It is us DENTIST, who are ruining our profession. We act like hawkers, ready to bargain with the patients. Guys even in countries like Pakistan and Indonesia they charge more than we do here for most treatment. Dont put yourself at par with the local JHOLA CHHAP doctors, A super speacialist in India charges Rs1000 approx and we are ready to consult for free?? Be proud of your profession. We are not selling a product at a grocery store, charge for the service renderd for which we slogged for 5 years. A store keeper just sells the product and earns a profit (some time big some time small) but he doesnt hold the responsibility, service is rendered by the company. Here we have to take responsibility for the work done. Working at a minimal profit margin will definately compromise work.
DONT WE ENVY OUR CLASSMATES WHO ARE PRACTISING ABROAD FOR HOW WELL THEY ARE EARNING. WELL WE CAN DO THE SAME HERE
