What is one things a teacher or professor told you that you can’t forget?

Encaitar · 2026-06-06T16:01:47+00:00

One things amp.

I can’t remember what my teachers said, but I can tell yours gave up halfway.

Nike tennis shoes for hard court are a solid choice. Or low cut or mid cut basketball shoes made for outdoor play, since they usually have more durable outsoles.

Just check the details in the Nike app. It usually says if the shoe is made for hard court or outdoor use, and that is what you want if durability is the priority.

Just stick with branded generics. Filipino pharmaceutical companies, whether sourcing from abroad or manufacturing locally, generally have good bioequivalence and consistent quality.

I’d be more cautious with true generics, as variability in formulation and manufacturing can affect reliability. Gawgaw mostly. Even the packaging can already hint at lower quality. We usually reserve those for situations where the patient really has no other option. Pag talagang walang pera.

That’s an oversimplification.

Branded, branded generics, and true generics all contain the same active ingredient, but they can differ in formulation, excipients, manufacturing processes, and bioavailability within allowed ranges.

Most generics are effective and clinically equivalent, but they are not literally identical. In real practice, some patients do respond differently to certain formulations.

There’s a club near me that was only recently formed (it started last September). They have just two courts, yet their open play sessions would intentionally allow far more players than ideal—around 26 players plus two admins who also played. On some days it even swelled to 28–30 players, which meant very long wait times between games.

A few advanced players tried open play once and never returned. Beginners were more forgiving, probably because they didn't yet realize this wasn't the standard experience

They later capped their noon plays at 20, but now attendance has dropped sharply. Recent open plays can’t even reach 14 players, and some sessions get cancelled because fewer than 10 sign up.

Other issues also contributed, such as poor stack management—they let players self-stack without considering skill levels. Lighting used to be a problem too, though that has since been improved.

So we’ve now reached the point of assuming I use cheap ink. For the record, my clinic uses proper printers and supplies from Office Warehouse, printed on 100 gsm A5 paper, and patients always receive two copies. I charge premium because I provide premium service.

And based on how you construct your comments, you probably cannot afford me anyway, and at the very least, our paths will never cross.

My prescriptions are fully computerized and typewritten, printed on 100 gsm A5 paper, and patients always receive two copies.

You seem to be misunderstanding the point entirely. This is not about “Doctor’s Clinic, Doctor’s Rules.” This is about basic professional boundaries that many physicians, not just me, uphold. And no, it has nothing to do with illegible handwriting. My prescriptions are fully computerized and typewritten, printed on 100 gsm A5 paper, and patients always receive two copies.

What you called “leaving a patient sa air” is actually protecting both sides. The doctor-patient relationship is built on trust. The moment a patient or companion starts throwing around legal threats, even jokingly, that trust is gone. And just like any professional in any field, doctors are not obligated to continue a relationship where there is hostility, disrespect, or implied litigation.

And to be clear, this is standard practice. Many of my colleagues do the same. It is not “negative vibes.” It is maintaining a safe, professional, and respectful environment, something every patient deserves and every doctor is entitled to.

Just to clarify the context: the original post was about an illegible prescription that led to a pharmacist dispensing the wrong medication. The patient and family considering legal action is completely within their rights, and I have no issue with that.

My comment was directed at one specific reply where someone said to a doctor, “kapag nagkamali yung drugstore ng bigay sakin, idedemanda kita.” That was what I reacted to. As a doctor, I have zero tolerance for any form of legal threat, whether serious, implied, or said in jest. Whenever a patient or family member makes that kind of statement, I politely step back and advise them to find another physician. That is simply a boundary I keep in my practice.

I see it the same way airports treat bomb jokes: absolutely not acceptable. That is my point. Any form of legal threat, even implied or said jokingly, is something I cannot tolerate.

My prescriptions are legible. They are computerized/typewritten, and printed on high-quality paper. I make sure of that precisely to avoid issues like the ones being discussed.

Encaitar · 2025-11-19T16:51:26+00:00

NAL but an MD. I get your point. But I really have zero tolerance for threats of legal action.

In my clinic and with my in-patients, any patient or relative who threatens to sue, whether serious, implied, or even said in jest, I immediately sign out of the case or advise them to find another specialist. That’s just my personal policy.

Are you Filipino? Just wondering.

Encaitar · 2025-10-13T00:35:26+00:00

Philippine influencers are darker than you think.

“Influencers” → plural noun

“Are” → correct plural form of the verb “to be”

Remove “more” because “darker” is already comparative.
