13

New doctors came to our hospital, old ones left, it is october where new resedent doctors start their career in different specialities and old ones got their degrees and leave....this time the coming doctors are more than the leaving....so hospital need more rooms for doctors on call...you know what...the first thing the managers did was to tell the new doctors that they will have a room...that room was the psychiatrist on call room....the cheif resedent doctor came to me and asked me whether their is a psychiatrist on call daily, I was surprised, I asked him: What do you think?...He start to be defensive and asked me: what do you mean? I told him: You are the chief resedent doctor..what do you think? is there a resedent doctor in psychiatry in the hospital you are chief in it?.....He found himself in a situation that no more denial can help....he murmured things....then left.....

Why they are like that? Do they think there is no emergency in psychiatry? do i need to send them an aggitated patient at night to be violent on them and break things around and insult them like some patient do to me frequently to feel that my existence in useful?....

You know what..my room number is 13.....


When I go back to my room from my work I don't want to hear too much sounds....so i draw this sign on my door....

Oh, Dear Dr. Al Bedri, i'm so sorry that happened to you...of course there must be a psychiatrist on call, i hate it when other (so called) physicans treat psychiatrists and psychiatry like it is not "real medicine" grrrrr...that chief resident made me come out of my self-imposed hiding from commenting (a way of punishing my self for too much food, guilt over my husband, etc, i know, it's weird, but i bet your being a psychiatrist, a REAL doctor, will understand such behavior). His attutude really makes me angry (the chief). Thank you for helping me to break out of my shell and thank you for a most wonderful blog, t PS My employee number at work is....13!!
