Thank you so much for sharing this. Appreciate it, keep them coming

Why don't most, if not all government based specialist that are not bound to their contracts quit their positions in the GH and make more moolah?

How does MoH retain these specialists, as I am told that the bests are always in government hospitals? Was I misled?
*
they don't
MoH never bothered to retain these specialists or the potential to be good specialists
that notion that the bests are in gov hosp are only referring to the tip of the iceberg
and these few stayed on generally due to various personal reasons, not for being blindly faithful to the ministry

Still, we give shits to businessman when they charge exorbitant prices, but we don't give shits to doctors that charge exorbitant prices.

Usually people will ask to boycott a certain business, but not to doctors.

What I don't get is the fascination for doctors. What makes them so great? I mean yes, they help to cure patients, they help to patch you up. But in the end, they still make money, unlike voluntary doctors, now those I really do respect them. They give their all without expecting anything in return.

who says ppl dont give shits to docs who charge exorbitant prices?
all doctors have to follow the fee schedule which stated the maximum/ceiling amount they can charge
the fee schedule is in the public domain
if u think they overcharge, can always complain to MMC
if they followed the schedule and u still think they overcharge, it means ur the one not earning enough money to afford a private doc services

uncle is specialist at gleneagles, only do consulting, not operational. he's making 250k a month give and take.
*
lol even with simple calculation thats rubbish
250k / 30 days (means he works without any weekend off) = 8333
do u know consultation charges max is 235 for first visit and 105 for subsequent per visit?
which means he is seeing minimum 35 new patients per day every single day for 30 days a month
impossible

Exactly! How is this even possible? This then begs the question of how these doctors are practising if they are making these amounts of money. In some professions being the best only affords you a rm50-60k salary. And these doctors in private seem to be making a hefty amount of income.
*
the salary actually has limit due to time and labour factor.
the specialist in private has to do their own procedure and consultation therefore it's not like businesses where your profit can be endless if ur customer number increase or by hiring more people.
unless he opens up own multiple clinics and hire other doctors to work for him.

Based on the paediatrician at Pantai, probably over 100k.

85 for consultancy.
40-50 for injections.
Have ward visits as well.
40-50 patients a day in his clinic.

Should have listened to my dad and studied medicine last time.
*
becoming doctor is easy, but to become paediatrician is not
the specialist training is tough
and think about 40-50 paediatric patients every day = 40-50 anxious parents to be dealt with
it's tough work
