Kerala doctor treats catering workers at her wedding: ‘Just did what was needed’

A newlywed doctor in Kerala, Dr Shirin Subair, was called upon to provide medical assistance to two unwell catering workers at her wedding venue. The video of Dr Shirin attending to the two women, one suffering from a nosebleed and the other feeling dizzy, has since gone viral on social media. Dr Shirin, a first-year MD in Emergency Medicine student, promptly gave the women basic first aid and advised them to seek further medical attention if necessary.

The incident, which occurred during her wedding to Dr Rijaz, a postgraduate Orthopaedic resident in Andhra Pradesh, showcased Dr Shirin's dedication to helping others in need. She explained that her medical training prompted her immediate action, emphasizing the importance of early CPR and other basic first-aid measures during emergencies.

Despite the viral nature of the video, Dr Shirin was unaware that she was being filmed.
