Should there be an age of retirement for the doctors? A matter for debate.
J Pak Med Assoc Nov ;58(11):652-3.

The Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) has set a limit for re-retirement at age `70`. Upon attaining such an age, either the individual doctor should retire altogether or can continue contractual work with the respective institution but in a different capacity like: educational supervisor, researcher or just a teacher but should not continue the clinical practice in the concerned institution. The planning by the government to increase the age limit is for possible reasons of heavy pension burden on exchequer and the increase in life expectancy. This is an Opinion.
