Mental illness among doctors: How serious can this be?.
J Pak Med Assoc Jan ;59(5):326-7.

At present, we do not know statistically as how many doctors are suffering from mental illness as no empirical study is in evidence. It is also not known about the magnitude of impact this can cause upon patient care. Pakistan Medical and Dental Council do not have a clear guideline in this issue. The problem can have serious consequences and therefore it is high time that PMDC should formulate some guidelines for sick doctors while health policy makers should make special provisions for doctors suffering from mental ill health. This is an Opinion.
