For the post code lottery,
I recently read this post on the Guardian by a medical student. Mr Thomas (a pseudonym) raises some interesting points but he does so with an exceptionally poor attitude. Judging by some of the other things he has written for the Guardian his attitude isn't a one off. Honestly I wonder how some of these people get into medical school in the first place, I've heard a number of stories recently at various medical schools of students with awful attitudes, in some cases directly towards patients on clinical placements. I wonder how far they have to go before they get kicked out! I know I can have an attitude at times but NEVER towards patients, it is my view that all patients are as important as each other and they should all be be important to me, or you, as a doctor. Mr Thomas however, makes a point that he doesn't care about so-and-so receiving expensive treatment as long as he gets to go home early. It might be fine as student to be able to go home early but once qualified, it should be his patients that come first, not his desire for an early finish......
