In order to promote govt hospital and to ensure less expensive consultation, govt should improve hospital/medical college facilities and political leaders should go to govt hospitals/ medical colleges for consultation
Never.. That is GOVT medical college. So doctors wont get much benefit compared to PRIVATE MEDICAL COLLEGE
Doctors too. Many are from Kerala. They will go this MC
If it came out good then, some private hospitals in mangaluru may lose many patients.
