AN OPINION THAT SHOULD BE VERY POPULAR: In-House oncall residents MUST always go home post-call.

[د.عبدالله بن صالح الطحيني @DrAltuhayniMD]

اللهم لك الحمد كما ينبغي لجلال وجهك وعظيم سلطانك، ولك الحمد على ما أنعمتَ به عليّ من تمام السعي وبلوغ المقصد.
حصلتُ بفضل الله على (الزمالة الكندية في الطب النفسي الشرعي والجنائي) من جامعة مكماستر.

كل الشكر لوطني الذي أحاطني بالدعم في مختلف محطات مسيرتي.

وأهدي هذا الإنجاز إلى والدتي حفظها الله، وإلى رفقاء الابتعاث زوجتي وابني صالح، وإلى أسرتي الكريمة جميعا، وإلى كل من دعمني خلال هذه المرحلة.

TBT
Had a great time in Toronto's Canadian Neurosurgery Rookie Camp, it was a pleasure to learn so much in so little time from the best in the field.

Also a shoutout to group 2, for assembling a halo in a timely fashion:)
Wish the rookies the best in their unfolding careers 🤍

You leave empty-handed."

at times it feels like you're dealing with enemies on day-to-day basis and that is very frustrating.
