Journalist Asks "Are Resident Doctors Really Doctors?"


A newspaper article reportedly coming from Mindanao Times' column Loud Whispers written by Fely Viloria Sicam, is getting attention on social media for seemingly maligning resident doctors who she called "fake" for being less courteous in attending to patients and for not speaking in the English language.  Many netizens, especially in the medical profession, are giving their own share of negative comments about the article and the writer herself.

Below are just some of the comments gathered from social media.

"To All my friends who are doctors, nurses, radtech and part of the medical allied professional.
Have you read this article?" - Tim Abrasax

"UP IN ARMS, medical community!!!

Does anyone know where and when this was supposedly published? While social media has its points, I believe in direct communication with someone who maligns our profession! Obviously, this so called writer does not understand our profession.... and quite frankly, reading her article, neither do her lofty thoughts of her command for English pass our standards. LOUD WHISPERS hmmph," - Ted Herbosa

"Up in arms! should not be the first nor the best response. Seek first to understand than to be understood. More of this people are just around, and more will come out. The first and the best response is internal: let's us ask ourselves, particularly as leaders in the medical community, why has it come to this?" - Gene Ramos

"I object to this lady writer's piece. Generalising is never a good thing. You only end up narrow minded or myopic in your views. A journalist is never biased. Only factual. Do not conclude that all doctors are the same and come from the same mold. Resident doctors are licensed to practice already. There are different situations for each patient and each healthcare provider. God forbid that you find yourself in dire straits and the only person who can give you the least amount of help is a resident physician. Good luck mam. Iba ung sinasabi ni senator miriam ikaw naman nakihitch ka na agad sa bandwagon. NOT GOOD" - Ana Oliveros Obrigado
