Mass exodus of medical doctors hit General Hospitals in Cross River
When DAILY POST visited the Hospital on Mary Slessor Road, Calabar on Monday, it was observed that only two Medical Doctors were seen attending to several hundreds of patients.
“My decision to seek another employment outside Cross River State, Akwa Ibom State was a painful decision. Dr Okon lamented further that most of her colleagues have left the State to other States to work, “Imagine the number of people here but only two of us are attending to them,” She regretted. “We used plain sheets to write names of patients, we force patients to pay N100 and above for sheet of paper for the prescription and other sheets” She regretted.
“In terms of doctors not been enough in the state, they have been effort to increase the number although it is grossly inadequate.
