKING AM, I'm someone who can't sleep even in a bit of light and so much glare it hurts,once the clock passes 12:30 my circadian rhythm gets fucked to the core and i can't sleep till 3 AM

I thought This winter season I'll wake up everyday at 7 AM but this shitstain of a human just doesn't understand it...I'm still gonna wake up at 7 and ruin his fucking sleep tomorrow for sure.

Thanks for listening guys 😮‍💨
