UP: Etawah doctor draws national attention for prescribing medicines in Hindi

Etawah, Oct 1 (UNI) An associate professor at Saifai Medical University in Etawah, Dr Sushil Kumar Yadav, has started writing prescriptions and medical advice in Hindi to help patients, particularly those from rural areas, better understand their medicines, treatment, and medical instructions.
Dr Yadav's beautifully written prescription in Hindi is going viral on social media. It is believed that he is the first doctor in the country to write prescriptions in Hindi, as well as provide advice in the same language.
He said he began writing prescriptions in Hindi after Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister and Health Minister Brijesh Pathak urged doctors to use the language so that patients and their attendants could understand medical advice more easily. He writes prescriptions for at least a hundred patients every day. Although he cannot prescribe in Hindi for every patient, he has continued the practice wherever possible.
