Abstract
Pakistan Medical Commission (PMC) database indicates that there are 184 medical and dental undergraduate institutes registered to provide medical and dental education in the country. Of these, sixty-six colleges are in public sector and 118 colleges are operated by private sector.1 Abundance of private insti- tutes implies that medical education has now trans- formed into a lucrative industry. A political turmoil in regulating medical education by peak medical regula- ting body, Pakistan Medical Commission, which now possibly be renamed back as “Pakistan medical and Dental Council” has already created a chaos in the minds of medical educationists to how our young medical professional be trained and how these ‘products of medical factories’ will save lives, minimize disease burden and how do they practice ethically and professionally.
