PASSION FOR A JOB

I thought a medical doctor must be present to dispense his knowledge or advicing his patient what was his problem or what medicine to dispense with. I read a certain specialist doctor only did it through telephone conversation with a houseman regarding a patient in the hospital. This isnt the way to practise. This is a failure of professional duty to a patient. (I fully agree if he can see it on camera and the houseman tells him what is the condition on the patience) It is important to feel the patient so that proper diagnosis can be given. As MOH says if a doctor has no stomach to be a doctor, he/she should leave the profession otherwise it is a disgrace to the profession. It brings me back to the Langkawi Hospital where most staff there didnt know how to use the modern machines. I was told it was kept in the store to gather dust. The MOH should spot check on the modern equipments supplied to the hospitals. It has no value when there is no trained person to handle it. Like all professions one must have the passion of the job. It is no use training and studying it for years finally felt disliking for that job........so these people should quit and go elsewhere to earn his/her living for a job he/she likes.
