The Foundation

Doctors should serve the poor with a spirit of sacrifice. There is no greater service than this. Medicine should not be commercialised. It is meant to promote a heart-to-heart and love-to-love relationship between doctor and patient. A true doctor is one who realises this truth and conducts himself accordingly.
