I have been very quiet since I posted the 2 most popular postings on the 7th and 8th of September 2010. My posting on “General Misconception of being a doctor Part 1 and 2” attracted almost 10 000 visitors! I also had many comments for the above 2 postings , almost all supporting what I have said. Interestingly, I also had some foreign doctors from US and UK commenting on my post. I also realised many medical students who commented on my post, agree that they have chosen the wrong field!
I have been reading all the comments and to answer some of the querries, I will be posting few more articles soon, especially on the housemanship and postgraduate training in Malaysia. I will not talk on the quality of doctors being produced nowadays as I have written enough about it in my MMA articles, some even way back in 2006! Yes, I did predict the current situation more than 5 years ago. I also believe that my prediction for the coming future will also come true someday, as I have written in my blog.
I have been quite busy lately and thus did not have enough time to write the continuation. However, I should be posting a new article within the next 2-3 days.
Dr. Pagalavan, nice articles on the above 2 posts. Enjoy reading what you have written. I still believe in quality over quantity. Even there are so many doctors, but I will not give up in improving myself, make a difference from the other normal colleagues. I hope one day, we can go back into the right track. Keep it up !
