Disappointed with General Hospital

I have been in and out of general hospital all the time for this one whole year. One word to describe: terrible!. I am not only been to 1 department, but i altogether i have gone to 3 departments. The worst department that i have gone to is O&G.

Why did i say that? Too many housemen who are lack of knowledge. Yes, they do not know what they are doing and they are asking so many stupid questions. Some of the answers can be found in the medical records but they are either too lazy to read or they are too blur to realize that the answers are in the medical records.

I have one experience when a houseman kept asking me why my menses are late? How do you want me to answer you? YOu are a doctor-to-be you should know the answer to the question. Why ask me? You don't know, then go home and ask your mother !. And you know what did he do in the end? He simply cancel my menses date stating that it was wrong !. Hey ! who is having period now? You or me? What the heck are you doing? I was shock when he did that. I quickly ask him what was he doing and he sheepishly answered me that the date given is wrong! damn it!. I was so angry that i scolded him!.

I think the housemen are too lazy to brush up their skills and knowledge. They should do more research and read up more before they start their training in the General Hospital? Who are going to suffer in the end? The patients of course. What if you give wrong diagnosis? Who is going to be responsible? Patients are not your guinea pigs. Even animals also have the right to choose the right doctors for them.

I only can say, if you don't have the ability then don't be a doctor. Just because doctors earn big bucks therefore you want to be a doctor?

General Hospitals do have first class facilities, but lousy doctors. Thanks to the housemen and some irresponsible specialists !
