Accident victims are to be taken to emergency depth of a govt hospital,all private hospitals in Nigeria are poultrise, not saying govt hospitals ain't pooh but you will be better attended to.

Just pray that you don't have problem that will take you to see Nigerian Doctor operating in naija. Majority of them are useless and lazy.

In Bwari general hospital, I have shown them shege

Chartey:
So if he's a combatant at war and his colleague sustains an injury and is bleeding heavily he'll be totally clueless abi? No wonder Nigerian soldiers keep dying from Boko Haram attacks.
All military and paramilitary personnel should have first aid training.
The man died because the first responder(the op, a soldier) was clueless about how to stop or reduce bleeding. It's not even as if the bleeding was internal from what he said. He may have had other problems but the bleeding killed him.

ok

Op u gave an account of ur version of the story, we have not heard d version from d other side . who knows if you fabricated this inorder to generate widespread condemnation and hatred for doctors. Its difficult for one to give a verdict since we didn't hear from d doctors who you accused.
U said u threatened the doctor, but u were later frustrated.
Ur lack of courtesy and intimidation probably turned d doctor off.
Meanwhile Nigerian doctors make sacrifices and save lives on a daily basis yet no one comes to testify of such all because of hatred

sainty2k3:
If the doctor treat 3 emergencies and no one pay him. How will you ensure that you still meet that Hospital there in the nearest future

DID YOU READ THE PART WHERE THE DOCTOR WAS ASKED IF THEY HAVE POS OR ACCEPTS MOBILE CASH TRANSFERS? DESPITE THE GOOD SAMARITAN IDENTIFYING HIMSELF AS A MILITARY PERSONNEL?

Hi nairalanders, though this happened last month and I still can't find a way to get over it. But the thought was triggered and I had a flashback to it vividly after I read a ladies post here on nairalanders who spoke about her experience with doctors.

Anyway, Being a doctor might be just more than a profession since they are believed more to save lives. But do they really do that. Apart from the bossy act of most doctors Talking of JOHESU vs NMA and them wanting to boss everyone around, I was want to share my experience of how I finally lost hope In doctors which also pointed out that the so-called Hippocratic oath means nothing to most of them.

I was on an official assignment to Lagos that was 3 weeks ago if I can still recollect vividly. And after the whole assignment etc, I was done and around 8pm I decided to leave Lagos back to Enugu. I was with a colleague so who set out and after passing Arepo (very near berger) I think the town name is Magboro. I wanted to park and probably get fruits to aide me she. I heard a loud thud and low and behold the car behind me hit a man trying to cross the express road. The car (a minibus) was on top speed and the impact even confused me on what was happening. I parked and I saw people rush to drag the lifeless man from the fast lane so other cars won't run him over and I was still frozen where I was. This was a middle age man lifeless on the ground with blood gushing out of him. Anyway trust Nigerians some brought out their mobile etc and other were pouring water on the blood dripping man. But I was still socked and confused. Finally, I knew the man will give up the ghost finally if he didn't receive medical attention on time. So I spoke to my colleague and we went to meet the gathering crowds and decided to help this man. We don't even know anywhere around so we just asked if anyone knows a nearby hospital and hell yeah there will always be a good Samaritan out of every 12. Anyway, we but this man in my car and with 2 other strangers showing us the route we started drubuing towards the nearest hospital in an attempt to save this complete stranger live. Getting to the hospital after much blood was on my car seat we took this man out and called the doctor in charge of the private hospital which I can't even remember the name but I know its very close to Access International School in Magboro very close to ibafo Ogun state.

Upon the doctor seeing him, he asked who the famiky so we just explained and I realise his countenance changed. He said he can't attend to him without a family member there. I never knew what the doctor meant because to me the only set of people hospitals don't attend to is bullet wound victims and at least they must give first aid.

That's how the doctor started talking that who will foot the bill etc. That he will give him treatment bla bla bla. I got so angry and I asked him if his money is more essential than a fellow human live. Anyway I told him I had no cash but if they use pos, I will deposit all the money he needs because am still going to Enugu that night. Looking at the time its to 9. The doctor said they only do cash payment etc and he can't take him in without getting some payment to start it. My colleague asked if he accept bank transfer he said No just cash. Haba I got annoyed and I sowed him my ID card when he realised am a military personnel he lower his tone of talking and he said he his sorry they don't even have any spare bed or the medications to stabilize him. Haba anyway ouyt of annoyance I issued him threat that I don't even know the man from genesis am just doing my own to save humanity. I realised he was too money conscious so I told him to Bleep off. We put the man in my car again and went to another private hospital. Getting their we had almost same issue. And to cut the long story short he doctyor didn't even give him first aide or try stabilizing him. He just said I should get a government hospital around. I was so frustrated and I loosed hope in doctors that night over been money conscious not minding an innocent life paying the price with something less than 50k. Fast forward one of the boys said he knew a government clinic at the other side. And we drove their as at then it was almost 10 at this time this man was still breathing though very slowly and he was loosing lots of blood. Anyway we got to the government hospital where I can't even describe. And I was told to write a statement etc. And before the man would be stabilized, he gave up the ghost that night.

