Good to see focus on Andhra's medical colleges. We need more quality institutes in Tier 2 cities like Guntur. Hope the graduates serve our rural areas where doctors are desperately needed.

The point about AI is crucial. Technology can help with diagnosis, but the human touch in our healthcare cannot be replaced. A doctor's reassurance is sometimes the best medicine.

While the sentiment is nice, I wish there was more discussion on the practical challenges - long hours, mental stress, and sometimes difficult patient interactions. Speeches need to address systemic support too.

Respect to all the new doctors! It's a noble profession. My father was a doctor in a village clinic for 40 years. The respect and love he earned is priceless. All the best to the graduating batch!

Compassionate care is key, but in government hospitals, doctors are so overworked it becomes hard to practice. Need more doctors and better infrastructure to actually implement this vision.
