The Reality of Being a Fresher in the Medical and Dental Field – And Why You Deserve More

Medical and dental education is not just difficult — it's expensive, exhaustive, and often emotionally draining. Students invest 5 to 10 years of their youth in intense study, exams, clinical postings, and internships. By the time they graduate as MBBS, BDS, MD, or MDS professionals, many are already financially strained due to high tuition fees, cost of books, hostels, coaching, and more.

Yet what happens after all this?

Most freshers step out into the real world and are expected to work — for free.

They are told:
“You’re still learning.”
“You need experience before you can earn.”
“This is how the system works.”

Let us be honest — it’s not fair.

You are already a trained doctor or dentist. Yes, you may need to learn practical skills, patient interaction, or gain specialty exposure — but that learning also helps the hospital or clinic you’re working in.

Even an assistant contributes. Even a fresher is productive.

Therefore, under the Seal of Trust campaign by BapuTalk.com, we are putting forward a simple but impactful thought:

If you are not being offered a salary as a fresher, at least ask for basic support.

You are not begging for money. You are demanding what is rightfully yours as a trained medical graduate.

Here’s what every fresher can reasonably expect:

  1. Assistantship Salary – Even a small monthly amount (Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 15,000) can help cover your daily needs.

  2. Free Accommodation – A clean, safe place to stay while learning should be a basic courtesy.

  3. Food Support – One or two meals a day, especially during long working hours, should be a standard offer.

  4. Respect – A fresher should be treated as a future pillar of the profession, not just as an unpaid helper.

Why This Awareness Matters

Most freshers are afraid to speak up. They are worried about missing an opportunity, offending a senior, or being judged as “too demanding.” But the system will not change unless we raise our voices — politely, firmly, and collectively.

This is not a protest. This is a respectful demand for dignity.

This is not entitlement. This is asking for fair value of your work and time.

Freshers often work 10 to 12 hours a day, sometimes on Sundays too, just to "gain experience" — all while managing their mental health and career uncertainty.

We are not against learning under senior doctors or joining private clinics to gain exposure. But we believe it’s time to move from “work for free” to “learn with support.”

To Employers, Hospital Owners, and Senior Doctors

Please look at freshers not as a burden, but as your future colleagues. You were once a fresher too. Support them. Guide them. Encourage them. A small stipend, a place to stay, or even just free meals go a long way in shaping their journey.

Because when you support a fresher, you invest in the future of healthcare.

Final Words from BapuTalk.com

Let this message be shared across every city, clinic, and campus.

We stand with every fresher who dares to dream, who studies hard, and who silently sacrifices — but who also deserves dignity and support.

You are not “just a fresher.”
You are the future of healthcare in India.
And the future deserves to be nurtured, not neglected.
