not 80 hours. more like 90-100+ hours/week for junior doctors, sometimes more
1 call alone (30++ hours) is 2/3 of the number of hours you work in a week
dont come

I might save the money or take an exchange somewhere else.
Thank you for your advice... So it is really that bad?

How long are you a "junior doctor" and have to work so many hours?

Why haven't adopted the way of working as western doctors? It is a rich country and could do that.
