Sir / Madam,
In 13.07.2014 - Neeya Naana programme, it was telecasted that, persons from Salem, Dharmapuri, Krishnagiri who wished to participate in Neeya Naana programme can contact the following number - [protected].
I belonged to Salem Dt. I was longing for a long time to participate in that programme.
So I made a call the very next day. No response for several attempt of my call. Atlast a person attended the call, before I was about to talk, he told me to send my details & cut the call.
Till now no reply. Why do they appoint the irresponsible pesons?
Even if they cannot attend the call of the customer, why do they display the contact number? Am much disappointed.

Talking nonsense for tpr rating... i[censored] want free treatment, you should go to government hospital. Then i dont know why you want to critisice private hospitals.. money is meant to decide things.. i[censored] r done a free test in GH. Why did not u go to GH?? Answer is simple quality things will be made cheaper only if government does it cheaper.. kit of diagnostic ser is not given to hospitals by government free of cost.. they have to purchase it and do for patients. So they have to cgarge for the patient only.. Dont find fault with the treating doctor. Its the fault of the system. If like in foreign countries everything is done to patient free of cost with good quality, these arguments wont arise. For that first pay taxes, select your politician correctly, then comment on doctors.
Everyone on road cannot be granted a mercedes benz car by government. Every one wishes to get benz, similarly everyone wants first class treatment but without spending money. Its the fault of people. NOT DOCTORS.
You must be joking. Sure you can come to a provisional diagnosis based on examining a. Patient but at the end of the day do YOU want robe treated on that basis?
And btw you should know -the moment the patient is unwilling forany single test -IT IS NOT DONE -PATIENT AUTONOMY IS still valid.
Please do be sure to mention to your doctor that you don't want any tests done for any of your own family when it is an emergency.
And master checkup is a screening tool -used on healthy individuals looking for the EARLY signs of lifestyle diseases and other problems. But PLEASE go ahead a get the govt to stop it - because it would create more sick people who can thank you for their diseasewhich caught at such a late stage
Sleep well at night
Could not understand doctors are get angry? They could not tolerate their guiltiness when a person boldly cracked the truth in a public show. Anyone can assure that doctors are not doing such things as mentioned by Mr.Gopinath? Of-course not all doctors are culprits but majority are culprits and business minded. Accept the fact and change yourself.
Do u even know what is USG? What is Sputum-Sputum- AFB? What is Angiogram? U don't even know the meaning and u dare complain against the doctors.
A lady was saying that her son was bald bcoz the doctor made her take an Ultrasonogram(USG) during her pregnancy. Ultrasonogram uses ultrasound which is a non-ionizing radiation and it is mandatory for every pregnant woman to take atleast 3 Ultrasonogram during her pregnancy to assess the correct expected date of delivery, that the baby is not having any chromosomal and physical abnormalities and to assess the growth.
And in the Neeya Naana show, Gopinath told this as an example of how unwanted investigations are done. Now, if any pregnant woman is refusing to take an ultrasound, who is going to care for the baby? Neeya Naana ? Or Gopinath? Or Vijay TV?
It is better not to talk than doing harm by talking.
If TRP rating is more important than the general welfare ( which is supposedly the aim of the show), surely it is not worth it!
We will talk about money minded doctors if Mr.Gopinath is gonna work for free. And I hope t complaints are taken seriously
I AM WRITING THIS TOTALLY IN THE INTEREST OF MY FELLOW INDIANS...AND NOT FOR ANY OTHER REASONS EVEN THOUGH I HAD FRUSTRATIONS INITIALLY AS WE WERE DEFAMED...
FIRST OF ALL UNDERSTAND ONE THING ...THIS ISSUE IS NOT GOING TO AFFECT ANY DOCTOR OR HIS FAMILY MEMBERS (ATLEAST PERTAINING TO HEALTH ISSUES)... AM DAMN SURE..
THE ULTIMATE SUFFERERS ARE GOING TO BE THE GENERAL PUBLIC ... NEITHER THE ANCHOR NOR THE SPEAKERS...
THIS IS FOR THE LADY WHO ARGUED AGAINST ANTENATAL ULTRASOUND...
IT WAS TOLD THAT ANTENATAL ULTRASOUND CAUSES BALDNESS..
MADAM WILL YOU PLEASE SHOW ATLEAST ONE WELL CONDUCTED RCT WHICH IS VALID OR STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT SHOWING THAT ANTENATAL ULTRASOUND CAUSES BALDNESS...
THE SECOND THING IS THE BATTERY OF TESTS INCLUDED IN UR PRE-EMPLOYMENT MEDICAL FITNESS IS EXCLUSIVELY BASED ON THE TYPE OF WORK THAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO ...
