When survival instinct takes over serving, this is what will happen. Medical career has become extremely competitive, stressful and career placement takes a lot of efforts and one has to toil hard.
Medical markets are not easy due to a lot of unethical practices, lack of good regulations and undue competition due to unscrupulous elements running the show. End result is rat race. That is why in india, despite so much of talent, there is high rate of dissatisfaction amongst medical professionals. Now, these are general observations, does not mean that everyone is in the same boat. Peace!

Curriculum is more based on technical aspects in which the emotional and empathetic communication is not covered.
Lack of role modeling and assessment oriented education is also the cause where there is decline of empathy amongst healthcare apprentices.
