How many of them you get to suspend the few you've got?

Why not get other disciplinary measures? Eg pay deductions for the absenteeism.

Jman06:
You obviously did not follow the activities of the Adewole administration as minister of health. The man wanted to introduce what he termed tier classification of patent medicine dealers. He had about 3 categories of people he wanted to issue license to operate patent medicine stores. These included; healthcare professionals who are not pharmacists, graduate of any course who wanted to open a drug store and then primary school certificate holders who also wanted to open a drug business! That was the reasoning of a minister who should know better the implication of such system on our healthcare system. Where else in the world is it done He made that proposal despite the fact that we now have more pharmacy schools producing pharmacists! A reasonable minister of health in Nigeria of today should be advocating for closure of all drug stores that are not pharmacies!

Why I'm relating Adewole's action with the topic is because he made that proposal in order to spite pharmacists and I'm sure he had the support of some NMA members (except the smart few who understands the negative impact such would have on medical practice), so he and those who supported him should not complain about quack doctors operating in Nigeria since they didn't see anything wrong in quacks operating drug stores!

Meanwhile, I don't support quackery in any field and if I ever have my way at the helm of affairs in this country, I'll make sure I sanitize the system.

Do you have evidence to support this claim of some members of NMA supporting the actions of the then minister?

Jman06:
He performed successful surgeries after all, so why arrest him If medical doctors think it is okay to allow every quack to dispense drugs in the name of patent medicine dealership, then they should not worry when those patent medicine guys and hospital ward attendants also start practicing medicine and surgery and carrying out D&Cs and other operations.
Nigerian medical doctors think that the pharmacists are the only ones that are affected when selling drugs become a business anybody can do despite the dangers in that. They don't know that such system would affect even the medical doctors more! The immediate past minister of health was busy pushing for such with the intention of killing the pharmacy profession. The fool didn't know that allowing everybody to start selling drugs like he suggested would affect medical doctors more than even pharmacists. That was the caliber of person we appointed as minister of health.
Going by Adewole's and some other Nigerian insecure doctors' opinions, I think this man should be freed and even given a license to continue in his practice since he can perform surgeries successfully What goes around comes around!

So, it's the doctors that encouraged people to do patent medicine dealership, whatever that means though?

How did Adewole encourage it?
If you want to call him out, please enlighten us asking the line.

Those camp doctors know nothing, I wonder what's d purpose of their housemanship.

Seriously I was sick wen I was in camp, only for me to get to d clinic and was given some trash as drug. I didn't take d drugs tho, knowing fully well d drug had nothing to do with my condition at that moment, just managed till I got back home.

Some nearly died in camp den. Honestly government need to look into this aspect, experienced doctors sud always be sent to camp, those guys can just be assisting them.

I don't even know d importance of the Nysc till now.

Op, please go to a government hospital, if possible, let it be a teaching hospital where we have specialists. I'm sure u wud get solution to it if u can do this. Act fast please.

You were ill, you were given a drug, you didn't take it because you knew it wouldn't work, you didn't get better and you still lambast the fellow that attended to you.


How do you know something wouldn't work when you didn't take the treatment? Or a treatment plan must always match your expectations?
Well done.

Your symptoms have nothing to do with the injection you were given.
You are having somatic complaints which accompany depression. This is why nothing seems to be working for you.
Try and see a psychiatrist and you'll get helped.

Thanks.

Plea bargain to snitch on his fellow crooks.

I'm afraid your article typifies what the country has reduced the profession to.

However, there are still people with a passion they can't let go. Not everyone is going to it for the imagined financial freedom.

For those that think it's a pathway to financial freedom, the article is apt.

I suppose i could have asked for a bigger salary...however, that's all in the past (some 7-8 years ago).My salary is now 'decent'

But then again, I became a doctor to help people, the idea of a good salary never ever crossed my mind.

All the best helping mankind.

My alma mata?

Wait ooo, this Osadebe never retire? I advise the young man to go and see Prof Mrs. Ikejiani (Chuba Okadigbo's wife) if she is still in the school. She will help him and talk to him.

Is she not late?
Or am I mistaken?
