Skop – who has called the supreme court’s overturning of #RoevWade “a victory in the battle but not the end of the #war” – has argued in favor of forcing #rape and #incest#victims as young as nine or 10 to carry #pregnancies to term.
Doctor mistakenly operated on a kid's tongue instead of finger.
How can a doctor commit such a mistake. It's such a traumatic experience for the kid!!!
A Doctor operated on 4-year-old patient's tongue instead of her finger in Kerala and faced public uproar due to which he got suspended.
For the past 3 nights and yesterday afternoon, I've had a nose bleed out of my right nostril. Not gushing like a hit but a trickle. Luckily, it wakes me before I make a mess of pillows/sheets. 😳
I haven't been hit in the nose. No extra exertion or exercise to cause it. No previous issues with anything else other than the usual aches and pains of being old(er).No racing hereart rate or anything I can attribute it to.
#Dinosaurs in #Doctor#Who, who would have guessed...
Lets take a look at what they show, and break down what we can see.
They say they are 150m years in the past, in #Wyoming
In this image we can clearly see a #Brachiosaurus.
As far as I know, its been found in #Colorado which is close enough for it to migrate there.
It also looks fairly accurate for a #Giraffatitan adjacent species.
Our medical centre has just put up some of its fees ($63 a visit) and introduced "Note that appointments running over time will be charged at $20 per 5 minutes, including for community services card holders. A standard appointment only allows 10 minutes of consultation and 5 minutes for your clinician to make notes. Only one item can be addressed safely in a standard consultation." (NZ$)
What sort of charges do you experience where ever you are in the world?
A #Houston#hospital is investigating whether a #doctor altered a #transplant list to make his patients ineligible for care. A disproportionate number of them have died while waiting for new #organs.
The last time my #doctor asked me what foods I ate, I responded:
"GMOs, dairy and sometimes a bit of fructose." Oh, and wheat.
I don't know why she started giggling uncontrollably. 🤔
Our #doctor who we saw today is brilliant. We were so lucky to sign up with him when our previous one retired. He is a 45 minute drive away though.
Many people in our area, including seniors, can’t find a doctor still. The ones they can find only work half a day a week.
One doctor we tried to sign up with we had to book an appointment with the receptionist, then she made us wait 45 minutes just to get a form from her while she gossiped with a colleague.
"The #Medical Sector in #Gaza is not on the verge of collapse anymore, it has already collapsed,” a #Jordanian#doctor who recently returned from Gaza said.
The doctor Mohammad Amro was volunteering in a main hospital in war torn Gaza and said,”The situation there is #catastrophic.”
Dr. Mohammad Harara, whom NBC News has been following since December, joined an estimated 1 million displaced Gazans crammed in the southern border town.
The #NHScrisis takes many forms... and #toxic management & staff relations is one (more).
In a defunded, stressed #healthservice, with staff burning out & over-worked (due to unfilled jobs), we can expect inter-personal relations to become strained (to say the least).
In this case, a #female#doctor was driven to take her own life, triggered by a delay in removing herself from a toxic work environment.
Whatever the local issues, behind this is (still) #tory wrecking!
has anybody ever received a #medical#diagnosis where the #doctor told you that your illness will likely cause a significant reduction in your #lifespan? Not that you are dying, but that you likely will not live to be an old person? How did you deal with this news? How do you handle that?
If you're a #doctor or in a related #health or #healthcare profession, consider following the group @medmastodon for news, etc.
The group could use more followers to become more effective. And use #MedMastodon in posts too for wider reach in that area. Also #IDmastodon for infectious #diseases.
This Researcher Warned of Unnecessary, Risky Vascular Procedures. She Was Called a “Nazi” and Accused of “Fratricide.”
After Dr. Caitlin Hicks and her team revealed that some #doctors appeared to be overusing lucrative vascular procedures, performing them on patients who may not have needed them, they received hostile pushback from across the profession.
If you're a #doctor who reads the Canadian Healthcare Network/#Medical Post, you might want to respond to this poll. Also, the comments are somewhat diverse.
The poll question is: Do physicians have an ethical obligation to mask up when seeing vulnerable patients?
