Recently, most of the people come across so many doctors who doesn’t know proper treatment to cure disease. But we thought only few of them are like that and they don't know treatment but they are graduates. Its absolutely wrong that “they don't even go beyond secondary education” statistic says. Moreover, the daily news also reported that due to the ill treatment of doctor, the patient is in coma, died, critical situation, etc. Nowadays doctors are mostly money minded instead of securing one’s life by providing proper service.
