Features of a Physician

What difference does it make whether a physician makes a mistake or is unsuccessful in treating someone? His job was to show empathy, not to fight destiny.

It is narrated that a physician would put on a veil while going to a graveyard. Somebody asked him, ‘Why do you do so?’ The physician replied that all those people had died from his prescriptions.
