apache Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 no, my posts are just evasive and therefore seemingly nebulous as i leave out essential points because they're to do with high ranking people... so i seem to have no point except rage... because i can't talk about a 10th of what i've seen, i just like david's posts plus he's an atheis where i believe in a higer organizing conciousness.. so nope, sorry Are David and Muse the same person?

apache Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 what if you could replace a cmg... at the cost of training of 0 prior to res... we would need less med school spots... of course, i only advocate this if you're an elite candidate etc. and 99 percent of time when i refer to img's i mean foreign born img's I don't post here too often since, as an IMG, I don't have to much in common with the usual pre-meds, but in this case I just have to point out a few details from this article that are tangentially said, still are more important than the whole aticle. Here is the first one - ...this, IMO, supposes that the government would simply exploit those IMGs as qualified, still cheap workers - they wouldn't sign a LOR but a contract; if a CMG costs to the province some 150K/year and most of them would have the right to be picky with the place of practice, those poor IMGs would have to accept any conditions because this is a "favor", right - this one I wouldn't even comment, it's just an obvious fallacy, still .....hey !!! maybe I should use this link for my Personal Statement next year, when I would apply through CaRMS, what do you think.... just another hipocritical article about another hypocritical project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAMFtastic Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Ok; what is the problem here? I know there are surpluses of doctors in some regions, but most IMG doctors are going to R&R areas. I personally come from a rural area, and wouldn't mind practicing in one, but there are a lot of people who don't share that opinion. Additionally, someone mentioned a queue for IMG into this country; if we take in doctors we are facilitating well qualified professionals, something that will help our country!

Your gouvernment does have to care about you, that's why you consider yourself as part of it. Otherwise, you would be that one who would install your practice abroud, wouldn't you ?

Additionally, someone mentioned a queue for IMG into this country; if we take in doctors we are facilitating well qualified professionals, something that will help our country! The problem is when there are already thousands of IMG from India who have citizenship, have taken 4-5 Canadian Exams to prove their knowledge, apply countless times to carms, have master and PhD degrees from Canadian University, some are working as PA/Nurses/Lab Techs, etc. These Canadians weren't given this opportunity yet the system is telling them to continue taking LCMEE while we find someone in another country. This isn't about people not wanting to live in a rural area because I'm 100% sure if given the option most IMG would jump at the chance. How do I know this? Well considering that IMG sign the ROS to even apply for CARMS states they don't mind living in rural areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would they sign it if they had to spend their entire practicing years serving in a rural area? I doubt it. They know after 5 years they can venture about.

They know after 5 years they can venture about. If the opportunity was given I'm sure you would find a high percentage who would still sign it. Also we are unsure of what types of contracts these Indian doctors will be given. Now shouldn't these town be given the opportunity to have a Canadian trained (residency) IMG for 5 years than someone who has no Canadian training. Should the standards of residency and board certification only be held for big cities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronjw Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 well, but in 5 years you will got another bunch of IMGs to send there... Sure, let's play musical physicians on people. Forget continuity of care... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmorelan Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Sure, let's play musical physicians on people. Forget continuity of care... Sure but 5 years is a long time - even CMGs move around a lot or change their practise patterns. I don't think shifting family doctors every five years hurts - it actually might be better to get a fresh perspective every once and a while.

MonkeyDLuffy Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Sure, let's play musical physicians on people. Forget continuity of care... I feel that continuity of care, while important, is of lower priority than actually receiving the care they need. At least this way, the govt has another 5 years to think things through.

I am not so original as you may think, it's not me that invented that this is already in place in Canada, or you will tell me that every CMG/IMG that is working now, here and there, have taken the spot right after graduation and will happily keep it untill the retirement, and BTW, continuity of care =/= from keeping MDs in the same place with the ROS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apache Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 well, you're forgetting, the path is about 4-5 years, so by then, they are citizens, and we train too many doctors in med school here, im against p/f, far prefer american meritocratic system, so cud bottom quarter or trainees, save 50 million a year, and take the best img's.... if you want i could tell you about the saudis who pay us to train their medical grads in plastics rads only to go back to saudi maybe the indian people for cheap balance them out Even if I am an IMG (and foreign born), I think it's a stupid idea to replace those CMGs with an IMG; what would be the difference between Canada and other countries, in this case, which these IMGs come from (they are f**ked up in they own countries with salaries, nepotism, bribes,...)?

David_007 Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 You guys are analyzing it wrong... medical school training takes a very long time... not only do you need a degree but for some... it takes 5-6 years to get in... why don't we follow a European system where students can apply directly from high school... undergrad education will be taught in the first two years... (includes courses relevant to the medical field... and NO ENGLISH you're not included... F##K YOU ENGLISH F##K YOU...) and then the next 4 years we could start teaching them material taught in the first four years of medical school... If we implement this system in Saskatchewan... theres a much less chance that people will write the MCAT and go elsewhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apache Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 mmmm, you may get more yesses than you think, i suspect there would be a shift of foreign poluations rurally too tho Would they sign it if they had to spend their entire practicing years serving in a rural area?

At least this way, the govt has another 5 years to think things through. Continuity of care may not be a problem when you're healthy but how about when sick? Imagine having an illness like diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, etc (all higher in rural areas by the way) and having your primary care doctor, likely the only one able to treat you, take off because their ROS contract is up to be replaced by a new ROS contract doctor that now has to try and learn not only your history (if they'll even take you on since we know doctors just LOVE to treat people with time consuming health problems) but the history of everyone else as well?
