Many of us will not agree with the idea of doctors actively engaging in entrepreneurship.
Given the seriousness of the medical profession, it is quite obvious for people to have an opinion that doctors should only focus on what they are supposed to do; medical practice. It is needless to even mention that hospitals have untimely emergencies, and doctors need to be there to attend to the patients around the clock. With such demanding schedules, it can be challenging for doctors to even find time for their families, let alone pursue additional ventures while balancing two different professions.
