Abstract

The bond period after formal academic training is many times perceived by residents as an unnecessary barrier, which prevents them from a fabulous career ahead. In this article, a post-DM and post-MD resident shares their experience of bond period at a government cancer center in rural Vizag. They got an opportunity to witness the results of an outstanding vision and unwavering commitment in the field of oncology, especially in the context of lack of adequate infrastructure.
