The sincerity and diligence of health care providers regarding their timely interventions for the spectrum of ailments at all levels of stressful occupational environments even in the usual infrastructure poor compromised health care facilities of hospitals in our country is appreciable. In last one decade the scenarios evidently showed that integrity and trustworthiness of health care providers are being questioned by the health care seekers in spite of well known fact of widespread deficiency of basic amenities. As the downstream effects, all the unfulfilled expectations of receiving comprehensive public health care are being vented out as the wrath to the doctors leading to series of attacks on doctors and creating chaos in the health care facilities of all levels across the country. The source of this intolerance towards health care providers stems from higher expectations (? magic cure for all morbidities) from doctors on one hand and the limited health awareness, education of patients and their caregivers (attendants and bystanders) on the other hand. There is multifactorial causation of this sensitive issue that is increasing at an alarming momentum as the doctors are treated as 'soft targets'. The primary aim of this article is to sensitize stakeholders and policy makers regarding barbaric attacks on the modesty of doctors; secondly to strengthen the awareness of first contact physicians of the legal and administrative safety measures to protect themselves from the unpredicted situations of outrage and distrust.
