My clinic come one mopexer after asking for so long 4 months later quit becuase he learn the ropes liao
Resident pipeline also very chiu. Drop out rates 20 to 30 percent
The remainder 40 percent fail exams
Those that pass half straight go private.
100 fam med ressie per batch left 30 behind in ops and that cos thet got bond
Unofficially half will leave once bond up and saved up to open clinic or girls claimed all the maternity or complet family.
Left 10 just nice become your clinic deputy director or director lo
But they direct who I also dunno. Everyone leaving and no core workforce
Maybe become a locum workforce

Future of primary care yo!
I want to stay and work but also sian
As if patient not complicated enough now have to healthier sg, have to recruit p tech, have recruit Tele, have to recruit for research
Promise me pay rise make me wait few months still dun give
Maybe see amt already become the final insult
Turn locum better. Can 4 day work week myself.
Since I work v hard also cannot stay landed or drive mercedes with Coe at 130k
What for work so hard
Lie flat..chill with 4 day locum no responsibility kind of job each month 10 to 12k also not bad

Lol, typical polyclinic. A lot of work but super useless work.

Polyclinic should not be recruiting for HSG now because the aim is to decant chronics out to GPs. If OPS recruits everybody then who is going out to GPs? End up more work for everyone again.

PTEC is really very lame, tech for the sake of tech.
Just tell the patient / caregiver to control BP below target and record it down. Not difficult.
If high then increase meds.

Do all these fancy things but cannot get the basics right.
Cannot increase pay and retain manpower.
Good luck to all those left in hell hole OPS.

How they want us to see chronics , sort out the acute issues of the chronics and then do healthier sg on top of it in 5 mins ? Why other cluster can OTOT see 15 mins . Is unfair max

Quit whining. Just quit.
Let the polyclinic heads run the clinic themselves

Do you think building more polyclinic will help with the load in each ops?

They are building more
But who is manning them?
U need to build a core group of 10 to 15 good FP to anchor the clinic
Cannot be reward those few that have potential to be head
or directors only and then ignore the rest
U train generals but all your foot soilders leave or morale low how u fight a war
Hire mecenaries u ok for a while but long term u gg.
10 years we took in temp reg doctor from unrecognised uni from India, Philippines and now we still suffering the consequence of it. They remain a big drag on the system.

All that talk about importance of primary care being the backbone
Hello this backbone now is osteoporotic
The quality of private land gp dun say, all your well trained m.meder in ops jaded and sian liao
I believe in my skillset to manage multi-morbid patient
But very chuan lei
Some patient got fatty liver, got poor DM, got CKD and obese
Yes management like to say just focus on 1 or 2 and leave the rest to next consult
Hello...my peenoy rp or low quality gdfmers can't do sheet tbh.
Continue medicine see 12 weeks is all they do...no wonder can see fast
Anaemia in 70 year old male start iron tablet, CKD no workup, transaminitis repeat lft
Sigh.
Everytime I see such cases my heart sank a bit for my patient who have the bad luck.
I also want to stay and help patient
But system not rewarding me and infact penalising me becuase I'm slower but thorough
Now still throw healthier sg on me
Tell me got increment, wait 2 months no sound no colour

Aiya. Sua la. Go private better.
Pay higher if I work for it. If want slack also got 10k easily.
Patient nicer
Cases simpler
My own patient I own them and not inherit shoddy work from inept juniors

OPS will not reward you for seeing patients properly.
Which is why everyone just does a **** job at it and passes the buck around leaving the patients clueless.
As I said, no point launching all the fancy programmes and infrastructure what not when the basics can’t even be gotten right.

If the management truly wants OPS to continue in this current state, then they should just let it fully be run by MOPEX, with one MMeder as head.
Everybody just anyhow see patients, 3-5 min per patient to clear KPI.

Those who see the light should just leave ASAP and let OPS devolve back into the 1980s when it’s run by crappy doctors and MOPEX.