Though have seen people die and I don't feel any way bad but that made me feel so demoralized. I'd only the first two private bastard called doctors can take him in, he will still be alive. I left the hospital and they said they will bag him etc.

Anyway that night I started my journey to Enugu and till today, my hatred for doctors hisnjust so mega even though my fiancee is a medical student.

This is a true life story that happened 3 Saturdays ago if only I was thinking straight enough to get the hospitals name

no please don't generalise all doctors and hospitals
I know some really good ones

and it seems that the hospitals u went to didn't even function properly that is , they didn't even have the ability to treat that man , like u said money wasn't a problem u were willing to pay but they weren't willing to collect

I blame the doctor for not doing his/ her job.
I blame the government for not providing working tools for the Doctors.
I blame d society for staying silent while Government under fund hospitals.
I blame us all!!!

Jokerman:
Most of these doctors are actually Hypocrites... buh from my encounters with doctors, there's less ego when they see you know what you doing...

Doctors in Govt hospitals need to change their attitude to work and patients... please know you aren't the only professionals in the country... if other professionals start acting the way y'all act, things won't work out for everyone.. especially those at LUTH, UBTH etc....

UBTH has one of the best Accident and emergency centers in Nigeria. They don't act Like this and even if their services are not like those in the western world, they still try when compared with those of other government hospitals.

BEWARE: People are trying their best to tarnish the image of our noble doctors in Nigeria. We all know that as ur victories escalate ur enemies do. the driving force for people writing an articles like this include

1.They are members of JOHESU(nurses,radiographers,lab scientists etc) who are want to becoms CMD's in hospital, image a clerk with a degree in business admin fighting to become chief judge

2.The met quack doctors posing as real doctors without having an MBBS degree or a license

3.Doctors aren't prophets or messengers most of them are kind nd polite but very few are aggressive. its unfair to use these few to condemn all doctors

Doctors should be more humane, however social media should also present how ungrateful some patients are which makes it for doctors to care.
Here is a thread of one of such scenarios crated 4 months ago but never made home page.
We should not be one sided abeg

Some people are just beasts in human skin. Imagine saying he doesn't accept POS payments or bank transfer and allowing an innocent accident victim to die. Shouldn't such a doctor be reported to NMA and MDCN for displinary action? What exactly are they learning in medical schools? On another note, please all the government fund allocation to the health sector, what exactly is it being used for? I once accompanied my late elder brother to UNTH, Enugu for an X-ray. We were told that the only X-ray machine in the hospital broke down, that we should come another day. Last year, my late dad needed an MRI scan, we had to go to a private hospital -memfys hospital in Enugu because NAUTH teaching hospital in Awka does not have the machine. What exactly are government funds budgeted for the health sector being used for?

I weep for Nigeria

worlexy:
OP you're no different from an average Nigerian, instead of addressing that government has failed us, you're pointing an accusing finger to the doctors. If only the govt can give all Nigerians universal health insurance coverage such issues would not have happened( what that means is that everybody will get treated when hospitals know that insurance company will pay the bills) doctors have families too, he won't feed his families with Hippocratic Oath and he didn't use charity to build his hospital neither will his staff feed on charity, who told you that he has the necessary skills and equipments to handle such a case, and if he had improvised it's people like you that will drag him to the mud that he's incompetent like the case that happened with the corper shot by the Police in Abuja.
Go and break up with your medical student Fiance because of the experience you had with doctors trying to make ends meet. Engage the relevant govt agencies and stop embarrassing yourself online.

Keep waiting for comprehensive government insurance. No workable insurance is absolutely free. Let the government ask for insurance premium of just #5 today from all citizens and same people like you will be out castigating it for trying to wreck the country.
Let's stop stop putting personal responsibilities on the government because even if there was an insurance policy in place, it can't be automatic and not everyone will register.
#DoWhatIsRightAsAcitizen
#LetsStopTheBlameGame

