Hafiz Corner:

Question by Erik aka @flaxz :
Question for Hafiz, what motivated you to become a doctor, and what motivated you to stay after you became a doctor?

Answer:
Well, it is the mindset that grew in me from childhood. Every parent in our society wants their child to become either a doctor or an engineer. It was not any different in our home. My elder brother was on the pipeline to be an engineer. So, it was on me to bring a doctor to our home 😀. To be mentioned, I got a chance in the chemical engineering department of the top Engineering institution of Bangladesh. At the same time, I was on the merit list for the medical entrance examination. I opted for the medical sector.

Come to the second part of your questions. After 6 years of study in the medical sector and becoming a doctor, what else I could have done!! Just after finishing the internship, I started to do a job in private hospitals. Then, I was in the Maldives for two years as a medical officer. And in the last 4 and a half years, I am working in the current institution. So, I didn't get time to think about doing something else other than being a doctor.
