Initial experience at B'lore.

I began my dream life at blore with a total chaos in mind "will I be a success at a new place,whether i will be accepted by my medical people,did i take correct decision to change the place,at a fag end of my carrier".In fact many people desisted from doing so .
Only thing I had in my mind was to succeed at any cost,come what may,i had three months leave
which came handy now. I could gamble for three months to see the results,before I take a decision
permanently.This idea was mooted by friend Dr Sangolli which i thought was very apt.I did not know the depth of water at blore.my trial period began on a high note.
I had to hire a small room for accommodation near to my working area.i could succeed in getting a room,on seeing it, my daughter exclaimed" pappa ye room to ate ate hi khatum ho gaya" in a circuit style. i had to endure all the hard ship that i faced in the beginning of my establishment at blore.

My days used to begin with a visit, to a Nursing home and meeting the owner of it,i had to wait like a medical rep waiting to see a doctor.I had to make several visits before i could meet the doctor.
literally i had to carry my all credentials,experience certificates to ingappraise them of my resume,begging to give me a chance to prove my worth as an anesthesiologist.
The is a hitch is that it is difficult to enter in to the vicious cycle of surgical team.Usually no surgeon
would like to change an anesthetist in whom he has confidence for the last couple of years.If this is the case then i thought i had no place in blore,where in so many stalwarts in anesthesia are established having a good practice and circle.My idea was to break this cycle and gain entry at least once in a nursing home,which i thought would pave way for the ;my smooth career.
What helped me was my experience behind me,when i quoted my experience,most of the surgeons were floored.moreover the work is so heavy that any no of unaesthetic would fall short.

At times i felt i was moving with a begging bowl,in a educated way,i too felt,why on earth i decided to come over to blore. but me patience i thought it would come to my rescue.
