It's 2013, but the title sounds like medieval.
I have a lot of classmates/friends in the medical fields. I graduated high school during the time when "Nursing" was a trend. So many of them followed the trend. For me, though i graduated on top of my batch, i chose what i believe i would love doing. I didn't follow the trend and ventured to the world of IT.
SO I asked my nurse friends if they know Verallo, the dermatologist, and tell them my story. One friend told me that she knows the doctor and knows that this doctor is known for being sarcastic.
Then a flashback of memories to me appeared. Our first encounter: he asked me what I self-medicate. I told him everything. He then prescribed me meds. So i said, just to create conversation and as an affirmation: "So dili nato nako gamiton tong cleanser nako doc?" . He replied: "Dili na. Moari ba gud ka kung effective na imong gipanggamit. Ilabay to tanan." . He replied without giving a smile and a voice of conviction. I was shocked. "Grabi ka dili approachable ani niya oe" that was in the back of my mind.
Maldito na kung malidto. Maybe that is the reason why you could see fear in all his staffs. Specially the one who is in-charged in giving medicine. When the buzzer is pressed, her eyes and mood seems troubled and scared.
I was scared too. He was like a medieval landlord who is superior enough to give the aura of "DO NOT QUESTION MY WAYS!".
Maybe this is how he run things in his clinic. Maybe this is the culture of excellence he wants to build starting there, starting with his staffs, starting with his patients..
