Comments on: Mexican Community Medicine, Part 4 http://www.mexicomedstudent.com/2005/12/443 Every journey has a pitstop. Welcome to mine.

Generally, I have little use for the medical establishment; some of what you write supports this. You are a different story. It is heartening to know you are out there. I can only hope that more experience, success and wealth does not turn you to the other side. Part One where the woman was treated with such insensitivity is beyond appalling. There should be NO rules or reasons why this person should not be reprimanded for such incredibly rude behavior towards that young woman. There is NO excuse. I don't know anything about you save what you write here - but I could not stand by and allow that man to continue. I will pray for you my friend that you are raised up to maintain noble values and further that you have the strength to champion your beliefs. Saludos, John Calypso 4- part series on Mexican Medical

Everything we do in the community (outside the medical school) is through the <em>Seguro Popular</em>. Some things are covered directly by the Secretaria de Salud de Jalisco. During 3rd year rotations, some go to rotations through IMSS, some stay in our university private hospital, I'm not exactly sure how it's all divided up. From what I've seen (as a patient, too) private hospital experiences vary. Some are adequate, their main benefit are private rooms, while others are far more lavish. I'm sure as I stay here I'll appreciate the nuances of what each has to offer. Generic affiliation
