Balancing it well, Physician and Social worker: Ajith Kozhikote


Saving someone's life is a huge responsibility. When we think of relying on one person after God to save our lives, and grant us a healthy living, it's a Doctor or a Physician. We have seen the physicians working day and night for the people they have never known. It's their job to protect their patients, and to devote their time to them. Apart from dedicating themselves to their duties, they are working on another track as a social worker.

How can we say that physicians are nonetheless the social workers who are selflessly working hard towards the great cause of humanity. Apart from their duty, they take care of various things that can boost the morale of the patient, and gives a strong support to the family of the ailing person. When someone is fighting with a deadly disease, it's extremely important to extend a support that can give him strength in winning the life threatening battle.

AjithKozhikote is a kind soul who is balancing these tasks brilliantly. He is the one who schedules the follow up appointments of his patients, maintaining close relationship with the patients and their families, educating the people about the diseases, conducting free workshops for the illiterates, spreading awareness through seminars, and much more. These works of the acclaimed physician from Maharashtra evidences the existence of some great people in this universe.

In his shining career, he has extended a monetary help to so many patients, who were not in the position to afford expensive treatments. The patients who were poor, or whose financial condition did not permit them to undertake treatments that were high in cost were given a concession, or Ajith gave a free treatment to them. Not only this, but he has been taking care of so many patients who have undergone a treatment under his observance free of cost. He is in regular touch with the families of these patients, and to make things easy for them, he organizes a few workshops, where all these people come and get a free medical check up.

Ajith Kozhikote is well taught to be a professional physician and a true social worker. We salute people like him who are working incredibly for the people.
