It was a very good experience to watch Dr. Mala doing a variety of gynecological scans in Manipal Hospital during my observership.
Not only did I learn practical ‘Tips & Tricks’ of gynecological scans but also about meticulous reporting & writing relevant history in reports. I have really improved a lot in my scanning technique, and I wish that beginners undergo this training.
Apart from academics, I highly appreciate Dr. Mala's humanitarian approach & humble personality. I wish her good luck.
My twin sister and I had a fantastic learning experience with Dr Mala mam in Manipal Hospital, Bangalore recently.
During this short observership, we learnt a lot from her not only in respect to her scientific knowledge but also of her human ethics which made us acknowledge her as the best and most respectable professor that we have ever had.
She has a passion for teaching by nature. She teaches so generously, in a very organized manner, and she cares a lot about your learning.
We covet the young doctors working with her who have an easy, continuous access to her for such valuable learning!
Besides, we had a wonderful impression of Indian people in this period, especially the staff in the ultrasound department working with Dr Mala, who were very friendly and treated us very kindly.
We wish to come back again to repeat this great experience for a longer period.
Our best wishes to Dr Mala.
God bless her.
