School is good only if you can afford it.
I told a group of people we were arguing on how pastors collect offering and tithes to build universities that there poor members can't attend, I told them that University education is not for the poor.

Like I said earlier, uni is good, but it's not for the poor, and not going to school can't stop u from fulling your destiny.
We have read how some of the wealthiest people in the world today never went to uni., Thanks!

Syphax:


You said imaging technologist as if it's one low calibre profession, one that just involves taking of pictures. Do you really think they don't know the anatomical details of the human body? Do you think ultrasound scan/pet scan is all about taking pictures? In UK, most Radiographers take and interpret X-ray pictures. If radiography was that easy to study, lots of people would have invaded the profession.

Syphax:

You really need to broaden your horizon. Do you think radiography ends in X-ray and Ultrasound? Pharmacists are only needed for drug dispensation. Radiography has lots of fields that one can dabble into. An MRI specialist earns more than your average pharmacist. In most private establishments, Radiographers are the highest paid medical personnel. The money a radiography department generates from one MRI scan alone is almost up to the amount most pharmaceutical shops make in a day. What of the money gotten from one bout of chemotherapy? Abeg

Consider yourself privileged to get advice from me on this issue. Nations listen when when I talk on these types of topics.
Let me ask you, what radiographic equipment would you get for #1.5M ?

bigpicture001:


He now has two very busy labs
..each giving him over two million monthly. Plus his job in the UK. Which give him over 3million naira monthly.. That's about 7m.

bigpicture001:


You see things only from your own side.. That he created a fanfare cuz of church doesn't mean he is too rich... The guy I tell u about. Now makes about 6million monthly and he is just 32.

Again, plenty radiographers have labs they run.

When ever I come across you I laugh
Do you know why?no
But let me fix you
You are just a jambite
Who is confused about his life
Before you even think of throwing shade at professionals, I will advise you to pass your jamb first
Because without being in the system and raising such matters seems to me childish and ignorant
I don't know if I should lecture you or let me leave but I got to correct some of your myopic notion and I will drill you from the point of a medical laboratory scientist
Medicine is the most sorted science course in Nigeria
Followed by nuts and the list goes down
Do I even need to tell you Veterinary medicine is not even a professional course in Nigeria
I saw you talking about post graduate diploma for Veterinary medicine
Please can you tell me when was your post graduate college passed into bill
Can you tell me what they teach veterinary doctors in those college
What is their area of specialization
As far veterinary medicine is concerned
It's the least sorted health course
Shouldn't tell you that you guys are irrelevant
Oh! I forgot
You are just a jambite
I shouldn't be discussing with you because you are confused
Since you couldn't get medicine you are trying to console your short coming with veterinary medicine
You should know and wise enough even at the level of your ignorance that veterinary medicine is the health course with the easiest admission as people don't even go for it
All those courses you all mentioned above are better and great when compared to veterinary medicine as a career

You said alot of things out of ignorance
But I got to tell you this
Medicine wasn't this great when it started
Medicine as a course got it's contribution from low courses like biochemistry and the rest
And the most lucrative health course in Nigeria is pharmacy and not medical
You saying every degree is upgrading to six years to be relevant
Shows your level of illiteracy
You saying MLS is being controlled by the pathologist in the US or UK is sheer lie and stupidity
The Royal college of pathology which I am sure you are speaking of is a birth between scientist and doctors to throw competent laboratory consultant
Who is a pathologist?
I won't answer that as I am sure Google will cure your dumbness
About MLSD
MLSD was started in the US and is already in Ghana
Why not Nigeria?
Do you know in developed countries we have consultant and specialist nurse who can perform surgery

I don't want to screw you
I will advise you to get admission into the university first even though it's botany
Then you can be qualified to talk to professionals

I have a lot to tell you
But I am not a keyboard warrior
I am kindly waiting for your tag

But please don't mention veterinary medicine even in same line with biochemistry not to talk of health sciences

You can talk after gaining admission and in same line with botany
Your ignorance sucks big time bro
You are just a product of ignorance
Can't you see how normal people avoided talking in your thread
It simply shows your write-up was wack and baseless

I can't allow any of my person to study that God forsaken course called veterinary medicine

Bro if I don't know what am saying, I would have shut up.... I am quite surrounded by a lot of firms seeking personel. An not been to UK or USA to know their job earnings... But you see this nails and jobs. I know too much cuz I run a job 9jc, 00agency...

Two years ago.. I went on a search to get a radiographer : posted on all their regional group search.. We got calls every hour, but all of them are all employed.. OK , we offered to pay 120k and non accepted saying they can change only at above 150k..i quickly researched and found that they all earn above at least 130k even those in the remotest villages..

Taking about pharmacist digressing to trade. Radiographers also open up labs... And make serious money... My guy who is a radiographer and who owned a lab.. Earns over two million monthly from running the lab. Again he left to the UK. Where his monthly income in Maura is about 3million monthly

.i sit know where u got all ur stats.. But radiography is a more profitable course than pharmacy

What do you think am saying b4...?

Am into the medical lab line. No radiographer earns below 100k. Even in the most local lab....

Check from today

bigpicture001:
Radiography is oil company

descarado:

Is that what you are trained to do?
To sell your licence to the highest bidder?

Apart from but vit c and para, what can pharmacists in Nigeria produce.
Very dead profession.

