Na only for north and some part of the south you'll see apprentice learning medicine and surgery as if they are learning tailoring or hairdressing.... After learning under a medical doctor for like 4 years then they'll go to one college of health or sch of health tech to do two years community health science get a licence and start operating people anyhow

And d funny thing is dat most of them carry out surgical operation and CS successful

Lol 🤣

Dem plenty for Kwara state... Especially the rural part of ilorin.

RIP Gazzuzz

Every ilorin indigenes needs to wise up on the religious misconceptions.
The Turaki of their land was married to a Christian, she died a Christian, it might not be in this article but we all know..
All this forbidden thier daughters from getting married to other religion is high time they need to wise up and put an end to it.

Saraki is not from ilorin

drsibz66:


What did you want the hospital to do when he refused Cs and even had provided a lasting power of attorney stating his disapproval for Cs. Tell me what the hospital should have done.

I don't think he refused CS, he knew there was a risk of macrosomia.

Well, what do I know??

thatigboman:
no be only disciplinary action. CS without blood transfusion? How is that possible?
Seems u are a witness or u don't know those guys. People that will be taken to hospital emergency ward with broken bones and blood gushing out and still refuse blood transfusion. Why go to the hospital? They should take them to their kingdom hall for treatment

Yes it's possible, there are blood substitutes everywhere, although expensive....

The fact that they are JW is a risk on its own.

It's just a very sad tale actually

ChelseaDr:


Lagusta my man, longest time,

I think the hospital had the option of referral to another facility at antenatal booking when they (the hospital) knew about their client'' religious inclinination but they chose to take full responsibility.

Haven taken full responsibility one would have expected them to be more proactive and have early recourse to prompt intervention, especially when they had such a client in labour.

With respect to the ultrasound foetal weight estimation of 3.9kg, it may not be a straight forward case to rush for emergency caesarwan section, more so because we were not told the birth weight of the first child.

Even though we are more inclined towards safe obstetric practices, some people will still go ahead and induce a 3.9kg foetus especially if the woman had delivered 3.9kg or more in the past.

Every pregnancy should however, be treated differently

Reporting the case to MDCN is good but he should be ready to prove there was negligence and that such negligence resulted to the harm done to him and his family.

A woman is not supposed to lose her life while giving life to another being, it is even more heart breaking to lose both mother and baby at same time. So sad

My brother!!!

You are spot on actually...

This is quite a sad story indeed.....

I just pray God grants him lots of strength at this time

Gosh!! Losing both mother and baby all at once

Na wá oh

I remember that song.... "You're way too beautiful girl, that's why it will never work...."

Now he will spend time in jail

Na Waya

seborrhic:
Unfortunate series of events,but what I find troubling and suspicio in his narrative of events is this:if your wife was not contracting after rupture of the membranes,what the hospital did was what any other standard facility would do,they started with cytotec,at the lowest dose recommended,repeated when there was still no noticeable contraction,then scaled up to oxytocin.
The one issue I found with the Hospital management is that they would have exhausted the full 4 dose regimen of cytorec before starting with oxytocin.
The problem with dealing with men like this that feel they know it all from what they read is that you must play everything by the book,if not they would use one issue as being the cause of a mishap.
All these things he mentioned, paediatrician being present,physician,using infusion pump,pantograph,CTG monitor,etc,even in advanced countries they are not as it's made out to be where all these personnel and instruments would be available.
I bet if he had been told from the onset that his wife needed to be sectioned,he would have blatantly refused and told them to exhaust every other means.
But here he is finding fault with every step taken.
It's sad he has lost both wife and child,but finding fault with every step is just ridiculous.
His wife came by 11am with no issues,was he expecting the consultant to be on ground monitoring an expected uneventful labour?
Let the hospital say it's own side of the story.
Mishaps happen all over the world and there is no where every case is done by the book.
It's sad and may God granted him the fortitude to bear the loss.

No, I disagree

The woman is multigravid, ruptured membrane over 12hrs ago, and has suspected macrosomia

A CS would have saved lives.

It was very clear the woman had uterine rupture, low BP with tachycardia were clear evidences of hypovolemic shock!!

May Nigeria never destroy us

Hmmmmmmmm

This is a sad story indeed

Well, as a doctor, I have these points to drop

1. As a JW, he has the full right to reject anything blood, but he can still perform surgeries on his wife and allow blood substitutes like tothema

2. The so-called Gynecologist/obstetrician made some errors. Pre-labour rupture of membranes in a multigravid without any obvious sign of contraction, with an estimated birth weight of 3.9kg is a very clear indication of CS until proven otherwise. I am not a gynae bit I have entered theatre many times so I know this.

3. Never mess with medical personnel. Some of them DO know their onions. This anaesthetist nurse knows the fulk BLS protocol of resuscitation.

4. It's so painful that this young man lost both mother and baby on the same day. R-jolad should really scrutinize the kind of medical practitioners they employ. The bereaved should take the matter to MDCN disciplinary committee for further action.

5. May God comfort the bereaved. Ọmọ this one hit home

Omo, 2012 far o.

Not all of us want to be consultants

Some of us decided to make money instead

DDIA:

I wonder which google you the talk of.


Where did you ever learn that Nyanya is part of FCT? it has never been.

what people consider isn’t official.

it is governed by Nassarawa state Government.

