Docs need more solid footing

IN reference to the letter “Docs face uncertain livelihood” (The Star, Jan 24), I am writing in full support of the author’s proposal and suggestions to improve conditions for doctors.

I graduated from UKM in 2013. I went to medical school at a time when we were taught that Malaysia was short of doctors. We were told to expect long shifts, back-to-back calls, endless waiting lists and more.
