Haematology Nerds: .... Walking the haem path.

Understanding the people in haem labs. Thats what its all about

If the sight of blood makes you squeamish, this probably isn’t the career for you. Haematology is all about blood, but not in a creepy horror movie kind of way. Haematologists aren’t vampires (at least we don’t think so)🧛; I rather they are highly skilled specialists in their field.

Haematologists usually work in specialist departments of hospitals carrying out tests on blood samples🩸 and analyzing results to find solutions to your health-related problems. It’s a bit like detective work🔬; they look at the shape, size, function and number of blood cells to help diagnose illnesses. 🧪

Haematologists aren’t just involved in the diagnostic process; they are also involved in the treatment and care of patients with diseases of the blood cells and bone marrow. That means that they aren’t just confined to the laboratory, but also treat certain patients one-on-one and work with doctors 👨‍⚕️and nurses. 👩‍⚕️That's what makes Haematology so challenging and alluring. I'd have hated being pinned down in some lab behind a microscope🔬, dishing out remarks on smear slides, if it hadn't been for the clinical part of it all. Thats what makes haematology come alive and makes me feel like the doctor I am, rather than some medical technicians.
Gosh these people can brag about being 'almost doctors' just because they have some basic knowledge about a few medical tests!! All the sweat and blood, all the years of mind wrecking course work down the drain😩.

As if all those years of med school were some fake drama.🎭
Well, everybody has a right to their opinion, and their health preferences are their personal issues. All we can do is just suggest whats best for them and leave the rest to The Lord, who is the real HEALER! We are just pawns in His hands.... facilitators in his shower of mercy algorithm.
