Govt doctors warned of Private Practice in Mohali
Mohali: Declaring No for Private Practice, Mohali Health Department authorities have recently warned the doctors against possible strict departmental action if they are found to be engaged in it.
Such a warning has come from the Mohali Civil Surgeon Dr Adarshpal Kaur, while she was addressing the doctors at the Civil Hospital.
Dr. Kaur addressed the issue of private practice and clarified that if doctors are engaged in private practice, they would not be able to devote enough time and energy in their work i.e. government service.
Although she lauded the government doctors for fulfilling their duties with due diligence and dedication, she also opined that the doctors getting engaged in Private Practice cannot be justified under any context.

Dr. Kaur was quoted saying by the Hindustan Times, "Government doctors in the district have to do either government jobs or private practice. There is no doubt that the government doctors are providing health care services with utmost diligence and dedication, but it does not justify private practice by them."
