This is exactly the pictures of what happen in d health sector, d Doctors have no respect for other professional, they know everything instead of allowing everyone to do dia work, they want to head everywhere even what they were not trained to do, they can do everything my friend dat is quackery cos u re not licence to do dat and u can go to jail if u do it, remember u are playing with human lifes and not goats

on a good day:


let me enlighten you a bit with this scenerio A patient comes into the clinic,where the doctor,the pharmacist,the nurses and the scientist are their to see the patient,the doctor,who are expert in diagnosis,clerks the patient,comes up with the differentila diagnosis,works with(not order) the scientist to come up with the definite diagnosis,the pharmacist,(the drug expert comes in) asseses the apprpriet drug and vet them,the nurse nurses the patient to health,now if anything goes wrong,we definately know who to hold responsible.mr. dr,did u diagnose correctly,mr pharma,was the drug right for the diagnosis,nurse how did u nurse this patient,and pls mr scientist,did you do your work professionally..But when one man diagnosis,prescribe,dispense,assess and discharge,how can one expect a clean job.
Secondly,if a doctor can become a consultant in paeditrics,why can't a pharmacist become a consultant in paediatric drugs,my brother,you must understand that consultation is quite different from clerking a patient, all we are saying is about professionalism in line with expertise.
Please,doctors don't hate others for beginning to understand their rights,and importance.

Cut d Crap hematologists, chem pathologists,medical microbiologists, pathologists and radiologists are doctors and dey are licensed to do what d lab technicians and radiographers(camera men) do and in addition to dat diagnose and treat, about d nurses dere is no where it is said dat a doctor can't do d work of a nurse we just opted out so we can make d work less stressful 4 ourselves. Nobody is insulting any profession, its just dat u have chosen to look down on urselves and hence has been consumed with inferiority complex. The Hospital is d Doctors constituency and nobody can take dat from us. Afterall even if u get d money to build a hospital, u can't be d chief medical director, what am I even saying, u won't be licensed to practise unless u get a doctor to be ur MD

enny09:
Must i keep explaining things to you, the hematologists, chem pathologists,medical microbiologists, pathologists are not medical laboratory scientist but pathologist doctors, by the law in Federal republic of nigeria 2003 Act No. 11, the only body recognized by law to oversee the practice of medical laboratoy in nigeria is medical laboratory science council of nigeria (MLSCN), so anyone not registered by this body working in a medical laboratory is only performing quackery, doctors a word is enough for d wise i hope some of u will not land in jail, if u are still confused u can speak with ur lawyer.

on a good day:


i don't want to call u a stupid person,however,you should know that a building is not a human body and are at all not the same in terms of sophistication,so you comparison holds no water and secondly,if the minister of health and the cmd had done the job,that nurse would be on duty....so i ask you if you were any of the other profesionals,how would you feel..

U see ur problem . Where in d world is medicine run like dat. Wat crap did u just vommit, how can a lab technician knw wich tests to run. Pls its not everybody dat goes to d hospital dat has malaria, I am amazed @ d level of reasoning of dis ppl, I am now more dan sure dey dnt knw wat dey r doing and if given d chance ll ruin healthcare delivery. Where in d world is a pharmacists allowed to prescribe drugs 4 a patient(FYI dat is is d jurisdiction of a doctor) we studied pharmacology 4 God's sake and we knw d right drugs 4 our patients. A Lab scientist does not even knw what complicated malaria is? He only see malaria parasites in blood film, he is not trained to make diagnosis but to carry out tests. I am lost for words. This is horrible coming from u, Please Go back to school and read something else. Chineke!!! Is dis Guy 4 real

Dnaz: Added to it, in a country like nigeria where it ll take 3 dys to a week before tests results cme back, u find dat d doctor has to depend on his clinical skills to make diagnosis and commence empirical trt based on d epidemiology by d time d results cme bak d patient is already healed and d result ll on serve to confirm our diagnosis. I can't see a child with fever and neck stiffness and den wait 4 CSF analysis result to show before I commence trt. Most of d things we do in this country we do from our clinical skills cos lab results take ages to cme out

