A Physician is one who practices the healing art including medicine and surgery, one who is legally qualified in both medicine and surgery and who is specialist in medical diagnosis and treatment. With so much detailed and complicated work, its highly impossible for any Physician to remember each and every detail about the work and its effective solution.

But where there’s a will, there’s a way. A Physician is not all alone in the battlefield of disease and problems. Every Physician has his own help desk reference. Now, one might wonder that a desk reference might be a booklet or a brochure lying on the physician’s desk for ready reference. Well, if that’s you’re answer you’re wrong. With the improvement in the means of communication and more and more modern means to communicate effectively, a Physician’s help desk is not just restricted to a booklet or a brochure but it goes far beyond that.

A Physician is like “God” for his patient. The patient places his life and problems in the hands of the Physician. With such a highly responsible job to do, the Physician has to re-check and rethink before implementing the solutions on his patient’s problems.

A Physician’s desk reference includes laptops or computers with Internet access, ready reckoner books, and telephone access with STD, ISD facilities, previous case files. Physicians’ not only have access to each other within the country or the state but they have access to each other globally; that means a Physician in India can contact another Physician in the U.S by entering a unique code number.

In fact, many pharmaceutical companies with a view to familiarize their product have started global contact groups and chat groups providing free membership to Physicians’ all over.

With so many facilities, a Physicians’ help desk reference is also referred to as an “Encyclopedia” . ~ author R Almeida copyright indianchild.com
