There are many residents/MOs who help with the load.

But all patients are walk in. First come first served. There is absolutely no appointment based system for the majority of patients.

You have to manage as best you can.

As a senior you will be in charge of trying to balance the load between rooms and doctors. If someone is behind and has a sizable queue of patients waiting you can direct patients to other doctors and then give the slower doctor a call to ask what's wrong?

Polyclinic is very very busy always.
