His Highness has asked me join the board as an ex officio member; therefore, I will be visiting the hospital frequently. AdvertisementWhen I was sounded out, I said I could make the hospital break even on its recurrent budget and insisted on retaining my surgical practice. Just as well that I insisted on this clause because when the contract ended, which unfortunately happened on an unhappy note, I had to resort to my surgical practice full time. Since Dr Storrar took charge, every year I received a letter from him and the Aga Khan thanking me for patronising the hospital. Improving the services meant raising the standard of discipline among staff and boosting their morale, both pretty low when I took over.
