Believable but unbelievable

Believable but unbelievable

By Nida Sheikh
I know many who opted to become a homeopathy doctor after failing in certain walks of life. Few days back, I was really astonished to know that one of my classmates is treating people as a doctor. This compelled me to think that how can he be a doctor? As it requires extra ordinary talent that everyone does not have.

As far as I know, usually people strive hard to be a doctor because it is a very painful and frustrating journey.

After surpassing a fierce competition of FSc, one has to compete in the entry test of medical colleges. If he is able to get admission in medical college then he just becomes a study machine, for five years and those five years are yet another story of misery, awful atrocities, terrible schedules and cut-throat competition.

After that, he is supposed to do one year house job and then has to study for some more years to become a classified doctor or a specialist.

But a person who passed his matriculation with immense difficulties like hopelessness in Biology, blankness in Mathematics and insolubility in English then how could he be……….

Unfortunately Pakistan is one of those under developed countries where poverty, illiteracy and population growth is very high. People are mostly unaware and surviving with fake and useless traditional beliefs which results in the destruction of health and life.

I can say that they are professional actors harming people with different tips.

They are normally “Quakers”, I mean those who sit on road sides and at different clinics harming humanity with different tips, Greek and magical treatments.

The way to become such doctor is very easy. All you need to do is, simply join some homeopathic college after matriculation and within two years you will emerge as a “Daaktar”.

Here, the thing which is very interesting is that these homeopathic doctors do not know the names and number of bones present in human body.

They just apply tips and give you tiny white balls with a red color liquid as medicines. These medicines do nothing. Neither harm nor benefit. This is just for the gratification of poor and innocent people.

Now days, some homeopathic doctors have started a new trend of prescribing allopathic medicines to patients at very cheap rates by exploiting poverty of common people.

They are not only conducting their evil business in public openly, but are also using media as a tool for their advertisement.

This is an alarming question for all of us and government should take stern action against such spineless creatures. -- Weekly Roshni
