@DrEricLevi @GavinPrestonMD #doctors are doctors worse enemies! We are not united as a profession, we bully and undermine our own #Juniors and nurses and many are greedy. It is the duty if vast majority good doctors to uphold the progressionalism. We reduced harm to #patients by focusing on #patientsafety