I commend your efforts

You don't need to hate doctors, and BTW your fiancee will soon become one. So there's some love there in you for doctors. Additionally, doctors and military and the paramilitary cooperate very well. Having said the above, what you witnessed is just a show of the deplorable state of our healthcare system. In the previous post bashing doctors, someone mentioned about using 5% or so of our national budget to run the healthcare sector (against a minimum recommendation of 15% by African Union), that every sector cannot get all they need.
It is unfortunate for the accident victim, and I can guess the doctors you met in those private hospitals (at night) were jnr doctors and not necessarily the owners of the hospital. Meaning they take instructions from the boss,as you would from a General. The doctors you might be 'hating' may actually be empathetic but cannot do much due to the PRIVATE hospital POLICY. I guess that's why you were directed to a government hospital. Also there could have been past experiences of abandoning bodies in the hospital without any trace of relatives. This can pose health risks especially when the hospital has no morgue or preservation methods.
There's a way out of this kind of situations and which can also make hospitals treat patients with or without deposits. And that is HEALTH INSURANCE. Everybody should have a health insurance, either from your working place or privately. OP, if you had brought an army or uniform man, he would be given treatment because if something eventually happens and he couldn't survive, the army or police will still pay the bills, right? That uniform alone is showing you the way insurance can work if the hospital's know that their resources and efforts will be rewarded.
Again, I feel sorry for the deceased/family commend your efforts that night. Do not hate any healthworker. The healthcare sector needs reform.

it is official,,,doctors re endangered species....everybody bashing doctors left right and centre...haba dz is becoming too much nw.are they d only professionals .?? y always doctors evrytime..this trend is becoming something else..I think smtin needs to b done soon bfr doctors bcom targets in the society..these doctors don't av breathing space in d hospital again johesu dey dere ,,nw even in town outside d hospital ppl still wana hang dem.seriously dz is becoming too much .,they re humans too..y always dem..bankers re worse Dan doctors in the ways they treat their clients but av Neva for once seen a thread addressing der ineptitude and negligence on nairaland even ppl don't complain abt dem in town..but any small tin doctor oooooo,doctor dx doctor dat say wetin..just yday one lady was still bashing dem ,,now again another bashing from another person haba,,make we free dz guys abeg nobody is perfect...all dz frustrations are meant for our stupid politicians dat spoilt dz country not d doctorssss,,is getting too much.cut dem some slack

Another thread about doctors within 24hrs.

Doctors on Nairaland will be like...

I wish some people can write something good about the healthcare system in Nigeria, or doctors in particular. Most times it is the negative aspect that is promoted in social media for the public.

Jaqenhghar:
Will you keep quiet there? I should go and tell my friend. Am I your messenger? Look at the horseshit you put up. Is the job of a doctor to survive or help patients survive. ..because they cramm books alone we can see the result nah. Or you think the people dying are flies with no souls. Let me tell you dont know. The same Niggerian doctors take they bullshit over there do your research. Currently most cases of malpractice in the UK are by Niggerian, Pakistani and other doctors from shitholes.

Ode, it is the work of doctors to perform magic where there is no facility nah...see as this guy with slave mentality rushed to an unverifiable conclusion about foreign doctors...he even used the term shithole countries...uhn! #sick �

Typical shithole mentality. No superior argument just insults and anger. I said go and do a research. I forgot I was talking to a gutter tout with the IQ of a shrimp. Go sit your dumbass somewhere and fúck off my mentions.

You are a rabid liar! I hate rabid liars like you. Nigerian doctors are the ones keeping the NHS running in the UK. Have you ever gone to British Council to see how many doctors are writing the exams to go to the UK? IfrNaija doctors were that bad, why has the UK not shut the door on them but is still taking them in large numbers.

If Niggerian doctors are that good as you claim they shouldnt write any exams and undergo training to practice over there. Niggerians keeping the NHS running. What a joke. Peope who ca t make a simple diagnosis.... hahaha
Keep hating me I hope you choke on that hate and die slowly

Opps really tried, I admire people with such courage and kindhearted but believe opp if should be in ur shoes I will have force that shameless doctor to treat the man, I mean the doctor that told you no bed space.

just look at how you're displaying your ignorance in public. Every country conducts exams for foreign doctors. Even if US, UK or Canadian trained medical doctors are coming to practice in Nigeria, they will need to pass MDCN exams first, or do u think they will just get license like that. Your posts so far reek of nothing but hatred, envy and bitterness for doctors, it's not their fault that your childhood dreams to become a doctor were mercilessly crushed by JAMB. If u wan b doctor, u know what to do, take d next jamb form or u keep quiet and jump into the lagoon. Rubbish!!!! All your rants will not change the fact that Nigerian doctors are one of the most sort after international medical graduates abroad. Cry for the next 2000 years, it won't change anything. Now run along....

