Get an original essay The holistic view of what it means to be a doctor During an internship I organized at Great Ormond Street Hospital I saw first-hand what it means to be a doctor. We are not just the person who provides a diagnosis or treatment, but someone who takes a holistic view of our patient by taking note of his social background, his needs, living conditions, the type of work our patients do, these deductions they are all part of our diagnosis to ensure they receive the best treatment. I have seen counselors change lives by bringing smiles to patients when I was in the clinic. An example of this was the case of a parent who was concerned about their child's catheter insertion procedure. The consultant understood how worried the mother was and assured her that the operation was successful. From this I learned that a doctor must be sensitive, and I also learned how important the choice of words and tones is, that is, to empower not only the patient but also the people close to him by assuring them that they are in excellent hands. But I also understood the responsibility we have. We only speak to patients a few times, but we are responsible for their health, their well-being and their lives. By combining these aspects together, it demonstrates how doctors are a role model in society. Shadowing the operating room during the long nephrectomy hours made my internship invaluable, working under pressure, working together as a team, but most of all seeing my consultant lead the team. The way he led the registrars and nurses, not just giving them orders but making sure they understood the importance of everystep, no matter how small, and making them appreciate what they did while making sure I understood just like the others on the team. I have learned that as doctors we are leaders and team players who work together to be efficient so that our patients receive the best treatment possible, I am confident that I possess these necessary skills of orientation, communication, deduction and cooperation. Teaching GCSE students as well as being Head of Operations as my teaching has allowed me to hone my interpersonal skills, I have found this to be a useful way to strengthen my knowledge and gain more confidence in my ability to teach and therefore be a role model , a guide, a mentor and above all a people person with great communication. This is important because medicine is a collaborative profession; over the course of my career, I will have to support and teach colleagues and kids and hopefully one day an internship student. Another vital opportunity I had undertaken was an EPQ on the impact of diabetes on the Bangladeshi community in Tower Hamlets. I examined the culture of the community which, I found, has a great influence on the development of diabetes. This taught me the importance of research in medicine: finding trends and connections between the social aspects of life and disease. I performed advanced laboratory research examining potential genetic causes of type 2 diabetes in the community. I had to use specialized equipment such as a PCR machine, which allows me to adapt to a variety of instruments in addition to the usual pipette and measuring cylinder. Honing my skills as a doctor But it was in college that I learned to hone those research and lab work skills from the numerous course assignments to the vast array of equipment. I had to analyze many case studies and articles, select relevant information and condense it. In terms of lab equipment, I have used micropipettes multiple times making it almost second nature; I have used the PCR machine many times than before and now I understand how it works. Such skills are invaluable to doctors. The ability to extract key information is critical, as demonstrated during a multidisciplinary meeting I attended at Guy's hospital. The documents I was given contained a large amount of information, but it was the doctors who spoke in person for only a few minutes condensing the documents and highlighting the main issues which ensured the meeting ran efficiently and without hitches. The ability to adapt to different equipment is also very important and I really enjoyed using the surgical stimulation equipment during the internships, it was interesting to use equipment that I had no idea how to use but then in a few minutes I was able to perfect my movements and I almost managed to sew up a mannequin using mechanical arms. No doubt this would prove vital as a surgeon and having this practice now with all sorts of equipment at university has given me that extra confidence in my abilities. My journey to becoming a successful doctor is still based on the choices and skills I acquire over these next few years shaping the person I will one day become. As mentioned before, the constant attention to detail and resilience, the ability to work under such pressure, the motivation through the hectic schedule and years-long progression. These are goals I will achieve. Over the course of my degree I intend to acquire these skills: one way I am doing this now is by balancing my schedule, University contact times, homework, my teaching job,.
