Subject: [AI] DMC uploads names of registered doctors on its website
I think this news will be useful to the vi persons also at least in Delhi
and hence, not an oftopic itom. If other medical councils also followed
this practice, it would have been a help to the whole nation.

DMC uploads names of registered doctors on its website
New Delhi (PTI): Want to know whether your friendly neighbourhood doctor
is actually a registered medical practitioner or just an unqualified
quack posing
as a true blue physician?
Getting that vital knowledge, which could often spell the difference
between life and death, is now just a click away.
The Delhi Medical Council launched an addition to its website yesterday
where it has listed the names of all registered doctors in the capital
together
with their addresses and qualifications.
The latest list will enable all citizens to locate the right doctors in
their localities, the council said.
"To know whether the doctor next door to you is a registered
practitioner, you just need to log on to the website where you can locate
that person by his
name, address and his qualification," said Dr Girish Tyagi, Registrar,
Delhi Medical Council.
The list, available on www.delhimedicalcouncil.nic.in, includes the names
of all 40,000 DMC registered doctors and provides an ideal guide to
people seeking
such information.
"There are as many as 40,000 registered medical practitioners in Delhi,
who have been listed by the DMC. The list that is available on our
website aims
at checking medical negligence and quackery," Tyagi said.
The doctors can be located by entering their first or last names, their
addresses and their qualifications.
Although registration with the DMC is mandatory for practicing Allopathy
system of medicine in the National Capital Region, a large number of
self-proclaimed
doctors continue to practice across the area.
The move is the latest in the Council's efforts to check the mushrooming
of quacks. While it might not end the problem altogether, at least it
will help
citizens take informed decisions, the council believes.
The DMC, which receives hundreds of complaints against such 'doctors',
has filed over 70 cases against them in the last 2-3 years. On receiving
complaints
against unscrupulous practitioners, the DMC gets in touch with the
concerned CDMOs and SHOs, who in turn verify their presence.
"To check the credentials of such practitioners, we ask them to appear
before us with their testimonials, failing which cases are filed against
them in
courts," Tyagi said.
Under powers vested with the DMC under Section 10 (a) of the Delhi
Medical Council Act 1997, the Council maintains a live register of
qualified medical
practitioners.
Those registered with the Council are also entitled to apply for entering
additional qualifications acquired by them.
