Thank You Doctors...!!!

Today is Doctors Day.

I take this opportunity to Thank all the Doctors, who were there with me and who are there for me when I am sick.

Let me first Thank My Paediatrician Dr.Nalini. I usually call her Aunty. She is such a friendly lovable person.

She is a retired Professor and Head of Paediatrics Department, PIMS. Earlier she was a Professor in JIPMER. Now she is the President of Haemophilia Society, Pondicherry.
From my 1 ½ years, she is my doctor. She knows each and every problem of mine. There are times, such as when we went to Munnar some 4 years back, on vacation from Chennai in Ernakulam Express, I started to vomit non stop and severely, when we are about to reach Ernakulam. From there we called her over phone and proceeded to M.O.S.C. Medical College Hospital, at Kolenchery on our way to Munnar and had an emergency Injection and proceeded further.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr. NALINI AUNTY, for all that you do and have done for me. 


Let me now Thank My ENT Dr. Thambi.A.Cherian. I usually call him Thambi Uncle. Another Wonderful person. 


He has been relocated from PIMS to somewhere in UAE. He along with his wife, Dr.Meenu Cherian (also an ENT) worked in PIMS. When I was around 2 ½ years old, after joining PreKG, I caught heavy cold and got ear infection, with severe ear pain. He tried so many ways to clear the infection but could not and suggested a surgery in my ear to clear it. Both Mom and Dad accepted his suggestion and he performed Myringotomy in my ears. From that time till 2 years back, he was my ENT. Now that he has been relocated somewhere in UAE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr.THAMBI UNCLE and MEENU AUNTY, for all that you have done. 


Let me Thank my Ortho Doctor Dr. Matthan Mammen. A Great Human. 


When I was doing my 1st Std., I got fractured (broken fully into 2) my Right Upper Arm, just below the shoulder. Such a painful moment. It is he along with another doctor, operated and fixed 3 KWires. Later after some 45 days, he  operated again in the same to remove the Kwires. KWires are nothing but three Big and Long Steel pins, looks like a book stitching needle. Now he has also been relocated to Australia, it seems.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr.Mammen, for your timely encouragement and support. 

Also let me Thank the other doctor who accompanied Dr. Mammen. He is Dr. Vijayaragavan. He is such a warm, friendly and jovial person, who made me relaxed whenever he comes to check. He used to tell jokes to make me laugh, without any fear. Still I would cry with pain, after dressing. Earlier we often see him here and there, while shopping. But could not find him these days.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr.Vijay Uncle. 


Also let me THANK THE ORTHO DOCTORS WHO HELPED ME TO OVERCOME ALL THOSE DIFFICULT DAYS, Dr. VINEET, Dr. CHANDRASEKAR, Dr.PRAGASH. Daily they would come to visit me and encourage me not to get panic and every thing would settle in course of time. There are times when I thought that I could not write anymore, or lift my hand and so on... But it is they, who helped me to overcome my fear and speak with me in a friendly, soothing manner. I am really grateful to them.
THANK YOU DOCTORS. 

Also, let me Thank Paediatrician Dr. Balu, who has a clinic in Chidambaram. He was my doctor from my 6th month till 1 year. He worked in Annamalai University, after resigning his Government job. Dad used to tell me, he is such a warm person and we could call him anytime and he would immediately attend to it. He has become our family friend later.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr.BALU, for your kindness. 


Also Let  me Thank My First Paediatrician Dr. Sundaramurthy. He has his clinic in Bussy Street. I am not much familiar with him, as I was a kid. But dad and mom used to tell that he had attended me even after 12.30 midnight, when they knocked at his door, for the first time when I am down.
THANK YOU Dr.SUNDARAMURTHY, for your timely service.

Let me now Thank the doctors of my Dad and Mom.

I Thank Dr.Ganapathi, Senior Consultant Neuro Surgeon, Apollo Speciality Hospital, who treated and operated my Dad's Extradural Haematoma with lots of clots in the brain, occured to him in a major bike accident, in Annamalai University, way back 1998. Dad used to tell me that Dr. Ganapathi is such a dedicated wonderful doctor, always with a smile and kind words. He is the FIRST Indian Doctor to get Ph.D in Neuroimaging, in 1990.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr.GANAPATHI, for your wonderful service and the encouraging words from your mouth that made mom and dad strong. 


Now Let me Thank Dad's Ortho Doctors in PIMS, Dr.Sudhir Robertson in PIMS. He is the one who specialised in arm surgery and it is he, who operated Appa's left hand multiple fracture with both rods and plates for more than 6 hours, in 2009. He told us that he fixed appa's hand with so much difficulty, as the fracture was heavy and even the bones in some places has been crushed to powder. He is such a doctor, always very vibrant and active. Very friendly too. He used to pull Appa's leg often. He too has been relocated to UK.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr. SUDHIR, for your kind jesture. 


Let me Thank Amma's Childhood and Family Doctor Dr.Ramanathan. He is now the VC of Annamalai University. His daughter and amma are schoolmates from KGs. He is a friendly and down to earth person.
THANK YOU Dr.RAMANATHAN. 


Its time for me to Thank Dr.Shankardevi, Amma's Doctor. She made me see this world. I have met her many times and she is one kind of person, a mix of old and new generation. Moves very freely.
THANK YOU Dr.SHANKARDEVI.


Another Person not to miss while thanking.... A person, down to earth, very very friendly, mixes freely with all our family members, advices what to do and what not to... Also very soft spoken. Yes... Thank You Dr.Badrinath. He is Amma's Doctor. Earlier he worked in PIMS, as General Physician. But later he has become a Cardiologist. Now he is working as a Cardiologist in PMM. Now that he has become our family doctor. 

THANK YOU Dr.BADRI. 

This List goes on and on.... I take this day as a great opportunity to Thank all the Doctors.
