My Rare moments with Bharat ratna Sri Pranab Mukherjee – Dr Navneet

I had a privilege to invite Hon Sri Pranab Mukherjee in GSVM med college kanpur in May 2013 in the convocation. His program was finalised by Prez office and they insisted to draft minute to minute schedule. It was strange I thought but that is how it is done. He arrived at sharp 4pm and we finished National anthem in 52 seconds as per schedule and he took note of this.He told his ADC that it was one of the best convocations he ever attended.On returning from the Principal office, he accepted my request to join us for a group photograph with our HOD’s though he had reached the portico but then returned to the main hall.Prez’s minute to minute program is still on my mind and I learnt even more the value of time management.I confess that I became more disciplined ever since then. His program and my short association for merely one hour left indelible memories on my mind.His hidden strength was his simplicity which needs to be inculcated.
Sad that today he left for heavenly abode.I pay my homage with folded hands and prey that he rests in peace

Neurology

Neurology (from Greek: νεῦρον (neûron), “string, nerve” and the suffix -logia, “study of”) is a branch of medicine dealing with disorders of the nervous system. Neurology deals with the diagnosis and treatment of all categories of conditions and disease involving the central and peripheral nervous systems (and their subdivisions, the autonomic and somatic nervous systems), including their coverings, blood vessels, and all effector tissue, such as muscle.[1] Neurological practice relies heavily on the field of neuroscience, the scientific study of the nervous system.

A neurologist is a physician specializing in neurology and trained to investigate, or diagnose and treat neurological disorders.[2] Neurologists may also be involved in clinical research, clinical trials, and basic or translational research. While neurology is a nonsurgical specialty, its corresponding surgical specialty is neurosurgery

Art of Lecture

How to start
Draw your audience into what you’re saying.Connect with them
Eye contact
Be yourself . Be natural
Do not begin with a joke
1. I do my best to prepare for speeches, and it’s a challenge to compress all my points into something long enough to be interesting, but short enough so the audience won’t fall asleep.
2. Woodrow Wilson was once asked, “How long does it take you to prepare a ten minute speech?” “Two weeks,” he answered. “How about a one hour speech?” “One week,” he said. “What about a two hour speech?” “I’m ready now!” he replied
3. The best speech is one that has a great beginning, a memorable end, and not much in between.
4. I’ll try not to talk too long. They say its best to leave your audience before your audience leaves you.
5. I always try to avoid giving advice during my remarks. As the little schoolgirl wrote, “Socrates was a wise, Greek philosopher who walked around giving advice to people. They poisoned him.”

Doctors and Quacks
In Britain today, there are about 50,000 practitioners of alternative medicine, but only about 30,000 qualified doctors.

Taxi to the Hospital
A woman flagged down a cab.
“Where to?” the cabbie asked.
“The hospital,” the woman answered.
“Where at the hospital?” the cabbie asked.
“Maternity ward.” the woman answered.
A determined look crossed the cabbie’s face. “Okay, I’ll get you there. Don’t you worry!” He then floored it and started weaving past cars.
“No no, you don’t need to drive so fast,” the woman said. “I only work there!”

History of Epilepsy :

In India history of epilepsy is very ancient since the time of Charaka who described the epilepsy in Charakasamhita in around 1,000-800 BC.

In the ancient era, it was thought that epilepsy was a curse from god. But around 400 BC, Hippocrates was the first to analyze that epilepsy was not such a curse but a brain disorder and thus gave a new vision to the society.

Indian Facts of Epilepsy:

  • Before coming to neurologists, Indians have already done their rounds with ‘ojhas’ (exorcists), ‘poojas’, ‘herbal’ drugs. Allopathic doctor is consulted as a last resort.
  • Several social difficulties due to the public image
  • Fear, horror, superstition, prejudice and erroneous beliefs hold true even today, more so in the case of a girl or a woman.
  • Failure to convince people that epilepsy is like any other illness such as hypertension, diabetes, asthma or heart disease.
  • There are some specific problems which either pose a hindrance in treatment of epilepsy or they may aggravate the disease itself. Problems with females are like marriage, pregnancy, and profession i.e. housework or cooking. Problems with men include night shift work, travel and driving
