Re: Doctor looking for doctor
It is like any couple, same profession or different doesn't matter, it all depends on their mental harmony not professional similarity.
^ that is exactly what i was tryina say.
who you calling cranky! …
I am talking about doctors . App tu hakeem haan
Re: Doctor looking for doctor
Lol. Nami, tauba.
BBQ I'm not saying it doesn't apply to other careers. Nor am I saying it applies to all docs. Like I said, ob's have bad malpractice issues here in Miami and you'll see them marry people outside of medicine to put all their wealth in that person's name. You can sue an Ob but not his wife. Now female ob's practicing here - wow. Now they ARE cranky because it's harder to find a guy who will accept your career and stand by you and not run off with your wealth. Plenty of lazy bums out there looking to prey on girls like these ladies. Naturally, there are gems to be found too.
I personally have no interest in marrying a doc. In fact, it's the one thing that turns me off.
But if the person is nice and you get along, then I guess it's worth it. Not easy at all to be witha doctor. They really don't have time for you. Which sucks.
Re: Doctor looking for doctor
Women pysicians do have somewhat limited choices since traditionally they would like man to be earning more than them. If they are looking for a match after they start earning.
If they are in training then it may not be such a big factor.
Some families do look for female doctor for financial benefit too. They at times place a condition that she should be able to pass the exams and go in to practice..The guy may not be a doctor himself and does not mind to play along... :(
its true that men in demanding careers don't have much time for the family on a regular basis. But what matters is that they should know they have to make up for it. I'll use my khalu's example again, he takes the entire family on a month long vacation every year. Even on a regular basis, he doesn't come back home all cranky n stuff.. even when he's tired, he makes sure to play cricket with his kids or something like that...
If he wasn't like that, i doubt the marriage would've worked no matter how understanding my khala would've been...
Re: Doctor looking for doctor
its because they can play doctor and nurse, silly. :D
Re: Doctor looking for doctor
ristas are made in heaven and allah decide for us,its all materialistic things bottom line is that relation between them after marriage,specially after kids,this all happen in our society just because we are moving away from islamic cultures
its because they can play doctor and nurse, silly. :D
I don't think so........they may already be too tired of playing that at work in serious mood....... :)
It would not be so thrilling for two doctors or one doctor and other non-doctor to play that game at home....They may try some other scenarios...:D
Well I am doctor and definitely not looking for someone who is a doc. I wouldn't want to be married to someone in the same field or at the same hospital as me. I just don't find it appealing. Now due to my profession, i am very busy...however, i take some time off to have fun and enjoy as well. Things i want to be able to do with my spouse are: hiking, skiing, camping and rafting. As long she can keep up with me having fun in life...i don't mind marrying whoever that girl is insha'allah.!
Re: Doctor looking for doctor
we wouldn't see a thread asking about a lawyer looking for a lawyer.
it's a profession like most and all professions have + and - points.
i know that doctors are all hyped up to be busy crazy people who have these grueling routines and spend days n days in the hospital but i feel that alotta that comes from ppl who are obsessed with grey's anatomy, house, ER, or all those other medical shows.
i'm married to a doctor...not even, just a resident. and he has more than enough time to hang out with me, play soccer with his friends, AND even attend all the dawats we are ever invited to. he goes grocery shopping with me. he picks me up from work when i'm working longer than him. we watch atleast 2 movies each weekend. and he doesn't come home every night tired and blabbering about how busy or demanding his profession is. yes, there are definitely times when he has to be on call and basically passes out the second he comes home, but its rare and it happens to engineers, physicists, even people in the business world who have to deal with project deadlines and therefore often spend their weekends in the office just to get a project completed. i dunno, maybe this is cuz he's not a surgeon or an OB but seriously ppl need to get rid of this perception that doctors have no time for family.

If only lawyer husband could sue lawyer wife for not making breakfast or making burned pancakes..:(
Re: Doctor looking for doctor
cooking does not come under malpractice 
there’s legal malpractice too. : D
Re: Doctor looking for doctor
^ LOL...
yes it is malpractice...malrepresentation if breakfast is not provided at time! Perfect ground to sue her.
Back to topic: He may find a mole or lump on her and she may find something else in him wrong! That is called helping each other....:p
Re: Doctor looking for doctor

either he is in a cush residency or he's in a Cush field. Or he's not interested I. Fellowship and so doesn't spend his time in research OR wants to do a fellowship that is easy to get and so he can afford to be luxurious with his time. Let's not kid ourselves. What you describe is not typical for residents.
Re: Doctor looking for doctor
i never met a doc, who is married to another doc or may be only happened in "Chuck".
if they do get married then that match is made in hospital. :)
:k: I soooo agree with you here.
A little off topic but…And as for people who think docs marry docs for money makes me think" logo ka khial hay k docs kay pass bus muft ka paisa aata hay’ thats why they look for a similar life partner…really people get a life!!