If u wana b doctors medical skul is opened for evrybodi is neva too late. Rubbish

Please stop misinforming the public.
Pharmacists be it clinical or not do not prescribe drugs. They manufacture and dispense drugs.
If a patient undergoes surgery eg prostatectomy and the doctor writes diagnosis post prostatectomy, what will the pharmacist prescribe?
Prescriptions are tailored to each individual patient. It is not a mass production process. Based on the history and examination and lab findings a doctor may decide to give different drugs to patients with the same diagnosis. Does everyone with malaria get to take the same drug?
Lab scientists do not give definitive diagnosis. They carry out the requested investigation.
If a stroke patient comes down with fever and an mp is requested, which later comes out positive, is the definitive diagnosis now malaria?

Pls stop misinforming the public.

you are such a silly and ignoramous fellow,see,i will not because of your stupidity designate all drs as stupid and arrogant because i hve com across many of them that are very responsible,but for your type,i will advice you to go and sit down and acquaint yourself with your area of expertise(diagnosis),so that you will not become a liability to this nation when the time comes,you cannot fool everybody all the time.
Let me even ask you a question,why did you say i am missinforming the public?,did you read through it,or you read like you do your diagnosis,did i tell you that is how it is done? i am only suggesting a lasting solution to this problem that kuti has created for us. let me tell you,that suggestion i wroteis the best way,if you like go and import whatsoever you feel from any part of the world,we no send you,if the battle is not won now,tomorrow dey,and untill Drs leave everything about drugs to the pharmacist,leave nursing to nurse and untill lab scientist have the final say on lab matters,doctors of your type will never see peace,

timowale:


Shut up there!ur ignorance is very pathetic
who tells u that doctors ar those in charge of hospitals?
U obviously ve nt bn orientated to the best global health practices of administration of hospitals by any of the health professionals who possess the administrative and other requiste qualifications

Furthermore,Ur interpretation of the struggle of striking health workers as demanding equal salary as there doctors salary is childish.what the health workers ar canvassing for is clearly separation of duties and competencies in each chosen field of health profession to be well spelt out.
On no account should doctors misinterprete the term medical as an exclusve preserve of doctors.for better orientation we have medical nurse, medical lab technologists/scientists,medicalrehabilitation,medical pharmacy and so forth.

Laalamed: If u do not want peace for doctors u would also not get peace. Kuti does not create any problem. Go and check record he is the best minister of health ever. Medicine is an international profession u cannot just create ur own standard. Let us follow international standard then there would peace for everybody. In usa pathologists are head of clinical laboratories. If u do know ask google the roles of pathologists in clinical lab.

Dnaz: Added to it, in a country like nigeria where it ll take 3 dys to a week before tests results cme back, u find dat d doctor has to depend on his clinical skills to make diagnosis and commence empirical trt based on d epidemiology by d time d results cme bak d patient is already healed and d result ll on serve to confirm our diagnosis.

Most of d things we do in this country we do from our clinical skills cos lab results take ages to cme out

Laalamed: There is nothing like medical nurse or medical pharmacy what u would have is clinical nurse or clinical pharmacy. If u are not satisfied ask google. Granted in usa any professional can become ceo of hospital but there is office of surgeon-general. If u want ceo of hospital to be open to all, then do not campaign against office of surgeon-general.

DOCTORS LIKE YOU WILL NOT HAVE PEACE,NOT ALL DRs,I MEAN YOUR TYPE OF DOCTORS and as to your ranting..i will reply you when you grow up

on a good day:


Can you give ten good reasons why you are campaining for the office of the surgeon general,ten good reason reasons that are perculier to our culture,country and us .......please do not come with that cliche of " that is how it is done in the U.S.A", WE can only import what will benefit us as a country and health sector not what will benefit one group and leave the others