You're talking about new Nyanya naaaa

New Nyanya is different from Nyanya

You are the type that easily gets lost in Abuja

You don't know the difference between Nyanya and new Nyanya

Abeg I dey go sleep

FLYFIRE:

Nyanya nearer to Abuja than Gwarimpa? Excuse me while I laugh
That's what you heard not seen
Nyanya IS in Nasarawa state

Stop arguing blindly please

Nyanya is part of Abuja municipal area council and not Karu LGA in Nasarawa state

Nyanya is the last Abuja settlement before crossing the border

Don't be proud of your ignorance please

Iamicekid:


Nyanya is nassarawa boss, a lot of places people tag as Abuja is not Abuja if not that the road in Abuja is good that’s why unna dey use kilometers mention am se it’s not far but in reality it actually is

Nyanya is part of Abuja municipal Council abeg, no need to be emotional about it

Here in Abuja Airtel has been giving me nightmares

But I doubt if it's only Airtel, people with MTN SIMs are lamenting too...

It seems Glo is fair though

I am presently using Nokia G21 and it's not giving me any issues at all. It doesn't hang, nor does it lag, and the battery is pretty decent.

It's currently serving me well 🙂

ariesbull:


Badagry are not Yoruba they are Eguns and they can't enjoy Lagos they should focus on their Cotonou relatives

Oh come on, this is hate speech...

Don't get too excited please

Nigeria and Nigerians lack maintenance culture. It's in our DNA.

We only act when disaster is at the verge of striking.

Wait , this car suppose cost reach this?

ednut1:
Both parties see blacks as sub human so i don’t care. Black people should focus on conflicts in their own countries like Nigeria, Sudan, Congo etc. Hypocrisy and war are part of human nature.

Thank you

SmartyPants:


If they came only to shoot without robbing, and did not come for a particular person, then certainly yes, that is a terror attack. It seems the media and security agencies want to economize the truth but you can deduce that this must be either a Muslim-majority area or a mixed area so they probably targeted that supermarket because it is owned by a Christian or southerner.

You are truly a smartypants

Anyway, i watched the video and it was a robbery... I suspect cultists.

You dont need to bring tribe or religion into this, Nasarawa state has a mix of christians and muslims.

I say this because i stay close to the place

Jackanda1:
After trying medicine 3 times. I had to settle for a science course. I'm currently done with my first degree, NYSC and doing a little job by the side.

The thing is, i want to go back to medical school. I have a burning desire to study medicine, i dream about it everyday and would be rather unfulfilled if i don't study medicine.

The questions i have are:

1. I intend to start my study in my late 20s. Hopefully 28,29,or at 30years old.

2. What are the disadvantages of studying medicine and graduating in my late 30s.?


3. How is employment at that age?


What are the difficulties i should expect?

Be brutally honest. Thanks

cc: Lagusta bcomputer101

Thanks for the mention.

After 10yrs of being a doctor, I have just a few words for you...

1) follow what drives your passion

2) medical school is NO JOKE!!!

3) get ready for a rollercoaster of regrets, heartaches, and tears, mixed with a life full of contentment, fulfillment and the passion to save more lives

4) I hope you're not going in for the money 🤣🤣 walllahi there is no money in medicine, especially in this nonsense country

5) you have to read, and not just to read and pass but to read and understand.

6) medicine is not just a science, but an art, and an apprenticeship... You learn new things even when you graduate

7) pray

pray again

9) never ever read in a silo... Join discussion groups once you get in, don't make that mistake of being a lone ranger

10) Las Las è go be 👍🏿👍🏿

Wishing you good luck 🤞🏿

UHLmoving:
40,000 is too lean and can't sustain you in this present economy.

Tell your employer to add one more zero, or you quit.

One more zero Kee 🤣🤣

Even doctors in private hospitals are paid 200k monthly....

But 40k is a very tiny amount, I don't even know how the OP is surviving with that meagre salary 🥺

Wizuman:


So this post is an attack on all doctors? Did u read it at all? Did u not read about the OAU grad that performed an excellent diagnosis?

Please take your time to read the post again. Reading isn't easy I know, but try to do it this time, just this time.

Did you read my post? Or you just decided to troll me this wonderful Sunday afternoon...

Bro, go and read my post again.

And no quote me again. 🙂

EmmyMaestro:
This xray belongs to Funsho, whose doctors here in Nigeria told he has a living cockroach inside him, after complaining of severe chest pains and he can only be operated abroad.

Funsho sold his house, took loans and borrowed more money to enable him travel and pay for the treatment.

Upon reaching India, another Xray was done, he was told the cockroach was inside the Xray machine at the Nigerian hospital and not his chest. He was given prescriptions for the chest pains and discharged.
🤣🤣🤣

I hope we all know this is a very bad Photoshop job 🙂

Wizuman:


Lol.
U could not even pick any of the points to counter

🤣🤣

There are good and bad doctors...

But you can't throw the whole crate away because of one bad egg 🙂

Wizuman:


Always consult Google any time you are with these so called "doctors'. . Most of the people we call doctors nowadays are young children who weren't smart enough to pass jamb, and their parents used alternative admission routes to help them study Medicine.
Moral of my epistle: The doctors don't always know better.

The fact that you were even boastful of your crass ineptitude is not only bewildering but utterly alarming!

You need help my bro

Isn't this cocoyam??
