Priya Bapat: Meena

Quotes 

• Meena : [explaining why she thinks she would be a good doctor]  Sir, I love people. I believe I can feel the patients suffering. I want to treat them as friends, not just as patients.

  Dr. J. Asthana : We are not here to make friends. In my 25-year career I haven't befriended a single patient. I have not felt their pain, just cured it. And I've done well. I do not love my patients. Confused? Let me explain. See this hand... Rock steady. It's done thousands of operations, but it never shook. But if I were to operate on my daughter, it will shake for sure. Why? Because I love my daughter. Friendship, empathy, attachment... these are weaknesses for a doctor. For the next five years... you'll be taught that a patient is just a sick body, nothing else.
