Just to give overview of GMC's deteriorating 'HEALTH' condition:
In 1982, My dad, aged 70 was admitted in GMC - Campal for 7 days and was
discharged alive and survived for the following 11 years. The hospital was
spick and span, I stayed there overnight for 1 week. It was August and no
mosquitoes at all.
In 2002, My Sister, Aged 29 was admitted in GMC Bambolim for 10 days and
discharged dead. The diagnosis was never know, the CT Scan out of order,
MRI at Kenkre's Hospital same story,. The hospital was just other cow shed
(I saw cows resting near the stair case, below Ward no 12/13) the rats in
hospital - size of cat. The general ward was filthy and dirty to the core.
Tks,
Agnelo

On 9 November 2012 04:43, Gabriel de Figueiredo asked this of Mr. Eduardo
Faleiro:
"Is today's GMC hospital cleaner and more hygienic than the Escola Medica
hospitals of Campal and Ribandar of 1961? If not, why not? "
COMMENT:
I believe that the above question from Gabriel is far too polite, and
hence, incomplete.
The operative question would likely be as follows:
"Is today's GMC hospital significantly filthier and infinitely unhygienic
when compared to the Escola Medica hospitals of Campal and Ribandar of
1961? If so, why so? "
Just a point worth noting: I first saw the Ribandar and Panjim hospitals
of
the GMC in 1967. They were absolutely brilliant. Then came the wave of
mutilation and shoddy constructions which destroyed the 'structure' of the
Panjim hospital. Added to that were: deputationists, petty State (Indian)
politics, petty inter-personal politics among the "bhaille" bossy Profs
and
Asst Profs, political interference and the general acceptance of filth and
uncouth behaviour as being 'Accha OK'.
Credit to the doctors who train at GMC under such awful conditions. Like
their predecessors from the Escola, GMC turns out brilliant doctors who do
very very well even against international competition.
