The scope and scenario of healthcare system of India has been going through a transitional phase. At present Indian healthcare system is in transitional phase falling in between Westernized System and Traditional Oriental System. The health care system is being forced to recognize the importance of incorporating newer and more user friendly changes, because those changes could rectify age-old problems and lacunaes affecting the entire healthcare system. Modern healthcare system has to be humane and technologically updated simultaneously to understand people and their problems and address them with high degree of compassion and clinical precisions. This could be achieved if the healthcare system becomes more holistic and treat all healthcare professional disciplines in equitable manner. This outlook could not only empower the healthcare system rather it also could understand all dimensions of health problems and related issues.
