But no AI can replace the moral responsibility of the doctor standing at the patient’s bedside.” Radhakrishnan told the doctors, “Your human compassion and a few kind words can be more effective than medicine.”
‘If patients ask absurd questions, doctor should be patient with them’
He appealed to doctors to be patient with patients when they ask absurd questions. When you explain things to them, they will understand. He said that by opening AIIMS at other places, health services are reaching areas where they were not available earlier and people from far away places do not have to run to Delhi for treatment.
