Lakshmi Shrestha of Thankot rushed to the counter of the National Trauma Center at 12 noon on Monday. She came to get treatment for back problem only after she came to the hospital, she came to know that the OPD service is closed. This is very bad. Is it possible to stop hospital services like this?' She asked, 'I came from nearby, but how difficult would it be for patients coming from far away?'

Kul Bahadur Sarki who came from Okhaldhunga was sitting quietly in Chamenagriha near Veer Hospital. He was confused when he found out that the OPD was closed. "I came by car on Friday," he said with a sad face, "The doctor who will examine me said he will come on Thursday." I have heart problems along with sugar, blood pressure and stones. He is worried about where to stay and what to eat until the hospital opens. They say, 'The hospital is closed, where should I go?' He came to Kathmandu expecting to be treated at a government hospital at a low cost. 

Karendra Shah of New Road arrived at Veer Hospital early in the morning for follow-up. However, he could not meet the doctor. "I had a dental surgery, I came because the stitches had to be removed, I was sad," Shah said, "The hospital is closed. I have been receiving treatment from this doctor for nine months, there was no question of going anywhere else.' 

Kandel also had to suffer the pain of Dhading when services other than emergency were closed in health institutions across the country at the call of the Nepal Doctors Association. He has to have gallbladder surgery. "The doctor called for a follow-up with a report after the sugar was found," she said, "patients like us who have been waiting for treatment for a long time are very upset by the protest." Sarlahi's lawyer Mukhia says that the government should fulfill the demands of doctors or give options to patients.

Mukhiya, who was sitting in a black bag with a cloth in a black bag and hospital documents in blue plastic, came to Kathmandu with a burning problem in the right side of his body from the neck to the foot. "I left the field and came to Kathmandu during June when there was no improvement even after being shown to the village hospital," said Mukhiya, who brought his mother with him, "I have been under treatment for two days. I was thinking of going back to the village after seeing the doctor today. But the hospital is closed. How can I go without a doctor's advice?'
