Nigerians have no idea how expensive healthcare really is.
Surgeon's in the USA and Europe are operating with million dollar equipment, using robots, augmented reality and many more both in diagnostic, treatment and surgery.
Their neurosurgeons use advanced microscopes that paint tumor in fluorescent light, differentiating it from normal brain tissue.
Skull base Surgeons operate with neuronavigation that maps out where pathology is in 3d with 0.1mm accuracy.
They use ultrasonic aspirator that's more expensive than your entire theater set-up in Nigeria.
Their open heart surgeons operate on beating heart by using stabilisers.
In China, surgeons in provinces 100s of kilometres away performs complex procedure in another facility in real time.
But in Nigeria, all the praise belongs to our fellow robin hood doctors.
They'll do opthalmic and Neurosurgery with ordinary eye or small loupes.
Do advancements flaps with sheer force of will.
Do spine surgery without C-arm. What's c-arm?
Package patient that needs CABG with double antiplatelet and ogbonge statins.
Not that any of this is wrong.
It's simply necessary in our circumstance.
If our chiefs wait for proper equipment to be made available, half of Nigeria will die.
Healthcare as a whole is ridiculously expensive and there's just no way around it.
The good news is that many of our patients survive and it's all because of our robin hoods.
I pray we keep having these robin hood doctors.
Because these new age of doctors no really send like that.
And that raises the question, how long can we keep practicing at this level of 1923 medicine?
Alhamdulillah, I made it through.
This is more than just a picture,
itโs a quiet promise kept, a journey fulfilled, and a heart full of gratitude.

Doctors sometimes look calm during emergencies.
But inside their minds, hundreds of clinical possibilities are racing at once.
Calmness in medicine is trained chaos management.

. @Bybit_Official please consider reducing the P2P minimum to at least $1.5 so small holders like me can trade.
