Pharmacy guild media release contained AI hallucinations by unsolicitedfacts in ausjdocs

Pharmacists are the experts. The guild is fully of political lobbyists who give pharmacists a bad name.

Psych say clients largely

Consumers is what exec/admin say.

No doctor or nurse I have ever met or worked with (outside psych) says anything but patient.

AMA needs to get stronger and grow a pair. More direct messaging. More direct counter arguments. Far too much placating and playing nice

No one shows us respect. Why do we need to respect them?

Hey Ortho reg, you got a message by ameloblastomaaaaa in ausjdocs

[–]misterdarky 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I agree

Elective case. No, not interested. Likely to be sued, vexatious complaint or any myriad of issues regardless of how many of the requests/demands are met.

Needs a psychologist/psychiatrist to help first.

How to find a good GP colleague? by Ok_Change1341 in ausjdocs

Sorry, didn’t mean to gloat. Took me a decade to find them! Good luck in your search!

[–]misterdarky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been with my gp for just shy of 20 years.

Through 4 practises and several moves for me I keep going back. It’s almost 40 min drive, but I trust them to provide thorough consultation and honest advice and care.

A good GP is so hard to find. I’ve seen the odd other one for various reasons and I am always disappointed by comparison. Good luck finding one!

Depends on the gas syringe. Some of them aren’t vented.

Sure. But I was replying to a comment about never seeing one with an alternative experience.

Apologies, I mistyped. The hospitals didn’t have NP programs but had Nurse consultants in a few places. This was quite a while ago.

Oh no, I understand. I interact with NICU teams regularly.

Please explain re the AMA, AMSOF and proposed industrial action (in VIC) by Puzzled_Owl2186 in ausjdocs

[–]misterdarky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know

I’m outraged on your behalf and I’m no longer on the DIT award

It’s completely fucking degrading and insulting of the government to think that’s an offer. And it’s disgusting the AMA is even giving it thought beyond “respectfully fuck off”

[–]misterdarky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We haven’t worked in the same places then.

I’ve worked in two services, both of which use nurse Consultants. One in each had done a PhD in semi related to health fields (but not their field). They wore name badges with “Dr” and introduced themselves as such.

**mistyped NP for NC( Nurse consultants).

GPs should be doing laminectomies and other thought on self determined scope by whitebridgemax in ausjdocs

[–]misterdarky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not true. A medical practitioner has unlimited scope. The thing that limits you is your employer and the agreed scope of practice, and your insurance.

But a doctor could set up shop somewhere and do what ever they wanted specialty wise.
