Shocking News For Doctors

Описание: Shocking News For Doctors!!!

Your lifespan is LESS than that of your own patients.

As per the IMA report (2018) the average life expectancy of Indian doctors is around 59 years, which is significantly lower than the general Indian population average of 69 years (as per WHO data at the time).

Cardiac arrest, cancer and suicide - are the three main reasons of premature death in doctors.

More shocking facts:

1. 40% of doctors in India are overweight
2. 50% of doctors do not engage in regular physical exercise
3. 70% of doctors are sleep deprived
4. 60% of doctors skip meals due to work demand
5. 40% of doctors have anxiety and depression
6. 1 in 5 doctors either have high blood pressure or are pre diabetic

Huge number of doctors resort to caffeine, smoking and alcohol to deal with their anxiety issues, depression and mental burnout.

As Doctors, we are setting a wrong example.

It's time to take a step back and fix our own health.
