We had a seminar with Dr.Olisova today for 2 hours. It was refreshing from the usual routine. In Dermatolgy, the patients take other forms of therapy apart from medication and cream/lotion application. Therapy such as photochemotherapy (PUVA), ozone therapy, acupuncture, electric therapy (electrophoresis), and the list goes on.
I have witnessed but not even half of the treatment procedures personally, usually I bring my patients to the door front and ciao. But after today, I think the next time I come around, I will stay to learn more. Of course the equipment aren't new and shiny.. in fact I nearly cried when Dr.Olisova said, "We were the pioneers in using these methods" and she tapped on the cranky metal box. OMG. The world out there is like using sleek, state of the art machines!
Classic example of Wall-E vs Eve.
Hahahahahaha I loved that movie!
I was engrossed in our little hospital tour actually. It was educational and reminded me of the good ol' Rombongan Sambil Belajar in school. Except that they are my colleagues and out of the number of 20s.. I don't know anything about the other 15. I speak and work with a few of them, that's about it. Apart from the usual "gang", I'm not sure if it's even possible to make some friends within the department. Even when we chat, it's never personal but solely about the cases.
Like.. "I ain't here to be best friends with you" mode. Errr.. okay.
Dr.Olisova is 100% against tanning salons, the whole artificial tan scam. She explained that PUVA therapy (Psolaren+ultraviolet A rays) are meant to treat Psoriasis, eczema and other skin mycosis. Patients need clearance to undergo the therapy because there are certain health and skin conditions which contraindicate its usage. When you go to the tanning salons, they don't ask for your health reports, they don't ask if you have any illnesses (you might not even know if you have any for sure!).
Plus, UV radiation causes skin cancer. One study showed that radiation on tanning beds penetrate 3-8 times deeper into the skin than natural sunlight.
Why deliberately lie on the tanning bed like a coffin? >(
I'm having a bit hiccoughs lately in giving my zacheot *sniff, sniff*. Prof.Kochergin said the textbooks I have are not good enough and suggests I buy a 4-volume American textbook by the author Rook. The set of Dermatology collection costs 24,000pyb (US$875).
Sure. I'll get it.. IN MY DREAMS!!
I only hope I'll be able to clear some before our trip to Malaysia. That's in 3 weeks time! 4 weeks to be exact but.. I don't care! :P
