Ramadhan in the time of COVID-19

Fasting during this pandemic has brought both calamity and blessing. The lockdowns and quarantine gave some more time to pray, save from travels and mall visits, rest more from work-at-homes and office leaves, and most of all fast with strong remembrance of illness and death as a reminder to prepare oneself from the worst and the Hereafter.

Meanwhile, we also salute our healthcare workers as many continue to work in clinics and hospitals amidst the scare of catching the virus.

May Allah (SWT) bless our generous frontliner supporters and understanding loved ones as we, medical practitioners, continue to serve even during Ramadhan.

As we all believe and pray for preparedness, we are continually made aware of this -- inalillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun -- to Allah we all belong, unto Allah we shall all return.

Should you wish to support our physicians and healthcare workers in any way, please message us at the FaceBook Page or email imanphil07@gmail.com

May the coming Eid'L Fitr be a fruitful one for everyone, in shaa Allah

JazakAllaho khairan katheer!

Tips on taking the PSBIM

Assalamualaikum! Residency training in Internal Medicine takes up three years or more of our lives, which mainly involves making rounds, reporting cases, attending RTDs, and research. Taking the Philippine Specialty Board in Internal Medicine (PSBIM), however, requires diligent mastery of the Harrison’s Textbook in Internal Medicine and local Clinical Practice Guidelines, which often can be overlooked by ‘toxic’ duties, fatigued residents, or due to busy clinic schedules of internist graduates. Reviewing for the specialty board is both challenging and exciting. Challenging, since you would need to memorize and put into heart as many data, algorithms and ‘most commons’ in the textbook. Exciting, since you discover many options on how to review for the exam such as enrolling in an online review course at the convenience of your own home or workplace and learning how to compile a separate copy of all the disease Algorithms you will find in the textbook.

Kudos to Dr. Al-Radjid Jamiri!

Surgery entails one of the toughest residency trainings especially in government institutions in the country. Withstanding 5 years of long hours in the operating room almost without sleep, saving a life as an occupation nearly 24/7, serving communities, and living far from your loved ones may be such an exhausting task to many. But Alhamdulillah, this did not tire the spirit of our IMAN Co-Founder and VP Dr. Al-Radjid Jamiri, who already completed his residency training in Surgery at the Philippine General Hospital and even topped the national residency training program in the recently held examinations. Dr Jamiri has been an active student leader since pre-med days and has helped bring together many muslim students within the institution to come together as a family,including the Islamic Medical Association of the Phils. Without even resting for a month, he will be entering subspecialty training as a Fellow in Colorectal Surgery by January 2013 ,inshaAllah. We wish to co...
