I have been working as a Physiotherapist for past 2 years.... During my clinical stint, I have great opportunities to meet many good friends, and also make many enemies as well... I loved my work... I feel satisfied when my patients recover from zero to hero... I feel happy for my patients and also for myself when I know my profession can make a difference in a person's life after their trauma or when they are in the worst stage of their life...
But things sometimes are not as flowery as is in drama... Few days ago, for the first time I felt so insulted as a Physiotherapist because a houseman talked to me as though I'm idiot when I suggested to her that I can't help a patient because this patient may suffer from two different conditions. The houseman didn't even look at me when I talk to her, she just glanced at me and when I approached her. And looked back to her BHT...
Here is the conversation...
Me: Excuse me doctor, I'm having problem to help this patient because I suspect him suffer from xxx condition. Maybe you can refer him to xxx department for his condition to rule out..
Still looking at her bht.....
Idiot HO: So u want me to refer to xxx department???(as though I overrule her profession)
Me looking at her ugly head cause she is not looking at me...
Me: is not wat I want, I just suggest cause his giddiness is unusual....
Idiot HO: His giddiness is because of his Parkinsonism... (in a annoyed tone)
Still not looking at me....
Me: &2)&))* ):?;7&&:)/?'ak
Well, I do not mind if I gave a wrong suggestion or maybe u think I just been nosy. I believe in interdisciplinary effort when I treat patients. So, if you think I make a wrong assumption, look at me, talk to me nicely and explain to me that I worry too much lo!!! But this is the other way round!!! You look at the wall, I looked at your ugly hair and right ear... And your voice is like so not bloody happy with my question!!! What the heck!!! Nobody point the gun to u and force u to take medicine... At least u can be nice to people... That day I really felt the hurt and degradeness shown by this particular HO!!!!!
