A VILLAGE DOCTOR
A village doctor is usually a quack. But he is very useful to the villagers and he is the most trusted fellow in the village. In one out of a hundred cases, there, may be a qualified doctor, but in almost all the villages the quacks take up the job.
A quack gets a few years training under a doctor and in course of time, becomes a doctor. A village doctor is the most active man in the village. He gets up early and attends to his patients. He has no compounder. He himself prepares the medicine. He examines the patients and prescribes medicines for them.
His dispensary is quite small. There may be one or two almirahs of medicines. He has one or two chairs and one table. There may be few benches for the visitors. His dispensary always remains busy. The village doctor remains busy all day long. Sometimes, he goes out to visit the patients. When he goes out, he either walks on foot, or goes by a bi-cycle.
A village doctor is a responsible man. He fully realises his importance. He takes only a little amount of money from the patients. From the poor patients he does not charge anything. Sometimes, he treats the poor and the needy without taking anything. His behaviour is mild. He attends the patient even at late hours of night. He does not mind the long distance.
A village doctor is an important person in the village. He is the most trusted leader. He gives advice to all and sundry. The villagers look to him for advice. They love him and take him as their leader. He sometimes sits in the village conciliation courts. He is generally a well-to-do person in the village.
Of course, nowadays the condition of the village doctor is not so happy as it was a few years before. With the establishment of Rural Health Centres they are put to certain disadvantages.
