"The Nigerian Dr. doesn't care whether he finds your vein on first or tenth attempt, but the patients care. Just buy one for yourself and take it with you to the hospital if you get AP.
"Then, you can start charging patients."

@DEST1NY_ added:

"It's about 20k dollars, how much doctors and nurses dey collect?"

@esiriumukoro commented:

"Wanna guess how much the average "uncaring Nigerian Dr" earns monthly or yearly to spend "under 1m to purchase a vein finder? You also think the hospital management will permit them to charge patients extra for a service that is considered routine and part of their normal duties?"
