Doctors are seen with great respect all over the world. Almost every parent of the middle class wants to make their children teaching their children and make an engineer. It is believed that when he becomes a doctor, his respect in the society will increase, life will also be happy due to the second good salary. However, in the meantime, a question arises in the minds of the people, how much is the last doctor’s salary.

In this episode, a well-known cardiologist from Bengaluru recently shared an incident that has influenced thousands of people on social media. Dr. Deepak Krishnamurthy, the cardiology director of Cauvery Hospital, told how he gave a befitting reply to one of his relatives, who used to make fun of his economic status at the beginning of his career.

Dr. Krishnamurthy shared his story on social media platform x, which is becoming very viral. In this post, it was asked, ‘How do you guys avoid inquiries about your salary from uncle-aunt?’

Relatives closed after telling salary
Dr. Krishnamurthy said that one of his relatives always taunted his medical career. When his old people started earning, he was busy studying and was financially dependent on his father. To become a doctor in India, one has to go through years of difficult training, in which more than 10 years are spent in medical degrees and specialization.

However, when the same relatives came to ask about his salary after years, Dr. Krishnamurthy replied to him that he became silent. He said, ‘My year -long tax was more than the total annual income of both your sons.’

Dr. Krishnamurthy did not directly tell his salary, but it is not difficult to guess his income from his answer. His answer is becoming fiercely viral on social media. At the end of this post, he used the #Satisfaction hashtag, which made this post even more popular.

Many social media users gave their response to this post by Dr. Krishnamurthy. One user wrote, “That day came early when I too could surprise relatives with my tax payment. Till then just smiling on their inquiry will have to be answered.”

This story of Dr. Krishnamurthy has inspired all the youth who face criticism at the beginning of their career.
