it sucks big time being in the final med and not being taken seriously. i wouldn't have whine that much should it happen during the earlier clinical years. initially i really thought that things would've been better, a refreshing change from the tedious and lengthy hours of waiting and doing nothing. make no mistake about this, but i'm not bitching about my consultant. as busy as he is saving lives, i just wish that he allocates more time to teach, encourage our participation, listen to what we say and give constructive criticism on our performances. his feedback is crucial at this stage. given the current circumstances, i don't anticipate that much but the least that he can do within the immediate time frame is to acknowledge my presence.... that's all.
