I regret to say, but the place where my colleagues used to go to and come back saying it is the most worthwhile posting, isnt the same anymore !

we were posted there for 3 full weeks, and i can hardly call what i did there, worthwhile!
well, some may say, we hardly stayed there and ran away mostly. but the truth is, we would have stayed if the situation there wasnt so morose!
the first week itself made a sorry impression. no one paid us any attention! roaming around during the ward rounds, not being explained anything.
not only that, it matters who your company is as well. if you are stuck with a bunch of bunkers, you cant help but bunk yourself.
yet, we did go quite a lot and mostly sat there in the OPD doing our Mudit Khannas preparing for FMGE later in september.
I totally stand for the Dermatology Clinic though! it was the only thing impressive. there were loads of patients pouring in. and you get to see a lot of diseases.
unfortunately, it so happened, i got to see only one day of it, in 3 weeks.
it isnt held every day of the week though. just wednesdays i guess.
one day, Dr bhattarai made it clear that he's not interested in teaching the interns anymore as they dont seem interested in learning. i guess he must have had a bad experience with the previous groups of interns posted there. But still, that is not something you demand! just teach man, who knows, maybe u can ignite interest in us!
he was a disappointment though, cause i only heard praises for him before going to GPH. but when i went he kept himself busy with paperwork most of the time. he is supposed to be an excellent teacher.
there are minor operations held as well, which interns sometimes get to assist in, and guess what we got to do, NADA!
we hardly knew when the OTs happened.
anyway, i dont want to rant, GPH is a good posting and i hope they get back to their previous ways. if they continue like this, i would say its a waste of 3 weeks, just have people go for the Dermat clinics.
sadly, now i have medicine posting and dr alurkar has scrapped dermat posting completely from the intern schedule for indian interns!! his reason: no one attends and you get a 1 week holiday!

so my chance of dermatology experience seems gone!
