I am sorry to ay, that here doctors take a lot of money as "gifts" from peoples who really need theirs services. Is a shame, they have a salary, but if peoples don t give money, they really don t make something to save life...as they must to do.
Coruption is here a hard problem, and if need a doctor, or even a police service, peoples must to be "nice" and give some money; maybe peoples are guilty too, because if one give money, all must to give, and all is like a circle; what happened with who are poor and don t ave money to give? He can die, or can wait for long time, until he will have money...of course if he don t die in this time.
In your country you must give money if you have a health problem?

Remember, doctors are human being too. Priest do make mistakes and reasons out its because its our human nature to make mistakes. Nobody is perfect, as the saying goes. But we can make our best to limit our mistakes by doing what is right. I don't think all doctors are like that, as well as police officers and government officials are not all corrupt. It all boils down to the word called "business". Its all about business.

hey guy In our country(India) doctors are getting fees from the patient in lieu of the service rendered by the doctor. Good and reputed doctors are charging exorbitant fees against their expert service. Poor people can not even afford the fees.

Hi marianna, I would love to engage in discussion about this issue and looked to see where you are from to see which country also has this kind of corruption, and was excited to see Romanina as I'm finding out so much about the culture there. Alas though there is no point in responding as you appear to never become involved after posing a question.
