Dear friends, we (Prof & Mrs Venugopalan..) are presently in the USA in Seattle for the last 2 months. While coming from India, my wife was having a respiratory problem, which was in remission.

We had carried sufficient medicines to the US considering her condition. In the US, we consumed her quota of medicines, and she almost recovered.

But having exhausted her medicines, I became apprehensive of possible relapse in respiratory attack during our stay in US.

I asked my daughter to fix an appointment with a pulmonologist. My daughter was asked to first see the general physician for which we were given an appointment one week later, and that too on video call._

We talked to Doctor on the phone after one week for 10 minutes or so, explaining to him the medicines that we have been taking.He said he has understood and would prescribe accordingly. The medicines could be obtained from medicines outlet.

_On enquiring from the medical store, we were informed that medicines are not readily available and would be available in 4-5 days. We got medicines on the 5th day, and those were to our surprise, Cipla produced ‘made in India’.

We had to shell out Rs.21000/- that too after availing 50% discount on account of medical insurance taken in US.

The same medicines costing Rs.2500/- in India was costing Rs.42000/- in the US. It took us 12 days to get the medicines, which is normally available immediately time in India.

After a week’s time, we got another bill of $283 (Rs.23000/-) for medical consultation.

The above experience I am sharing is for my Indian friends who feel medical facilities in our country are inadequate & very poor.

Consider Yourselves Blessed that in your Senior Retirement Years, you are staying in India … and getting consultation, advice, and medical treatment so easily …

An eye opener for those amongst us who get great pleasure in berating all that is Indian.

Prof & Mrs Venugopalan
