Hallo!
Mich würde doch mal die Zukunft der Rechtsmedizin interessieren.
Gerne auch von fachkundigen Kollegen.
Wird wirklich immer weniger obduziert? Haben sich die Aufgaben auch irgendwie verschoben ( Gewaltschutzambulanz, Untersuchung Lebende etc) ?
Vielleicht kann jemand berichten! 🍀
Hi!
Welche Zusatzweiterbildungen machen eurer Meinung nach Sinn als Allgemeinmediziner bzw in der Hausarztpraxis?
Natürlich unter allen Gesichtspunkten, sprich zeitlicher und materieller Aufwand sowie finanzielle Aspekte.
Finde Manuelle Medizin, Akupunktur und Palliativmedizin eigentlich sehr interessant und gut umsetzbar ( die ersten zwei mache ich immer mal wieder)
Viele Grüße!
Hey everyone!
Can anyone tell me a bit more about Rural Generalist Medicine in Australia? From what I understand, it seems to be a rather unique specialty/pathway.
Is it basically an advanced form of emergency medicine combined with general practice and hospital medicine, or is that an oversimplification?
I’m particularly interested in the procedural side. For example, would a Rural Generalist with the appropriate surgical training actually perform procedures such as an emergency appendectomy, or would that generally still be transferred to a larger hospital? What about things like C-sections, anaesthesia, fracture management, chest tubes, etc.?
Maybe someone can write some things about his or her daily work life 🍀
Imagine it’s one day in August 2015.
You wake up in a house near PAK’nSAVE, and it’s so cold that you can see your breath. But your medical elective is calling, so there’s no time to stay in bed. A quick hot shower, a good New Zealand coffee, and you’re ready to go.
You head down Heretaunga Street West and arrive at the hospital. And then there are the people. Everyone is so incredibly friendly that you end up having such a good eight-hour day that you almost don’t want to leave.
On the way back, you grab something from Burger King or BurgerFuel and enjoy it in the garden, because the sun has finally come out a little.
Of course, you could have cooked at home. Your host family had already prepared plenty of food for you. But after two weeks, they left you alone in the house and travelled to Australia for five weeks.
Think about that for a moment.
You’re a 26-year-old medical student from Germany. You didn’t know these people before you arrived. And they trusted you enough to leave you alone in their house for five weeks while they went to another country.
Isn’t that just incredibly nice?
Unfortunately, there was one small problem: you had forgotten to pack enough underwear. So your mother back in Germany had to send you some through DHL Express.
My 26-year-old self had such an amazing time there. The winter was perfect: cold mornings, fresh air, cosy houses, good coffee, and incredibly friendly people.
It’s one of those memories that just sticks with you.
End of story 🙂
Thanks for reading.
Hallo in die Runde!
Kennt die jemand noch ?
Als kleiner Junge waren die immer das Highlight in der bunten Tüte. Vor einiger Zeit wieder mal gekauft, der Geschmack von damals ist überhaupt nicht mehr präsent. Nicht mehr sauer, nicht mehr lecker.
Schade, dass Red Band den Geschmack so verändert hat!
Hey guys!
I’m a German doctor and I’m interested in how healthcare systems work around the world.
Since I’m also a big fan of Japan, I was wondering how the Japanese healthcare system actually works. Are you guys generally happy with it?
I’ve read that you don’t really have general practitioners/family physicians in the same way we do in Germany, and that people often just go directly to a clinic, wait for a while, and then get treated.
Is that actually how it works? What is your experience with the system? I’d be really interested to hear how it works in everyday life, how you choose where to go, and whether you’re generally satisfied with the quality and accessibility of healthcare.
It would be fantastic to hear some perspectives from people living in Japan!
Thank you so much, and all the best from Germany
Hey guys!
I visited Rotorua(New Zealand) back in 2015 and was a regular visitor to the local DunkinDonuts store.
Did anyone try the nespresso pods ? Are they worth it ?
All the best!
Found this website today with some really decent prices. They even have Pumpkin Spice! ❤️
Hallo liebe Leute!
Wir haben vor einigen Tagen ein Angebot von 1komma5 erhalten. Mich würde mal eure Einschätzung interessieren. Fair ? Zu teuer ? Sind die angebotenen Geräte aktuell genug ?
