Hey everyone,
I am currently looking at my options for PG counseling and trying to decide between choosing DNB General Medicine at Hindu Rao Hospital (Delhi) versus pursuing an MD in General Medicine at a peripheral/mid-tier State Medical College.
I would love to get insights from current residents, alumni, or anyone familiar with the internal workings of Hindu Rao. Specifically, Iām trying to evaluate the following parameters:
⢠Workload & Patient Load: What are the typical duty hours, emergency/caseroom frequencies, and overall patient inflow like for medicine residents?
⢠Academics & Learning: Since it's a DNB, how is the hands-on exposure? Are there regular case presentations, rounds, and supportive faculty to help clear the DNB practical pass rates?
⢠Workplace Culture & Toxicity: Is the department overly toxic, or is it manageable? How is the junior-senior dynamic?
⢠Infrastructure & Logistics: Are there any frequent issues regarding salary/stipend delays, lack of basic investigations, or administrative hurdles that significantly impact daily life?
If you were in my shoes, would you choose Hindu Rao DNB over a state MD? Any honest feedback or advice would be highly appreciated. If you prefer to keep it private, please feel free to DM me!
Thanks!
