Doctors Should Remain Ethical and Understand Patients' Concern, Says AFMS DG at Convocation

The convocation ceremony included degree distribution to 637 PhD, UG and PG graduates in medical, engineering and management sciences.
Armed Forces Medical Services (AFMS) New Delhi celebrated its 39th convocation. During the event, Surgeon Vice Admiral Arti Sarin, Director General of AFMS addressed the students and distinguished guests present at the event. While addressing, she urged doctors to remain ethical, humane and understand the concern of patients and treat them with dignity and respect.
She further said that Artificial Intelligence, genomics, wearable health monitors, robotic surgeries, and drone-based medical logistics had become present-day realities and how the Armed Forces Medical Services is adapting with telemedicine, drone-enabled blood delivery, simulation-based trauma training, and AI-driven triage systems.
She urged the graduating students to lead this revolution, grounded in science but guided by ethics. The country, she emphasised, would look to them not just as doctors but as leaders, educators, and innovators to lead the nation. Whether their paths led to research, clinical service, administration, or public health, they were reminded never to lose sight of the larger vision: healthcare equity, rural outreach, gender sensitivity, and national resilience.
Turning to the teaching faculty, she expressed gratitude, acknowledging that their guidance ensured future doctors were not only proficient in the latest medical practices but also upheld the compassion and ethical standards that define exemplary medical care.
During the event, the chancellor, V. R. Venkataachalam, conferred the degrees to 637 UG, PG and PhD graduates in the medical, engineering and management sciences and also distributed degrees to all the graduates.
