BEING a doctor is a calling. It is a profession that serves and requires sacrifices. We often hear of doctors being on call for more than 24 hours to help save lives and keep patients in good hands.

Being on call is part and parcel of many medical disciplines as people do get ill at any time of the day. On top of that, many are required to be on standby when they are not in the hospital since they might be called back.
