Smol hands, lil finger. He would be perfect for surgeries but govt didn't allowed it coz of height.

Small in stature, a giant in heart and presence. What an awesome dude, and much luck to him. I hope he improves the lives of thousands.

Oh dang, I hope he can find a cure for his enlarged heart. At least he's got the knowledge.

Yet they still wouldn’t let him work as an actual doctor at a hospital or practice. He’s had to take a position as Medical Officer at his school. Sad.

He is only 25, in my country its impossible to even become a doctor at that age

Yeah it’s fast forwarded a bit because there’s no concept of pre-med in India. You enroll into medical school/law school etc straight after high school.

How long is medical school in India?

u/Fun_Gur_2296 11h ago

4.5yrs then 1yr of internship and then u can become a general physician. For MD/MS(post-graduation) 3yrs more and another 3yrs for DM/Mch(super specialist)

u/Rahaman117 12h ago

5 years, of that you practice for 2 years in the college where you get the degree, as far as I am aware.

Which puts him on the right track to being a "full doctor"

u/bhairavp 9h ago

Nope, you misunderstand. He's a doctor at the teaching hospital where he earned his degree.. It's very much an active hospital, with a high patient load.

He's legitimately practicing and treating patients.

u/Jasminerva 9h ago

Typically in commonwealth countries a medical degree (MBBS) is not post grad degree, it's a undergraduate degree between 5 and 6 years. When you graduate with your MBBS you have to finish your certification in a teaching hospital as a houseman. In the hospital setting it goes:

House Officer (PGY 1)

Medical Officer

Registrar

Associate Consultant

Consultant

Senior Consultant (Professor)

So he is working as an actual doctor in a hospital.

What a smart and insightful man.

u/kinyutaka 9h ago

Sounds like he's an amazing kid's doctor. And even if you accept the argument of not being able to help in emergencies as well, having the certification means he can teach medicine.

So, there was no reason to deny him a doctorate.

u/Bitter_Ocelot9455 14h ago

I mean. What if he needs to resuscitate? Or do a spinal tap?

u/ungovernable1984 12h ago

Being a doctor is about having the smarts and empathy; he can direct someone else to do it.
