hello!! glad to hear about ur life in the other hospitals! Looks like u r all adapting quite well.

We here in KK seem more free compared to u guys, since we seem to be oversaturated with HOs, though that means that u can find more people snaking around.

Here in surgery we are expected to do appendicectomies, but due to the many HOs some are graduating without even doing one! this is a bad thing as once sent out to the district if they dont know how to do appendicectomy means have to send back QEH, leading to curses from specialists, MOs and HOs who have to clerk patients.

You can do practically anything here, the natives are generally very trusting towards doctors and allow us to do anything we like on them! Procedures are at a u ask, u probably get to do basis. Heard medicine more procedures but also oversaturated that they are only doing like 4-5 calls a month!

Taking 1 week leave for convo, from 10-17th of August! see u all then!
