Some of the most unprofessional things you will come across on the Internet today may, unfortunately, come from doctors.

There are things you would rarely expect other professionals to publicly disclose about their work, yet they sometimes appear casually on social media from those entrusted with patient care.

How often do you see a judge publicly narrating the details of a case they presided over? How frequently does a banker take to social media to share the details of the clients or transactions they handled at work?

Yet, on X especially, it is not uncommon to see doctors share detailed accounts of their experiences in the hospital—sometimes involving patients, colleagues, difficult encounters or situations that occurred within the workplace. Often, one is left wondering: what exactly is the purpose of sharing this? What does it add?

It is therefore quite disturbing to see how frequently some healthcare professionals allow the desire for engagement, validation or attention to override discretion.

There is, of course, nothing inherently wrong with doctors being active on social media or discussing issues affecting healthcare. Doctors have every right to express their opinions, educate the public, advocate for better systems and even share experiences that contribute meaningfully to professional discourse.

The concern is where we draw the line.

When you talk more than you should, you inevitably risk disclosing information that should ordinarily remain within the bounds of professional confidentiality. And while efforts may be made to remove names and obvious identifiers, de-identification does not automatically eliminate every risk of a patient being recognised or their privacy being compromised.

For healthcare professionals, particularly doctors, patient confidentiality is not simply a rule that applies within the four walls of the hospital. It is part of the trust upon which the doctor–patient relationship is built.

This is also why professionalism cannot end when you leave the consulting room or hospital premises. How a doctor carries themselves online is also part of their professional identity. The audience may be different, but the responsibilities that come with being a healthcare professional do not disappear because the platform is X, Instagram or Facebook.

If at all something that happened at work is bothering you, the appropriate response could simply be to speak with a trusted colleague, mentor, friend or professional support system offline. Not every experience needs an audience.

Social media rewards attention, but professionalism sometimes requires restraint. Knowing what to say is important; knowing what not to say can be even more important.

Above all, it is important that a healthcare professional recognises that freedom of expression exists alongside professional responsibility, patient rights and confidentiality. If this is obvious knowledge, why then do you not apply it?

@applesss_wild Congratulations to you, Olujimi!

For the love of Anatomy, you have to get this book.

I’ve had the privilege of reviewing and reading through The Threes (3) in Human Anatomy, newly published by one of my teachers, Prof. O. Owoeye, the Head, Department of Anatomy @CoMUIIbadan, and I genuinely think Anatomy students should have this book.

What immediately stood out to me is how simple and connected the book makes Anatomy. Rather than presenting structures as isolated facts to cram, it brings related structures together in memorable patterns.

I honestly never realised there were this many “rules of 3” in Anatomy until I read this book. Using this book will help you see the relationships, not just memorise the structures.

If I were to start Anatomy all over again, this would definitely be one of the books on my daily reading desk. But even now, it is not too late. I believe that, as students doing health-related courses, Anatomy continues to follow you into Radiology, Surgery, and virtually every clinical speciality, and having a stronger grasp of the underlying anatomy can only make those subjects easier to understand.

If you are currently learning Anatomy or you simply want to strengthen the Anatomy you already know, get yourself a copy.

👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
You’ll thank me later.

As expected, the King @ibadanmedicine only had to display his crown. He has had it all along and is not just contesting for it.

@ThatCruiseMedic In medical school, you satisfy examiners and not just pass exams.

@ayomide_wonka I myself couldn't understand. They (MTN) called back the following day, trying to follow up or something.

[Babátúndé Dáúdà @BabzyOmoAgba]

@slimtessy45 🙆🏽‍♂️ Is this what you people are in school to do? 🤣

[Babátúndé Dáúdà @BabzyOmoAgba]

@MTNNG ...using their service. On a normal day, I wouldn't have paid attention if I weren't in a location with a very poor internet connection.

I stayed on my other SIM throughout yesterday, and to my surprise, MTN reported that I used 9.45GB.

This is really disturbing.
