What protocol did he break for CNAs sake to improve the "patient outcome" that she should be so grateful to him for that's enough to ignore alleged medical negligence leading to the death of her child? I have been seeing a lot of this "missing the point", so come and help me answer this.
Dozman@__dozman

I don't know why, but everyone is missing the point. HCWs break protocol many a time, a decision to improve patient outcomes, at the risk of their license. The "patients are not your friends" is simply a call to follow protocol, even if it means impaired health outcomes.

If you’re an orthopedic surgeon, you have no business performing a caesarean section, even if you’re very good at it. The day anything goes wrong, even if the procedure was done perfectly, the first question will be: why is an orthopedic surgeon operating on a pregnant woman? Your patient will drag you until you lose your license. Don’t sacrifice your license for a failed system. The moment a patient needs a specialist, even if you think you can handle it, write that consult and refer immediately to the appropriate specialist. Save yourself. Save your license.

Even if you’re stupid , why bring your stupidity to public glare A doctor is suspended for negligence, negligence that led to the loss of a life and your next best reaction is to say that there are not a lot of his kind of specialists in the country Meaning what exactly?

You really think the child that died is a piece of wood or some inanimate object ? Negligence was proven and you’re talking about one of the few interventional cardiologists in the country …
Dr. Afo@TheDrAfolarin

As dem don suspend One for the few interventional cardiologists that we have in the country. This is a reminder. PATIENTS ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND PATIENTS ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND PATIENTS ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND Do not cut corners or skip protocol while trying to discharge your duties. They'll roast you and take away your license that took you 15yrs to attain. Medicine is not any foolish calling. It's a job. That's all it is. Do it to the letter and go home. You first! Always!

I think this take misses the bigger picture and may represent an error when we talk about “value” in medicine. I’m not a Community Physician but I know enough to say that it isn’t for “soft” doctors. It’s for doctors who are interested in systems, populations, prevention, policy, equity, and impact at scale. Different skill set, different arena, not lesser. The idea that “other doctors won’t rate you” is also not really true in practice. If you choose a specialty because of “prestige” alone, you’re doing yourself a disservice. You’re not being true to yourself . Most clinicians who have worked through COVID, outbreaks, health system failures, or policy bottlenecks deeply respect public health physicians. You may not be admired for procedures, but you’re relied on for decisions that affect thousands to millions of lives. That’s a different kind of respect, not a lower one. Not all patients seek out community physicians because the “patient” is often the population, the system, or the government. Your clinic is society itself. That’s still real medicine. On money and prestige: many public health physicians do very well in global health, consulting, NGOs, policy, academia, leadership roles, and international organisations. The ceiling just looks different. They are different forms of power in medicine. No specialty is inherently superior. They just optimise for different definitions of success. Community medicine isn’t “soft”. It’s upstream. And upstream work is often the hardest, most invisible, and most consequential work in healthcare. I hope your view change with time. Peace!
Dr. Afo@TheDrAfolarin

I'm going to be very blunt with you, community medicine is for a very specific group of doctors. If you seek money, respect, academic prestige and hands on, it's not for you. It's for those soft doctors that want stability above all. Patients don't seek out community physicians and other doctors don't rate you. What you get when you finish is a government job and where you can get rich is through NGO/Government contracts and healthcare politics. Don't do community medicine because it's soft, only do it because you understand what you're getting into.

The relationship between Nigerians abroad and those back home can honestly be confusing sometimes. When I posted how my 2 hours pay is equivalent to that of a Nigerian Dr y'all carried a hammer to a spoon fight 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Post that I saw and reposted 😂😂 The moment you share something positive about life abroad, people say you’re bragging. The moment you talk about the struggles,bills, taxes, extra shifts, credit cards people say you’re lying or that you should just come back home. One day you’re told you’re enjoying and forming big boy/girl overseas. Next day, you’re reminded how all your money supposedly disappears into rent and taxes. When you say life abroad is tough, people say you’re exaggerating. When you say the opportunities are better, they say you’re showing off. If you advise people not to rush abroad, they ask why you’re still there. If you encourage them to try, they ask if everyone must travel out. So which way exactly my country people? 😄 Truth is, life whether abroad or home has both opportunities and challenges. At the end of the day, everyone is just trying to survive and do better for themselves and their families. Peace to everyone, wherever you are hustling from. ✌️ #NurseJoy

For those of you Nigerian Dr who look down on Nurses just know that as a Registered Nurse , 2 hours is only what it takes me to earn what a Nigerian Doctor will earn in one month !!! No long epistle, just a reminder that sometimes your destiny is heavily tied to your location. Same hard work. Same intelligence. Completely different reward. If life gives you the opportunity to grow, relocate, or level up… take it. Comfort zones rarely change bank accounts. Respect to every professional grinding back home, but never apologize for choosing a life that expands you. 👌✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️ #viralvideoシfyp #fypviralシ #HealthcareCareers

NHS parking is the ghetto. Each time I have to drive round & round before finding a space to park, I think of @StarDocOfficial and his designated doctors' parking space in Western Australia. If I run to Oz now, shebi "NHS parking is hard" is a reasonable reason.

See dem racists throwing all forms of emboli in the QTs🤣 Congratulations to the lastest Nigerian-Australian family! If e easy, run am. If e sure for you, run am.
Anthony Albanese@AlboMP

Welcoming new citizens into the Australian family is one of the most meaningful ways to mark Australia Day. Today I met Michael Odutola and his family. Michael came to Australia to contribute to cancer research, and his work is already helping improve lives across our community. Families like the Odutolas are part of what makes Australia strong, diverse and full of possibility. Congratulations, and welcome home.
