What are the “On-Calls” like?
Depending on how many doctors are here at the time,you will only take 2-3 calls a week, and have several weekends off (though most doctors round on their own patients on the weekend mornings). The hospital is about a 5 minute walk from the doctor’s flats, and the average is about 2-3 phone calls per call night – of course, sometimes more, and sometimes none at all.
