The White Coat Inspection

Wearing of white coat (Apron) was compulsory for the doctors working in the government hospital. When the temperature reaches 45 degree Celsius (around 110 Fahrenheit) with only inefficiently working air-coolers in the jam-packed Out Patient Department (OPD), it becomes a test of willpower for the doctors working in India.

The doctor was sitting in the surgical OPD along with other fellow surgeons. He had forgotten to bring his white coat to hospital and was seeing the patients without wearing a white coat.

Suddenly he noticed some noise near the entrance of the OPD. Looking up he saw the city Administrative Officer along with hospital administrative officers discussing something as they started entering the room.

Afraid that he will be castigated for not wearing the white coat, the doctor thought for a moment and in a jiffy got up and stood inconspicuously in the patient’s queue with his head bowed and turned away from the entering administrative officers. The officers entered the OPD did a cursory inspection and went away without noticing the doctor standing among the patients.

Once they had gone to the other section of the OPD, block the surgeon once again sat at the table and started seeing the patient.