IT IS INTENDED TO KNOW WHETHER YOU ARE FIT ENOUGH TO UNDERGO THAT PARTICULAR WORK AND TO RULE OUT CERTAIN DISEASES AND CONDITIONS THAT YOU MAY CLAIM AS THE CONSEQUENCE OF YOUR JOB, IN THE FUTURE.
FOR EXAMPLE IF YOU ARE GOING TO WORK IN A FACTORY WHEREIN YOU MAY HAVE A HIGH CHANCE FOR NOISE POLLUTION AUDIOGRAM (HEARING TEST)MIGHT BE NEEDED .BECAUSE YOU MIGHT HAVE HAD DEAFNESS ALREADY BUT YOU MAY CLAIM THAT THE PARTICULAR JOB IS TOTALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR HEARING LOSS...
IF YOU ARE TO BE GIVEN FITNESS FOR WORKING AS A DRIVER APART FROM OTHERS, YOUR VISUAL ISSUES ARE GIVEN MUCH IMPORTANCE...THESE ARE SIMPLIFIED EXAMPLES TO MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND ...BECAUSE...
YOU ARE NOT MATURED ENOUGH OR GROWN UP TO UNDERSTAND THESE THINGS ON YOUR OWN AND YOUR ARGUMENTS WERE TOO CHILDISH...SO, DONT GO TO SUCH DEBATES BEFORE YOU ARE GROWN UP...
THIS IS FOR THAT DOCTOR...DR.GOPINATH
I REALLY WONDER WHETHER YOU ARE A DOCTOR ...WILL YOU PLEASE PRODUCE ANY PROOF FOR THAT ...PLEASE ...
YOU CAN QUOTE ANY KIND OF THE SO CALLED STANDARD REFERENCES...BUT BEFORE THAT YOU MUST REMEMBER ONE THING
THE STUDY DESIGN AND STUDY CIRCUMSTANCES, THE STATISTICAL VALIDITY OF THE STUDY, WHETHER THE STUDY IS TOTALLY APPLICABLE TO THE POPULATION CONCERNED AND SO ON...THESE ARE THE ISSUES THAT SHUD HAVE BEEN ANALYSED BEFORE QUOTING A STUDY...
EVEN IF THE STUDY FULL FILLS THE ABOVE SAID CRITERIA ... A CLINICALLY SIGNIFICANT STUDY NEED NOT BE STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT ...
FOR EXAMPLE...IF YOU ARE GOING TO SCREEN 100 PATIENTS FOR DIABETES AND FINALLY DIAGNOSING 10 OF THEM TO BE HAVING DIABETES ... IT IS CLINICALLY SIGNIFICANT BUT MAY NOT BE STATISTICALLY ...BUT REMEMBER ...YOU HAVE SAVED 10 PATIENTS...(OVVORU UYIRUM MUKKIYAM THAMBI)...
IF YOU ARE REALLY A DOCTOR ... KINDLY READ AS TO WHAT IS LEGACY EFFECT IN DIABETES ...
YOU WON THE SHOW (SORRY...ITS THEIR VIEW)BUT YOU FAILED AS A DOCTOR...THIS IS TOTALLY UNETHICAL ...YOU ARE PROVIDING WRONG INFORMATION TO THE INNOCENT PUBLIC ...I BEG YOU DOCTOR GOPINATH ..PLEASE COME OUT WITH APOLOGY ...
MY ANSWER TO THAT MIDDLE AGED SIR WITH SPECS
MEDICINE IS NOT SIMPLE MATHEMATICS...IN MEDICINE 1+1 IS NOT ALWAYS 2, IT CAN BE ANYTHING BETWEEN - &+ INFINITY ...
YOU ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT REPEATING TESTS...
DO YOU KNOW ...DYSGLYCEMIA, DYSELECTROLYTEMIA, AND ALTERED ACID-BASE STATUS ... WHICH ARE PART AND PARCEL OF MANY OR ANY OF THE CRITICAL CARE ISSUES ...FOR SUCH THINGS I MAY EVEN NEED TO ESTIMATE THEM HOURLY OR SECOND HOURLY ... FOR AN ADEQUATE AND EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT .BECAUSE A DECIMEL CHANGE COUNTS AND BOTH UNDER/OVER CORRECTION ARE DANGEROUS...(DAMN SURE ...YOU WONT UNDER STAND THIS EVEN NOW)THIS IS THE POSSIBLE SIMPLEST EXPLANATION TO YOU ...
SO, YOU CANT GENERALISE EVERY THING IN MEDICINE... THE NECESSITY TO REPEAT OR TO DO ANY INVESTIGATION DEPENDS ON THE SPECIFIC CLINICAL CIRCUMSTANCES...
THE MOST IMPORTANT AND FUNNY THING IS ...ONLY THOSE AVANCED IMAGING MODALITIES ARE TOO COSTLY (IN GENERAL)... YOU CANT REPEATEDLY SUBJECT A CRITICALLY ILL PATIENT TO SUCH THINGS JUST LIKE THAT BECAUSE...
