What does it really cost to become a doctor?

In this deeply personal episode of the Healthwealthbridge Podcast,I talk about competitive medical entrance examinations and share my thoughts on the recent NEET controversy, allegations of paper leaks, AI-generated misinformation, cybercrime, and the growing mental health crisis among students.

This is not an episode about taking sides. It is about asking better questions, encouraging critical thinking, supporting transparent investigations, and reminding students and parents that no examination is worth sacrificing one's sanity.

Medicine is a profession built on trust, resilience, and lifelong learning. Becoming a doctor should never come at the expense of mental well-being.

If you're a student, parent, teacher, or healthcare professional, this conversation is for you.
