The Dept of Psychological Medicine in NUH has just gotten a new Indian FT as their head - Dr C B Khare not too long ago.
See:
http://www.nuh.com.sg/ourServices/medicalServices/psychologicalMedicine/psychologicalMedicine_ourSpecialists.htm
According to the source, this yaya Indian FT is slowly recruiting more and more other Indian FTs into the dept. Apparently, the power is now held by him and his cronies... some Singaporean doctors inside not too happy but couldn't do anything. I think some of them may quit. It won't be long before the whole NUH Psychological dept will be run entirely by Indian FTs.
And here's the bloody farking joke... they need interpreters when they talk to some of our Ah Pek, Ah Soh patients... and during interpretations, some of the meanings of the wordings are lost when you translate from hokkien to English... and in Psychological Medicine, it's very impt for doctors to talk and engage with patients in order to make a good dianosis of the patients psychological conditions....
Damn sad man....
Anyway, if you have elderly relatives who can't speak English but need to see psychiatrists, pls don't go to NUH...
