CHENNAI: Doctors have urged the health department to recruit specialists through the Medical Services Recruitment Board to fill specialist vacancies in government hospitals, particularly taluk, non-taluk, and district headquarters hospitals. Tamil Nadu Resident Doctors Association general secretary Dr M Keerthy Varman, who has a DM in cardiology, said he is among those who have applied and is waiting for the exam. On November 4, TNGDA wrote a letter to health secretary Supriya Sahu highlighting the vacancies of doctors, including specialists vacancies, in government hospitals. However, on November 7, Health Minister Ma Subramanian said the allegations are false as there are sufficient doctors in hospitals, and over 2,553 assistant surgeons will be recruited through the Medical Recruitment Board and the exam will be conducted on January 27.
