🏥The Work Medical Interns do is immense. I am so proud of the team under my Supervision. Diligence, Hardwork & compassion.
🫡I was thrilled today that Dr. Philomena Anzo donated her blood to save the life of a patient in ICU with Hb of 2g/dl.
Whatever you do prioritize Interns.

Instead of using the silent treatment, you can tell your partner:

“I know my being quiet is not fair to you, I’m hurt/confused and trying to sort my feelings. I may need some space, I don't know when I'll be ready to talk"

Stop manipulating people with the silent treatment

SURGERY FOR OBESITY

As a doctor I often encounter patients who have struggled with their weight for years and have exhausted various non-surgical interventions.

In such cases, surgical options can provide an effective and lasting solution.

In this thread, I'll discuss some of the surgical options available for treating obesity.

[Dr. Strange🧝🏾‍♂️ 🇺🇬 @RL_256]

I know our health centers are in sorry states but let’s talk about quack doctor with absolutely no medical knowledge; they’re worse to patients than the diseases and @MinofHealthUG has failed to curb these illegal ‘practioners’ misleading people.
