Biratnagar’s biggest hospital almost destroyed my bloodline
The biggest hospital in Biratnagar almost ruined my entire bloodline
3 years ago, I was diagnosed with varicocele—a condition where the veins in the scrotum enlarge due to blood pooling. It’s not life-threatening, but if left untreated, the long-term effect is infertility.
I was young and scared, but the senior MBBS doctor there explained everything properly and suggested I come back next week for surgery. Since I wanted to have kids someday, I agreed.
Next week, I went back—only to find that the senior doctor wasn’t there. My turn came and a junior doctor (probably a student) checked my report and told me, “It’s nothing. You’re fine.”
I was literally speechless. The way he casually dismissed something that could’ve made me infertile forever was insane.
Luckily, I waited for the senior doctor to arrive. The moment he came, I explained what happened. He got furious and started scolding the juniors right there—in English:
"Do you know what condition he has?"
"Yes."
"What’s the effect of it?"
"Infertility."
"Then why are you taking it so unserious?"
That senior doctor personally apologized to me and immediately scheduled my vein modification surgery. He handled everything smoothly, and after that, he even used to check up on me via Facebook, talking casually like a friend.
I am forever grateful to that doctor. If he hadn’t been there that day, I might’ve gone home trusting the junior, and who knows—I could’ve lost my chance of having kids.
