As medical education has now become a very profitable business, so many non-professional businessmen are now involved in this business with severe compromises on quality medical education by opening new medical and dental colleges without proper hospitals.
The Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) is the only regulatory body working autonomously to maintain an appropriate standard of medical and dental education in Pakistan.
but unfortunately due to political influences there is severe deterioration in the PMDC nowadays. It is really a joke that the government initially dismissed the executive council, followed by formation of a new seven-member committee which was also dissolved immediately.
For quality medical and dental education, a proper hospital is one of the basic requirements which, unfortunately, most private medical and dental institutions do not have.
As medical education has now become a very profitable business, so many non-professional businessmen are now involved in this business with severe compromises on quality medical education by opening new medical and dental colleges without proper hospitals.
The government must take appropriate action in this matter, otherwise our medical and dental institutions will produce doctors of such low quality that they will simply assist the ‘angel of death’.
The government should take prompt action by conducting a fair election and allow the executive council of the PMDC to work independently for the betterment of quality medical and dental education in Pakistan.
