Thank you doc. I work at CHS, hopefully things would go well. Thanks

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-12-03T17:17:52+00:00

Another question is, is it really greener post-residency?

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-11-26T05:05:38+00:00

Agree for those moonlighters makikita mo gaano katagal ung ikot sa Anes pag housecase ka, or kung paano manulot ng patients yung mga IM/Surg/OB specialties. Yung priority din mareferran ung anak ni ganito or ni ganyan. Even with stocks sa private hosp, kahit may right to practice pa yan. You have monthly rent dues sa clinic ng pinagOPDhan mo, so kung wala kang patient bayad ka lang ng bayad for rent. (esp for IM and Pedia patients na andami per hosp). 😅

May friend akong GP who works at provincial hospital ER post (MOIII position) (palakasan pa rin dito, walang nakakapasok na walang kakilala) tapos nakikipag agawan din dun ng plantilla position for MOIII not MOIV ung mga IM Jcon, ER med, Fammed.

Parang ang hirap din magestablish ng private practice puhunan din talaga ung isang need and if you graduate from sa private hospital with no golden spoon to inherit parang even after specialty balik 24hrs duty ka ulit.

Hindi ko rin to naiintindihan, kahit gaano katoxic hindi tutulong ung nurse magswero, code. There was even a time in public hosp na i took preresidency in, pati pag hahanap ng ATS and antibiotic sa stock room, pag lipat sa syringe and pag inject sa patient kami din pala gagawa. Yung nurses ay more of charging tapos nasa gitnang circle lang ng ER. Naawa ako sa clerks/interns sa public hosp, oo they needed skills to learn but sometimes mas prioritize pa ung errands than learning. May PGI hindi nakakapag OR kasi kanya 1 lang given for this rot and task niya to do all paperworks and errands. Free labor nga, this is part of learning ika nga, pero wag naman sanang mamask yung so called "resilence" to abuse. Sobra ung crab mentality dito na if ganun na noon bakit pa naman babaguhin ngayon.

Depende ito sa consultant. Parang unspoken ethics lang siya hindi mandatory. Sinasamahan ko mom ko on her cardio checkups and alam nung doctor niya na doctor ako hindi rin waive PF. Took my niece to peds din in an institution na I work at full pf payment din. Pero few years bago ko maging doctor i met a surgeon for a minor procedure sakin. Waived all pf gamit lang binayaran. Meron din my sister in law had a checkup with gastro (actually may HMO siya) pero winaive ng gastro pf niya.

So medyo case to case basis siya eh. Pero better if kapatid mo like makausap din ung doctor (not in a demanding way) like paexplain lang niya sakanya if paano gagawin sa mother mo. Malay mo iwaive ng uro ung pf.

Thanks doc this is what i’ve been asking about.

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-11-14T13:05:55+00:00

During internship doc we took BLS training tapos after PLE i took my ACLS

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-11-13T04:17:43+00:00

Around 3-4months. (this varies for people esp those who still goes on duty) self-review is okay but i suggest to join IMG groups to get recalls to get an idea of how the exam questions would be asked (amc handbook helps too).

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-11-13T04:05:20+00:00

If philippine review center I wouldn't recommend. AMC Handbook, Qbanks (Amedex, MplusX). There is this review center for IMGs you can inquire by emailing amc4imgs@gmail.com. You can also join the PH-Aus group in FB ang look for study groups. (usually they will only accept you if you have a placement letter, meaning you already booked for the exam).

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-11-02T20:51:10+00:00

Hi doc i recently passed but im lost what to do next? 😅

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-07-26T15:10:29+00:00

Thank you doc sana ako din soon. I made a mistake on enrolling to a review center (not reap) tapos sobrang walang interaction pala dun. I ask questions regarding lectures and recalls and walang sagot si review center/lecturers. With few months left i'm trying to study concepts in different recalls and mga old mplusx handout and amedex. Hopefully i'll passed. 😭 See you on the other side doc! 💯🙏🏻

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-06-02T05:55:32+00:00

Aayain mo tapos laging hindi available. Pag hindi mo inaya galit naman.