Let me search for the article released not long ago on how to revive naija pharm image and profession.


You are a lady pharm, you probably end up with shop where half is provision store and half imported drugs.

Most chemist owners are better at the drug prescription sef.

MrEgghead:
What do you know about prescription? you think it's by those trial and error you're doing...What do you know about the pathophysiology of disease you're prescribing drugs for? Aunty rest.

sakaguchi:
To be honest with you, it's pharmacy.

There is this logic of being your own master. In any hospital, the head of pharmacy department and the top dogs in the department are all pharmacists.
In same hospitals, the head of radiology department are strickly doctors called radiologist. Radiographers are not radiologists. Radiographers expose pateotns to radiation of xrays, CT scan, MRI etc and that's where their work ends. This images are by themselves useless for clinical practice unless they are interpreted to help make a diagnosis. Only radiologist are entitled to interpret radiographic images. As a radiographer, you'll be under the shadow of a radiologist for life. Even if you venture into private practice, no doctor worth their name will send patients to you and rely on your interpretation. Whatever a radiographer knows about image interpretation, the average doctor knows and know even more. For more complex image studies, input of specialist doctors called radiologsts are sorted so as a radiographer, you'll still be under the shadow of the radiologists even in private practice.

If working for people is your thing, go for radiography.
If being your own boss is the idea. Go for pharmacy. Both pays. Some radiographers earn more than some pharmacst and some pharmacists earn more than some radiographeras it will profit you to know that the average pharmacist earns more than the average radiographer both in private and government agencies.

Those who enjoy radiology are the doctors called radiologist.

I hope this helps

GeneralPula:
Good one..

To think that when they first started, Nigerians were hating on them, saying nah trash dem dey do..

Those hating on dem might be somewhere struggling for subscription money, while them boys have gone far..

SIRTee15:


Are u a doctor? I'll be very surprised if u are one, bcoz u are just too ignorant.

CS can be an emergency...there may be no time for any referral. Any doctor esp those working in rural areas should be able to perform CS....So long as they've been trained n competent to do it.

Family medicine training in nigeria is designed to fill in for the acute shortage of specialist doctors in nigeria.
They spend 1 yr of their training in a general hospital where they learn to perform most common surgeries encountered in general practice including CS.
They are expected to be competent in procedures like CS, hernia repair, appendectomy, excision of soft tissues etc b4 they are deemed certified.

Nobody is asking to copy advanced countries healthcare system because nigeria don't even have what it takes to do that.
Just treat people fair n just, including paying house officers. That's not too much to ask.

HBB1:



Are Family Physicians trained to do Cesareans?

Why don't you stick to what you know?

...and yes, I will call a CS common.

Ethiopia has an initiative where Nurses are trained to repair Vaginal Fistula.
The first woman trained was not even learned-- she was an illiterate trained by white missionaries and she trained thousands in her life Time.

Mozambique has Nurses performing Cesareans and they have halved their maternal mortality rates.


In Ghana, you won't be signed off as a house officer without 10 Cesareans.

In Medical School you are even supposed to take 10 vagunal deliveries or you won't get signed off.

Bottom line is training.

If you are trained to do something, why not?

About complications, it can happen to anybody at anytime.

I have seen old seasoned gynaes have complications, so what?

You are not a Docotor, not in the health sector and you obviously no nothing about it!

To think you believe interns only answer questions and observe...

You need to travel.

HBB1:



What is the Big deal in a CS?

You should learn about the South African model.

They do youth service too, where you are flung to the ends of the country and might be the only Doctor for miles...

During your 2 years housemanship, you should have learnt enough to be able to perform spinal anaesthesia and cut someone open for surgery.

Family medicine training in Nigeria is quite extensive and they are trained to do surgeries-- you are a Generalist.

Many Private Hospital operators however don't do this training which makes their services substandard

clockwisereport:
Somebody should please help me the answers to these questions.

What is the difference between Botany or Plant Science and Crop Science?

Again, what is the difference between Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine?

HBB1:



In Nigeria, General Practitioners ( Family Medicine Specialists) are trained to do some Surgeries, including Herniorrhaphies.

Zoe99:
Any doctor can do basic surgeries like CS,appendicectomy,etc whether they're specialists in that area or not.How do you think doctors who have private clinics cope?

Zoe99:
Any doctor with an MBBS degree can do a surgery.

ofiko123:
Law... that is what I am guessing...

seunH:
Sorry please Iet's get something right here, there is a difference between when students voluntarily withdraw their studentship based on many reasons like lack of interest, poor grades, better alternatives etc and when a student is actually FORCED to withdraw from the faculty, I'll like us to take note. In Nigeria only few faculties forcefully withdraw their students from their faculties example is Dentistry, Vet med, Human med and some few others. Majority of the other faculties run a course unit system where you are allowed to carryover, have extra year etc provided your GP is not less than 1 point, even with that, you'll be on probation. So let's try and put thing in proper perspective, I'm seeing almost all the courses in Nigeria on this thread and it's like some people are using it as a status quo to boost their courses status. Let me give you an instance, most Anatomy students wanted to study Mbbs, even after offered admission, most will still write another jamb to go to other faculties esp to Human medicine. Now if we have about 80 Anatomy students in 100 level and by 400 level they have reduced to 30 which many may be due to voluntary migration to other faculties, it doesn't necessarily mean the department is harsh!!!!!
