Those so called doctors trained in Ukraine are eye sore. They don't know anything. They are total disgrace. Both in clinical and theory. Lots of them are not even close to Nigerian trained doctors, talkless of been on par with them. I don't know if it's jamboree they went there to do.

Sorry sir, but I disagree with this submission. It's more opinionated than factual. You probably just don't like the country.

Pray tell, how many of their doctors have you interacted with to come up with this bold assertion? Have you asked yourself why Nigerian doctors are doing great abroad despite the poor education in the country? Dude, some schools are better than others, but the country of graduation is not really a major factor in MBBS provided the school is accredited by a body recognized by the WFME and the individual is able to pass the regional professional license exams of the host country. This is why you see doctors from Sub-Saharan Africa getting jobs and doing well all over the world despite the so-called poor education in the region. Are you saying these countries are all better than Ukraine when it comes to medicine?

If the Ukrainian doctors you're referring to are practicing anywhere outside Ukraine, they are verted and considered as good as thier local counterparts. We have many of them here in the US/Canada and they're doing just as good as their colleagues from all over the world. The US/Canada will NEVER employ any medical practioner that can be described the way you did above. There's no single recognized med school rating out there that put Nigeria or any African country above Ukraine. Many of them have Ukraine in the top 10 to 20. So f you had an ugly experience with a Ukrainian doctor, it does not sum up the performance of the entire medical schools.

How many of their doctors have you interacted with to come up with this assertion? There's a reason why Nigerian doctors are doing great abroad despite the poor education in the country. Yes, some schools are better than others, but the country of graduation is not really a major factor in MBBS provided that first, school is accredited by a body recognized by the WFME; second the school is recognized by the host country; and third, the individual is able to pass the regional professional license exams of the host country.

Besides, there's no single recognized med school rating out there that put Nigeria or any African country above Ukraine. Many of them have Ukraine in the top 10 to 20. So I'm surprised by your claims. If you had an ugly experience with a Ukrainian doctor, it definitely does not sum up the performance of the entire medical schools.

ZIAZI:
We are not experiencing a war situation and out students are at home.
These are countries with contingency plans, unlike Nigeria.
Knowledge can still be passed online! Gush!
So they really want the students to be like our "ASUU victims" when academic activities can still be done online?

Who do Nigeria this thing? They frown at anything innovative.

MrOkenwa:
Unfortunately, they would need to look elsewhere to complete their training. Medicine cannot be entirely thought online, no matter how they sugarcoat it.
They should instead lobby the government to make arrangements for them to be absorbed by any accredited medical school in Nigeria, to complete their training.
Another option is to obtain their transcripts and get transferred to any of the private universities that offers medical training. They can also seek to be transferred to any other medical college in those neighboring countries.
Aside from MDCN, I'm registered with 3 other medical regulatory Authorities ( GMC-UK, DOH-ABU DHABI and DHA). I can tell you for a fact that MDCN is the most lenient, in terms of requirements to be fulfilled before being granted license to practice.

godliman:

Thank you you just nailed it

Ndibuna:

Ukraine trained Drs don't know 1/100000000 of what the Nigerian trained counterparts know. They know this themselves, so it is not for debate.

etrange:


Lol... Don't worry, I'm not even gonna try to debate a baseless statement. I have better things to do with my time.

Ndibuna:

Bc you know nothing of what you're writing. I'm telling u fact which u need to find out yourself.

How can people who are not allowed to touch white patients know anything close to Nigerian trained Drs with heavy access to patients. U think say medicine be like social studies taught online? Lol

MrOkenwa:

In those days,as a resident, if you have a Nigerian trained HO on call with you, you can have a small nap. If otherwise, dem no born you well.
A lady, Russian trained almost got me in trouble in the OR. I can never forget that experience. I never trust any HO since that time, even though I know what naija trained HO's are doing outside.

Ndibuna:

You were once a HO though. But I think mdcn is right on this one

Ndibuna:

Not all knowledge is passed online. Some are peculiar esp medicine. Imagine an online Dr without real patient experience. You be foool guy, will u allow such to treat u or your daughter

ZIAZI:


I personally detest responding to your ilk on this platform. Must you be so uncouth and vile? Disagree with me without using abusive words.
By the way, the guy in question is in his 6th year, and not just a JJC. AND please, do not underestimate the power of the internet.

MrOkenwa:

Of course and I trained many before I left. I became paranoid after a particular experience. Make I just stop here. Have a great day chief.

Ndibuna:

Internet no reach anywhere in study of medicine. This is the bitter truth. You need to interact with the patients, examine and know in real life what happens. Why do you think even other sciences use rabbits for experiment. Science is not sociology

kenedy175:


The situation is a sad one. I can only imagine what goes through the minds of such students after spending so much time In school.

It seems you're foreign trained too. I really wish an amicable solution could be proffered.

Just for clarification, at what year/level do you gain access to patients?