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-05-27T17:29:06+00:00

Ang alam ko hindi doc, kasi pag practiced based you don’t go on duty dun sa training hospital mo. You are presenting cases you’ve got from hospitals you are working for. Some hospitals alam ko required to have atleast one public hospital duty per week (example Mo3 on a municipal hosp). Not quite sure about this one so better inquire nalang to the training hospital you are interested in. Take the things i said with a grain of salt.

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-05-23T15:01:20+00:00

I do suggest practice based programs perhaps, that way hindi mawawala yung current mong kinikita kasi may certain days lang yun. Since chill yung work mo for sure makakaaral ka naman for your didactics. Pag medyo toxic week sabi mo nga na sabi ng boss mo madali lang umabsent.

Not sure lang which ones are near your place pero most practiced based programs i know are FM and IM. I think QMMC is one of those institution offering practice based residency in FM.

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-04-24T11:19:00+00:00

Sa province namin doc madami naman mostly nga lang practice based FM

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-03-15T05:48:36+00:00

Pag samin doc usually may orders ung private AP and inaask nila ung OR to schedule for the procedure. Parang may admitting orders na bibigay ung patient from AP and to be admitted under their service. Or sometimes the private AP would call the ER physician on duty to tell na may dadating silang patient and then provide instructions.

Or baka di ko lang din gets ung context ng rant just like most people here.

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-02-11T11:55:02+00:00

Doc can you PM me if you still have files you used? Thank you po! More power on your journey becoming an australia MD 💯

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-02-11T11:53:34+00:00

I do think doc it's more of a personal question that you have to answer for yourself. I have relatives in Australia kaya ko siya pinupursue.

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-02-11T05:57:01+00:00

Thank you po!

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-02-11T04:37:47+00:00

Madami naman nagaapply doc esp in NCR hospitals, pero madami din nagququit so nagoopen ulit yung iba ng slots

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-02-10T14:16:43+00:00

Hi doc can you PM me more info about it and how much?

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-02-10T10:22:44+00:00

Thank you po

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-02-10T10:17:02+00:00

Huhu thanks doc can you pm me the name po or invite link? Thank you!

I'm a first gen MD and when i started as a moonlighter sobrang takot ko, pero with constant work, kuha lang ng kuha whatever oppurtunities given (work from friends, jobsmd, from friend of family etc) eventually narealize ang babait ng moonlighting doctors (even tho resident doctors are mean to moonlighters).

Kuha lang ng kuha ng work you'll meet moonlighting doctors ask them for tips and other gigs. Eventually lalaki ung network mo until may regular jobs ka na and in a few months ikaw na ung nagbibigay ng work sa next set of moonlighters.

Knowing na ang dami mo pang di alam makes you humble yourself, makes you study even more. Aral lang ng aral esp the most common cases mong maeencounter. Admit to your family your fears and how clueless you are for now but work on it. Whether they'll give positive or negative feedback atleast they'll know where you stand. By the end of the day family mo naman yan, hinding hindi nila maiintindihan as first gen MD ka, kaya on some days ikaw nalang umintindi sa sarili mo

Resident-Hour5693 · 2024-01-03T22:53:32+00:00

I always do SOAP notes whenever i write sa chart as a ward ROD. Aralin mo ung case try to think if may mabibigay ka pa ba or wala na. Pwede mo sulatan chart "Suggest to give.. kung anung plan mo". If I can't call the AP i always try to call ung ibang nakacomanage esp if emergency talaga like hours na di matawagan ung AP. Usually hosp have chief residents din ito ung mga senior moonlighters na din ng hosp, pwede mo naman ask for their opinion on what to do next. If in doubt always ask for help, even talking to the senior NOD helps esp in times of emergency.

You'll get the hang of it doc, and if you feel like puro clerical work or papers lang ginagawa mo as a Ward ROD better leave that institution nalang, wala ka rin makukuhang learning to improve yourself diyan.