You can just imagine oh! The doctor did all her best to save her life and even went ahead to improvise but Nigerians still went ahead to ridicule the doctor and totally forgot about the irresponsible police that shot her. That's Nigerians for you. I only pity the gullible doctors that still prefer to remain in this shîthole, na dem go suffer am pass. They can only try this shít with private hospitals wet no get mouth. Can they carry such px to Eko hospital, Reddington or St. Nicholas and yapping rubbish about Hippocratic oath without depositing money first? Those ones will even size you up first b4 you pass through the gate and na from there dem go sned you comot.
Nigerians always flexing muscle on the weak.

sainty2k3:
That same doctor can not rush to a pharmacy and get the emergency drugs on credit not to talk of getting it free. The issue about Doctors and emergency cases is like this can only be resolved with good health insurance scheme. Probably all they need to do is to scan the man's finger print , get him treated and the Insurance coy pays the bill.
If the doctor treat 3 emergencies and no one pay him. How will you ensure that you still meet that Hospital there in the nearest future

That's it.

sainty2k3:
The cost is not what you can determine , you will know that as you go on in the treatment. Patients have shown some doctors fa.

True.

Simplep:
Doctors are jst simply 'heartless
Had a similar case with dem

making such a general statement is because of this unfortunate incident is rather childish. There're good doctors who value life more than money. In all profession you will have the good, the bad and the ugly. Thanks

Copied...

I am a Nigerian doctor, and I work in Nigeria.

I have been on call, 24/7 for the last 365 days, no weekends no leave. Why? Because the community hospital where I work in cannot afford to pay many doctors at the same time. Why? Because the patients cannot afford to pay for basic healthcare services. Why? Because the economy is bad. And if they can't pay, how can you give them QUALITY healthcare?

I handle emergencies with rechargeable lanterns.

I site intravenous lines with my phone torchlight.

I consult in a room with no fan, let alone an A.C, and I am expected to rack my brains and make diagnoses, even though I see a large number of patients within a short period of time.

I have had to operate on patients with phone torchlights.

I have had to improvise an incubator with a CARTON for a premature baby.

I have had to use a suction bulb, instead of an AMBU bag or an oxygen delivery apparatus, to resuscitate a baby.

I have had to use 5 ml syringe to resuscitate a patient in shock because there was no infusion set [compare this to using a spoon to fill a bucket with water]

I have practiced for 3 years but my bank account doesn't reflect it. Why? Most of my patients are poor and I am forced to pay for their treatment. Fact!

I have managed diabetic crises without hourly RBS, let alone tests like SEUCr [compare this to sailing without a compass, or flying without a radar]

In the western world, CT scans, MRI, ECGs are obtainable in the emergency department. Largely because there's an effective health insurance scheme. But here, my patients can't afford 3 square meals, they cant even do low cost tests like FBC, MP and PCV [each of which costs approximately #500], so how can they afford CT scans and MRIs, most of which costs as much as 50k to 80k for a single test.

How do you want me to diagnose them right when I cannot do these tests to confirm my diagnosis? By magic or clairvoyance?

I am faced with these daunting challenges. And I am faced with two choices: to watch them die, or to use my brain, my raw clinical acumen, and improvise to make ends meet. Most times I get it right. But sometimes, who knows, I may not. Why? Because I am no fucking "mutant X". I got no x-ray vision! Neither do I have a magic wand.

So next time before anyone compares me, or any other Nigerian doctor, with the average doctor in the western world who has all kinds of " medical toys" at his beck and call, the person should do well to bring such a person and place him on a 24/7, 365 days call in this shitty hell hole and compare his mortality rate with mine. Only then can we have this talk.

Yes, there are incompetent Nigerian doctors [ I am working on an article on that ], but so there is in any other profession, both in Nigeria and in the west. Yes, even in the Western world! John Hopkins recently published a study which revealed that the third commonest cause of death in the U.S of A, 3rd only to Cancer and Heart disease, is doctors' error! That is in the United States.

So, contrary to what we may think, "misdiagnosis", "negligence", "incompetence" is not peculiar to "Nigerian doctors".

We should stop blaming "Nigerian health care workers" and fix our system. The government has a lot of work to do. And until we do that, it would be unfair, perhaps inhuman, to compare our health indices with that of the western world, and to blame our healthcare workers for supposed "incompetence", when it falls short of what is obtainable in the western world.

I want a situation where there's an effective health insurance scheme in place, where the average man in the street can afford basic healthcare delivery, where I can run as much lab investigations as I want without being afraid that the patient may not be able to afford it, where every patient has an ECG monitor by his bed side, where I can do CTs and MRIs even before taking full history, where I wouldn't have to improvise incubators with cartons, where I wouldn't have to operate with phone torchlights, where ......

This is what I want. But I don't have that luxury. So I try my best to make ends meet in order to save lives. You should really take a walk in my shoes.

I am a Nigerian doctor, I work under impossible conditions and still generate positive results. I walk with my head held high.
