My contribution as a doctor in a village while working in India has opened up my mind as medical doctors has a lot to do for the society and when I moved to the UAE, so called labour category of people who lives in large in camps also need community doctor’s touches both for their mental and physical development and to take them a feeling that they also can achieve more in life.
As you all know Doctors save lives, but their importance goes far beyond that. Doctors also make a difference by helping patients minimize pain, recover from a disease faster or learn to live with a disabling injury. A patient’s ability to enjoy life, even if they can’t be cured, makes a huge difference to them and to their families. If they can go back to work after an illness, that benefits their employer, too. And, that’s only part of what makes doctors important to society.
Cure and Preventive Medicine
See nobody wants to become sick, disabled or helpless. Preventing sickness or injury is a better choice: It’s less expensive, better for our health and we lose less income if we don’t get sick too often. Preventive treatment is also important for society as a whole. Many people in the U.S. and around the world can’t afford drugs, hospital stays or surgery. By promoting preventive medicine and keeping people healthy, doctors reduce the health gap between rich and poor populations. Homeopathy plays a vital role in this part and has succeeded in many areas.
Role in Stopping Pandemics
There’s disease, and then there’s plague. Black Death and smallpox have wiped out millions of people throughout history; polio paralyzed thousands in the 20th century. Now COVID19 has taken the medical world to a different level with no quick fixes available for immediate care until I write this. By working to contain potential epidemics, doctors prevent disasters. Individual doctors don’t fly solo in these crises. Fighting plagues/COVID19 takes money and organizations that work on a national and international scale. But doctors and other medical professionals are vitally important in the fight.
A real Economic Impact
A medical practice is a small business. Most doctors employ staff and rent or buy office space, pay contractors for repairs and generally improve the community’s economic health as they improve their patients’ health. For instance if a city has say 15,000 doctors who support 74,000 jobs and indirectly support 125,000 more. A hospital or medical practice can be an economic driver in small/big towns to support most other related industries including that of Pharmaceutical, Medical Supplies, Digi Health or Tele health.
Need to Educate people
With digital is part of every move and internet is controlling us, there’s no shortage of medical malarkey flying around online. Whatever you’re suffering from, someone knows a miracle cure either in modern medicine or in alternative medicine. Whatever you’re scared of, some website will shriek that it is much, much worse than you think. Doctors have the standing and the knowledge to push back against fake medical news. It’s not just about teaching patients the real steps to staying healthy. Sometimes it’s explaining that there is no cure and so no point to spending money trying to conjure one up.
When Shaping Health Policy
Whether its State, local and federal governments have a big influence on our communities’ health. Is our water safe to drink? Our food safe to have? Is there a local treatment program for alcoholics or people hooked on painkillers? If contagious disease is a threat, how does the government mobilize doctors and other professionals? Does alternative Medicine makes things easier for many? Doctors are only one voice among many that shape public policy. But they have a unique position of respect and trust, which they can use to push governments toward healthcare policies that will genuinely benefit the public.
Alternative Medicine and way is in its ahead and is widely available in Dubai being it Homeopathy or other streams. Availability of Alternative Medicine in Dubai makes the city a class apart in achieving its goal to be leader in Medical Tourism sooner. I know the demand on this area as I was practicing Alternative medicine in Sharjah before heading to Dubai to continue my practice in Homeopathy in Diera, the city currently has large number of seekers for alternative medical practitioners in Dubai.
