Dr.
Shekhar Babu Rizyal
(MBBS, DTCD & MHPEd)
Founder Principal, Nepal Medical
College
I would like to welcome the
eleventh batch of MBBS students
to Nepal Medical College,
(NMC) which is affiliated
to Kathmandu University and
recognised by Nepal Medical
Council.
During the last ten years,
a total of 949 students comprising
of 435 female and 514 male
have been enrolled, out of
which 883 have been from Nepal,
58 from India, 5 from Srilanka,
1 from the Maldives, 1 from
South Africa and 1 from Canada.
The first six batches have
completed the MBBS course
of study and from among the
first four batches, 216 have
already been conferred with
the MBBS degree of Kathmandu
University and are working
in different health institutions
both inside and outside the
country. The fifth batch shall
complete the internship by
August '07, and shall be conferred
with the MBBS degree in September
this year while the sixth
batch is awaiting the result
of the final MBBS Examination,
held in June/July '07.
Getting into the MBBS program
is the most difficult phase
for those intending to take
up medicine as a profession.
The level of difficulty increases
for every new batch, mainly
for the reason of having to
face more competitors. But
much more hardship lies ahead
while pursuing medical study.
This is indeed the reality!
For all those who wish to
be associated with NMC, I
would like to find out your
response to the following
query.
Among knowledge, skill and
attitude, related to any field
of learning including medical
sciences, which one would
you feel would contribute
the most in reflecting the
quality of a good medical
practitioner? I would be happy
to hear the response, should
I be lucky enough in future.
The journey in reaching the
society as a good medical
practitioner begins for the
eleventh batch of MBBS students
at NMC in February 2008. Learning
resources considered relevant
and practicable are in abundance
for the learners at NMC and
its teaching hospitals including
the community field. A good
medical practitioner cannot
be made overnight and takes
years for gradual development.
For so ever may wish to become
one , I would like to wish
good luck and convey best
wishes.
May Lord Pashupatinath, bless
you and enable you to begin
your journey in becoming a
good medical practitioner.
