Dear patient



Praised belong to Allah swt.

First of all i would like to wish you happy new year 2016!
I hope everyone have a clear vision and mission for this upcoming year.

Im in my second week of medical posting currently
Theres nothing much different than my year 4 posting except for new supervisor and some new posting which is hematological ward posting.

So far, i am still trying my best to catch-up myself with all the disease seen in the ward.
Final year is no joke
People already started to visualize us as a doctor
And we try our best to potray to the patients and our lecturers that we are capable of being a 'safe doctor'.
Sometimes, at some point in our life we felt exhausted and frustrated with ourselves. My lecturer told me, we are not a robot. We also a human, just like you. We have emotion, and it is normal to feel that way. Sometimes, we need a break to sort things out and to get ourselves back together. 

And it is dangerous to not having any feeling or emotion, as you need it to feel empathy towards your patient and love towards your job. So, cry if you lost your patient, laugh if you feel its funny, fight if you think its necessary for your patient's wellbeing and rest if you feel you had reach your limit.

As for me, medical posting is challenging in a way of keeping myself continuously revising all the important common diseases and its management. Yes, it is challenging to remember all of it. Sometimes, i feel like my brain exploding with all of this info's and need to vomit it all back to relieved the loads. 

Dear patient,
Being a doctor is not easy..
This journey never been easy..

Let me tell you how the journey be like...

We were told to 'do no harm' to you
We were told to do 'justice' to you
We hold to this oath & principle in our heart
Treating you would be like treating our family members
So, losing you would also be like losing to our own family members
In order to not losing lives in our hand
We need to burn midnight oil to make sure we are equipped with adequate knowledge 
For that took us to sacrifice a lot of things in our life
Relationships, family, hobby, rest, eating and even a time for ourself

So dear patient,
A sense of gratitude from you
Will be more than enough for us
To feel good about ourselves and to lift our spirit back during our bad days
And what makes us more happy is..
Seeing you being able to smile again
And waiving to us saying goodbye leaving us in a good condition.
That is all we need..