Module können wir noch mehr nehmen, kostet wohl 80 Euro pro Modul..
PS: Habe es nochmal hochgeladen, weil es die Bilder vertauscht hat. Hoffentlich bleiben sie jetzt in der richtigen Reihenfolge.
Vielen Dank fürs Lesen und die Hilfe! :)
August 2015, such a lovely place to visit 🙂
Hey,
I’m looking for the best capsules with flavour. Currently I’m kinda loving the Starbucks ones with hazelnut, vanilla and caramel.
Which ones do you prefer ? I’m talking about the normal ones
All the best from Germany 🇩🇪
I’m currently rewatching CSI, and this might be an unpopular opinion, but I think Ted Danson did a fantastic job. I know a lot of fans preferred the earlier seasons and missed Grissom, but Danson really made the role his own. His portrayal of D.B. Russell brought a different kind of leadership—calm, thoughtful, and empathetic—which fit the show surprisingly well. I genuinely enjoyed the seasons he was in.
P.S in Germany the original series is called CSI Vegas since season 12
Hey everyone!
I’m pretty sure this is one of the most frequently asked questions here, but I’ll ask anyway.
I’m currently rewatching CSI, and it’s really making me want to visit Las Vegas for a few days—do a bit of gambling, watch some shows, and just experience the city.
Unfortunately, my wife isn’t enthusiastic about the idea at all, so I’m looking for arguments to convince her.
For someone who thinks they wouldn’t enjoy Las Vegas, what are the must-see things? What surprised you the most? Is there enough beyond the casinos to make it worthwhile for someone who isn’t into gambling?
All the best from Germany 🇩🇪
Edit from Wednesday 11:23 am:
Thank you so much for all your answers! Really appreciate it
Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen,
mich würde mal interessieren, wie ihr das mit dem Gehalt von Weiterbildungsassistenten regelt.
Zahlt Ihr ausschließlich die KV-Förderung ? Orientiert ihr euch am Marburger Bund ? Gebt ihr den Mehrgewinn weiter, wenn die Scheinzahl um die erlaubten 20% gesteigert wurde ?
Hatte heute ein Gespräch mit dem Vorsitzenden vom Weiterbildungsverbund. Dort sind 9 KV Sitze unbesetzt, aber die Hausärzte hätten dort wenig Gewinn, daher können sie nur die Förderung zahlen ( habe bisher Zusammenhang nicht verstanden)
Danke! 🍀
I visited New Zealand twice, in 2007 and again in 2015, and I’ve been thinking about those trips ever since. I had an amazing time there. I remember people wearing shorts in the middle of July, everyone seemed incredibly friendly, the coffee was excellent, travelling with InterCity buses was easy, the North Island felt vibrant, and even as a doctor I got the impression that patients generally respected and appreciated their GPs. Overall, life just felt more relaxed and easy-going.
On the other hand, whenever I read about New Zealand these days, I keep seeing stories about doctors leaving the country, unaffordable house prices, extremely expensive groceries, increasing drug and alcohol abuse, and rising violence.
So I’m wondering: am I just looking back through rose-tinted glasses, or has New Zealand really changed that much over the last decade?
I’d be interested to hear from people who live there or have lived there recently. How do you see the current situation?
PS: ChatGPT corrected some sentences 😎
EDIT:
Thanks to everyone for the positive and negative replies. I know that visiting as a tourist gives you a very different perspective than actually living there, which is exactly why I wanted to hear from locals.
I’m a German doctor. I previously worked in orthopaedic surgery and I’m now retraining to become a GP. While I still enjoy living in Germany, I’m also keeping an open mind about opportunities abroad if things continue to become less attractive here.
New Zealand has always been one of the places I’ve considered, so I really appreciate everyone sharing their honest experiences—both the good and the bad. 🤘
Go check out “our mirage”! They are pretty awesome 😎 👏
Hi!
Gibt es hier Kollegen, die als Fachärzte für Physikalische und Rehabilitative Medizin niedergelassen sind ?
Mich würde mal der Arbeitsalltag, Spektrum, (Kein)Budget etc interessieren.. 🙃
Finde das schon eine Frechheit, dass das vom Gesundheitsamt einfach so akzeptiert wird.
Oder was meint ihr ?
