Are you a doctor? If yes, please could you describe how a call from looks like?

Being a doctor in Nigeria is a herculean task. Now being on call, its unpredictable. Sometimes you get it so easy and you enjoy the call in your call room undisturbed. Other times, you don't even get to put your head against your pillow. You are on your feet for 24hours.

But in all, the beauty and satisfaction of health care is seeing that patient who came to you at the verge of death smiling in a healthy state, being discharged from the hospital. God be praised.

If only there were things like career day in secondary schools, or career advisers to help guide senior secondary school students on career paths and what it takes to enjoy or to be successful in a particular career.

90perc didn't know because they chose to become a doctor at very tender age.
A 16 year old filling medicine in JAMB, wouldn't understand the nitty gritty of work schedules. So change your mindset.
