Here is the reason NMA is kicking against other professionals answering doctor in the hospital. This is misleading. Physiotherapy is not a primary contact for these issues. Stop making a mockery of your profession as if they are medicine wanna bees. The other day an uninformed patient was calling... an optometrist a medical doctorshow more

Every patient eventually ends up in the consulting room or operating room or post-mortem room of a doctor, either with straightforward or complicated presentation. Which ever way, the doctor wins.

😂😂😂

All those diseases she mentioned MBBS is still the first line of call. Doctor would refer you to the others Radiographers , pharmacists, optometrists, physiotherapists

Exactly!

It’s funny how some people don’t even understand the course they read in school. And it’s usually the olodo uprising!

@plant_tree_doc That happens when jamb give you course you didn’t apply for, you go just dey confused

"Physiotherapy is not a primary contact for these issues..." You think we are still in 1920? Oga go and sit down

I genuinely don’t understand why this is even an issue. Every member of the healthcare team has a distinct role, and each profession brings its own expertise and value. We all stand out in different ways, and that’s what makes a strong healthcare team. It’s honestly sad to see some people feel so insecure and not confident about their own profession. Instead of recognising and taking pride in the unique contribution they bring, they want to be called doctors by force. Fo those that fall into this category, all the best.😩

But this video has nothing to do with whoever is called a doctor in the hospital. The girl is just ignorant and should be called out for it.

Has to do with people understanding their job description

Which is completely different from your caption of the video.

An optometrist is an eye doctor An optamologist is a medical doctor who specialises in eye surgery

How first point of contact for stroke be Physiotherapist? For patient wey no day clinically stable Pour me liquor! 😅

In most of the illness displayed , every member of the health care team has a role to play. Doctor presents a diagnosis and draws up a treatment plan, that involves a physio where necessary, a nurse to provide care, a pharmacist to provide drug therapy and counseling.. I work in

I thinks doctors should stop worrying about things like this. Water will surely always find its level so it’s okay.

Na only for Nigeria X healthcare professionals and physicians they fight for titles… na wa!

Physiotherapy is the best ❤️

What qualification do Optometrists graduate with?

Stroke patient should meet Physio first😂😂😂 Ur body go tell u

Something is insanely wrong with you people’s ego.

Make everybody just dey cry. If you see a Physiotherapist being addressed as 'Doctor', you can pick up a cane and beat him since that your headache

Its now a worldwide issue.

Urinary incontinence to Physio 😂😂 stroke to physio😂 are you even serious? The other day it was Priapism, no wam😂

This social media de shock me 😂😂

The misinformation in this video eeeeh, I pity those who take it seriously….. Abeg if you get stroke go to the hospital and see a doctor first… urinary incontinence- what if it’s due to a fistula? Wetin physio go do? 🥹😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🥹🥹🥹😭

Physiotherapist can be a primary contact for Back pain , they are skilled in identifying red flags 🚩 and to timely refer when there is need for referral once the red flags & yellow flags have been identified after doing a detailed clinical evaluation and assessment.

The only reasons that your point is met with less leniency are 3 1)The Video is misleading and very wrong for comparison; it should have been “can also” 2)Physios are not first responders in “NIGERIA” 3)You are a student, so it's normal for you to chase the high of fulfilment

@EkizzyOloye I think they forget that there are physical rehabilitation Kini kan, it’s not even something for argue about …. Na follow up team them be for proper setting

@InsaneLagosian how far

Stroke to physio? First contact? Must be ment 😅😅

What is this video?

However in the video , PT ain’t the first contact in Stroke because rehabilitation can only commence after clinically stable by the medical team , so also is Urinary incontinence a red flag and needed referral just went through the whole video and apologies for my earlier remarks

Incontinence physio ke abi you wan use kegel do bladder control or wetin 🤔

Stop crashing out Go Collevt doctor from them naa if that will make you happy

You should stop making mockery of yours and be up to date in multi disciplinary team management in healthcare.

Correct the misleading information if need be but you took everything out of context fr

Physiotherapy is not the first contact for any the conditions mentioned here. A doctor filters every case, manage some, some complicated ones to specialists and makes physiotherapy referrals when appropriate.

You people are beyond dangerous. Contunue to look for likes and mislead people. Continue...

Medical doctors aren't exempted from this accusation as well. This is the same way we feel when you tried to play the roles of all professionals as well

I just see no reason they want to bear the title Dr . Well it is their own palava...if they want want Dr they should go and study medicine then ...
