A group of junior doctors, UMP included, has secured a short meeting with Minister of Health, Mr Ong YK to raise issues of great concern amongst us. One of the big issues would be mental health.
As part of that, we are hoping to tap on our community to help collect local anecdotal data to strengthen our case. Specifically, we are talking about doctor suicide or attempted suicide.
If you have heard of doctors (or medical students), or even personally attempted suicide yourself, please drop a short anecdote here. It will remain completely anonymous unless you wish to let me know who you are if I have follow-up questions.
By sharing this story, you are okay with me sharing it anonymously at this meeting with Health Minister. This is collected solely for this purpose.
