Asking Medical students what it’s like studying in the Philippines 🇵🇭 

I am a nurse and have worked both in the Philippines and US. Based on my experiences, doctors in the US rely diagnostic imqging before they can make diagnosis. Like for example, appendicitis. US doctors rely on CT scan image to diagnose patients while Philippine doctors can diagnose a patient with appendicitis by merely palpating the belly.

Maybe because CT scan is readily available in the US,and it gives a more definitive diagnosis?Palpation alone and diagnosing appendicitis through palpation is the old way,before CT scan was available,maybe?

​@@yraglareb8741which one is more definitive in diagnosing appendicitis,today's ct scan or palpation?would you rather be diagnosed by palpation or imaging?

​@@yraglareb8741would you rather have a ct scan before surgery or just palpation exam and find out after opening your abdomen?

​@@user-xs8re2oy7i The answer is obvious. Only an idiot would say the old way is better. It's like asking which car is faster "A Bugatti or Jeep"

How is it misleading? they med students studying in the Philippines right? or did i missed something?

What's misleading here?

I just hit like.

​@@joshi6898I think it's the "regret" part 😂, well if you enjoy their convo you'll overlook it.