PATEINTS GENERAL CONDITION MAY(WILL) NOT BE GOOD ENOUGH ...&
AND THOSE MACHINES NEEDS SPECIFIC INFRASTRUCTURES FOR IT TO FUNCTION ... U CANT SHIFT THEM JUST LIKE THAT IN TO ICU (AM NOT TALKING ABOUT MOBILE USG / ECHO /XRAY ...WHICH ARE NOT TOO COSTLY)
SO THE PARTICULAR DICUSSION IS TOTALLY A HUMBUG...(GUESS THIS MAN WANTS TO BECOME A HERO... URAKKA PESSINAAL MATTUM UNMAI AAGIVIDATHU AIYYA)
THIS IS FOR ANCHOR GOPINATH ...
HEALTH CHECK UPS ARE TARGETED TOWARDS THE SO CALLED SILENT KILLERS ...HYPERTENSION & DIABETES “BECAUSE THEY ARE SILENT KILLERS “(HOPE U UNDERSTAND GOPI )MOST OF THEM WITH SUCH DISEASES WONT BE HAVING ANY CLINICAL SYMPTOMS OR SIGNS ...BUT IT WILL GO ON DAMAGING UR PRECIOUS ORGANS BEFORE BEING DIAGNOSED ...BUT, TB IS NOT LIKE THAT ...IT WILL PRESENT WITH ITS TYPICAL MANIFESTATIONS ...AND PLEASE KNOW ATLEAST NOW ...THAT TREATMENT OF TB IS COSTLIER THAN TREATING DIABETES AND HYPERTENSION FOR THE SAME DURATION AND AS ONE OF MY FELLOW DOCTOR SAID ...”SALI VARATHAVANUKKU EPPADIDA SALI TEST PANRATHU”???????
ONE ANOTHER GENTLE MAN SAID ...NOT ALL OPACITIES IN CHEST XRAYS ARE PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS ...YES OFCOURSE ...HE MEAN TO SAY THAT “IT WILL NOT DIAGNOSE TB” (CHEST X-RAY) THE ACTUAL ISSUE IS ... IT WILL NOT UNDER DIAGNOSE...RATHER WITH CHEST X RAY ALONE ONE MAY HAPPEN TO OVER DIAGNOSE PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS ...AND THE SPEAKER SHUD UNDERSTAND THE DIFFRENCE BETWEEN SCREENING AND DIAGNOSIS...GUIDELINES /ORGANISATIONS HAVE NOT BANNED CHEST X-RAY JUST LIKE TB SEROLOGY WHICH WAS BANNED RECENTLY... INSTEAD THEY SAY THAT DEFINITIVE DIAGNOSIS SHOULD BE BASED MAINLY AND NOT EXCLUSIVELY ON SPUTUM AFB.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT CREATED AN EMOTIONAL DISASTER IN THAT SHOW IS ... A BABY WITH ENDOPHTHALMITIS...
DESPITE ADEQUATE PRECAUTIONS ... SUCH THINGS DO HAPPEN ... EVEN MY CHILD CAN BE AFFECTED BY SUCH THINGS ... NO ONE IS AN EXCEPTION ...AS A FATHER I WILL CRY AND I SHUD CRY ... BUT THAT IS A BITTER TRUTH THAT HAS TO BE ACCEPTED ... U CANT BLAME ANYONE JUST LIKE THAT ...
AND IT IS HUMAN TENDENCY TO BELIVE COMPLETELY SOMEONE (WEAK, VICTIMIZED, SOBBING ... ADD WHATEVER U WANT)AND COMPLETELY DISAGREEING WITH THE PEOPLE IN THE OPPOSITE ... WE DONT KNOW TO ANALYSE IN DETAIL IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES... WE BEHAVE LIKE EMOTIONAL ...I WONT BELIEVE COMPLETELY IN THE STATEMENT GIVEN BY THE BABY’S PARENTS... I KNOW PATIENT’S ATTITUDE .
FINALLY, AM READY TO DIAGNOSE AND TREAT WITH MY CLINICAL SKILLS ALONE AS OUR ANCESTORS DID ... ARE YOU READY TO ACCEPT THE SAME AMOUNT OF MORBITY AND MORTALITY AS OUR ANCESTORS HAD...
DONT MISGIUDE THE PUBLIC FOR YOUR TRP RATING ... MY SINCERE REQUEST TO YOU
DR.P.LENIN SANKAR M.D.

but I assure the whole world that we doctors have your well being in our mind always.

Coming back to Doctors, it is simply lack of knowledge and competence that is driving them to ask for all tests in the hope of finding some genuine diagnosis with the help of possibly some meritorious doctor sulking in a corner. As long as this issue is not addressed at the grass roots, we can keep conducting many more Neeya Naana, but both o[censored]s (Neeyum Naanum) are destined to fail!
