In this episode of The Mohua Show, Dr. Debraj Shome — Director, The Esthetic Clinics — speaks candidly about the growing distrust between doctors and patients and the uncomfortable questions shaping modern healthcare.


Drawing from more than two decades in medicine, Dr. Shome explores why doctors are often placed on extreme pedestals — seen as “gods” when treatments succeed and “villains” when outcomes go wrong. He explains why medicine is fundamentally uncertain, why biology behaves differently for every human being, and why expecting perfect outcomes from healthcare is unrealistic.


The conversation also examines the structural pressures shaping modern medicine — from the rising cost of medical education and corporatisation of hospitals to defensive medicine and the fear of legal consequences.


In this episode, we discuss:

• Why doctors are often labelled heroes or villains

• Why medicine can never offer perfect certainty

• The pressure doctors face within corporate healthcare systems

• Why medical education has become extremely expensive

• The difficult emotional reality of losing patients

• Why rebuilding trust between doctors and patients is essential


What this episode is really about:

Understanding the complexity behind healthcare decisions.

Not the simplified narrative of doctors versus patients.


But deeper questions about:

• Trust in medicine

• The uncertainty of biology and medical science

• Structural issues within healthcare systems

• Why empathy and understanding are needed on both sides of the doctor-patient relationship

If you’re interested in healthcare systems, medical ethics, doctor-patient trust, the realities of modern medicine, and the challenges doctors face today, this episode offers both perspective and insight.
