Last few days ago, our hospital has been in the hot seat for most local newspapers. The reason being, the husband of a deceased patient went on to the local politician and started whining his version of story. I had reliable information from my resident officers saying that their family (with the in-laws) had been in a state of discordance. And the act of going on to make a public complain might be a manifestation of that discordance.To be honest, I don't really know if that's true. But one thing for sure, the local politicians sure gonna love this to the max, much for their own publicity.
Well, that's the typical local political climate. Whenever election is near, the politicians will line up with a hope to appear more often in the headline of newspapers. Sometimes, things might be trivial, nonetheless, they would not hesitate to go to the extra mile for publicity.
I think most of the time, we doctors are in the hot seat of being easily victimised.
After all, doctors only form the minority of the votes. Pathetic?
