    Incredible! a much-needed video on GP training! every video always highlights the Pros of GP training and never the cons! I personally always had a question about the general practice that how do GP's manage to examine, diagnose, and decide on the treatment plan for the patient in literally just 10mins?!!! that's like a superhuman job tbh..... home visits are not particularly "safe" or "comfortable" either ..... at the end of the day any specialty training is tough if you are not cut out for it... NOTHING IS EASY IN MEDICINE! PERIOD.

    • @DoctorNosa
      @DoctorNosa  3 роки тому +2

      Exactly!!!!! Not sure who thought it was a good idea to have such short appointment times & I completely agree regarding home visits, it’s always a bit unnerving visiting people at home...definitely! No specialty training is easy!

      @@DoctorNosa I had to study healthcare financing to realise that the 10 min appointment was designed because of the capitation payments. They literally turned the medical evaluation and anamnesis into a high production factory. And we doctors learnt to adapt to it instead of fighting against it.

    Great video Dr Nosa. GP is definitely far from an easy option. The challenges of working in community is often more complex than in Hospital. The experience of GP training will differ depending on the workload and culture at the surgery.

    Thank you Nosa for that video.
    It went against all videos that are praising GP training.
    I think GP is still a good option for some IMGs who came to UK at older age after overseas training. It allows doing special interest and I think it is better than CESR pathway.

    • @DoctorNosa
      @DoctorNosa  3 роки тому +3

      You’re welcome! Completely agree it’s still a good option especially for the flexibility. There’s also a wide scope of special interest options. Just think people should be aware what they are getting into 😃

    • @DoctorNosa
      @DoctorNosa  3 роки тому +7

      Thanks a lot! I would still recommend it but really depends on what’s important to you. More time to do other things you love as well? More time with family? Good salary equivalent and sometimes more than hospital consultants, can deal with the actual day to day job of a GP then yes! GP is likely for you!
