Doctors and surgeons are our guardian angels as they protect us and help us heal at times of crisis. The guardian angels are a part of hospitals that are abode of service to mankind and a place of solace for the sick. A healthy person is not the one who is free from diseases but the one who is mentally, physically and spiritually free from diseases. Both types of health, internal and external are of profound importance and hence the famous saying “a healthy body requires a healthy mind” holds ground even today. The feelings of generosity, compassion, caring and sharing are as important as the physical health of individuals and thus we should work towards cultivating such an attitude and imbedding such values within ourselves.
