What is real Doctoring

Current medical world is all caught up in specialization and sub-specialization. Somehwere in the specialist is located a doctor who may not be as obtrusive as he aught to be. Many a times the physician's attention is drawn and held in the ancillary details of lab work and X-rays, CT and MRI scans etc. at the expence of 'ignoring' the patient. (I am not saying that these studies are not important, they are and they have a place)
A doctor should always be keeping the patient in view and his/her health which is the doctor's real concern. Recently I read with horror detail of a "case" (not mentioning the patient or the doctor) where some very important clinical detail was ignored (patient's complaint) and specialist surgery was undertaken with results that turned out to be disasterous. The hospital, the administration, the specialty surgeries, the nurses etc. all were placed under scrutiny.
Doctors are, after all human beings and certainly can make mistakes, but ignoring such complaints that are taught in all medical schools with emphasis, is unpardonable. These type of mistakes should not happen at all. "Listening to the patient" is the most important part of making a diagnosis, of treating and of developing rapport with the patient which is more important in doctor-patient relationship than performing an appendectomy. Listening to the patient is more important than ordering and looking at the Xray or MRI scan. A specialist is a "doctor" first and specialist after. This profession demands the utmost care in the physicians day to day activities and the responsibility is indeed heavy for each physician. That is his/her ethical and moral duty regardless of the fact that he/she follows a particular religion or not or even if, an atheist. In the hurried life of the physician of today there must be a' time' reserved for 'listening to the patient'.
