Art of dissing specialities

Hey all ,
Lets not waste time and start talking about this interesting topic. This is something I am guilty of and would want to change in me.

The art of dissing certain professions starts from home where as kids you're told doctors and engineers are to be looked up and other professionals are just supporting caste of the movie called society.This continues where your professors of your specialty either be in doctors or engineers tell you that how superior they are or others .Its good in a way to have self-awareness but I wonder putting others down or making their job seem trivial makes one superior.

 Step 2: You walk from medical school to the specialists post where you see your heads and consultants dissing other specialties .Like a cardiologist dissing out the gastroenterologist, physician dissing a surgeon, critical care dissing emergency physician so this is pretty engrained.
As doctors most of us tend to have alpha personalities so the sense of validation from the society, validation from our own self , the sense of validation that we are contributing an important part to the society is there...

However , you don't understand how dissing other specialties makes one more important.

I have an interesting quote that it's not a pie that everybody that one has to get the biggest one . It could just be water , sufficient enough that everybody gets a glass full of it . everybody is role is quite important like my swiggy provider , Uber app developer ,my entertainer on Instagram ,my content creator on YouTube , my HR . Everybody is playing a significant role in my life.

 I mean I can break it into many important pieces and be still unsure of which part is more important so that I still fail to understand that of dissing specialties, it's so deep rooted starting from our professors ... I guess we're taught by their professors who are otherwise told by their professors that how important their role is over certain other specialities , that probably might have started with them trying to prove their mettle.

Experience Based Co Design : BCT Series XXIX

  "Experience-Based Co-Design" we have all witnessed its essence unknowingly . My family home is the example I can reflect on .Growing up I didn't like how my house was designed. We (the whole extended family) wanted my dad to sell the house . Dad let his architect friend design our house and would not sell his house (for obvious reasons!). Mum had to balance out the situation so she decided to make small changes. So, it was one change idea each year .She would talk to us individually and listen to our perspective and review her sphere of influence and the impact /utility the idea had.For my siblings the colors were not welcoming while I pointed the flooring. Mum wanted the stairs to be personalised. My grandparents wanted certain conveniences around the toilets. It took her about 4-5 years to make the house a home that was acceptable . From color preferences to spatial arrangements, each family member contributed insights. The lovely thing about it was , the keystakehold...

" Consulting a psychiatrist would be a question mark on my spirituality " Said the patient.

Hello everybody  I hope everybody is safe and healthy. it's been a while that I've been receiving lot of patients in the emergency with mental illness ,thought of sharing an incident of its kind. Not sure if its the awareness of mental health these days or the pandemic, I am developing keen interest in patients with mental illness .I try to take an extra effort to make them feel comfortable and try to create an insight of what is happening and offer them options of what all can be done.  Since this it seems like a step towards patient care , I thought I'd share it here as well. This would probably not be the best approach but I welcome any type of constructive criticism , additions or subtraction to my approach because end of the day we are here for best patient care.

MRCEM OSCE preparation and resources

Hello people Since I have cleared my OSCE in one go, I feel it's my duty to journal what all I have done to make it work.(humble brag).Thanks to ChatGPT for helping me pile up some humble generic sentence to make this blog wholesome.(Just kidding). The MRCEM OSCE exam is an integral part of the qualification which tests the clinical and communication skills of candidates. For Indian students pursuing this qualification, preparing for the MRCEM OSCE exam may seem daunting. However, with a few tips that helped me sail through fine. The thing that helped me the most is acclimatizing myself to the UK Clinical Setting Before appearing for the MRCEM OSCE exam, it is imperative for Indian students to understand the clinical setting in the UK. Sometimes , all they want to see is how you behave , your body language, your tone , and your organising skills. Diagnosis is not a critical thing here. You will not fail if you get a wrong diagnosis provided that you have done it systematically. So ...
