Reactions from Twitter users

@docjaph said:

Lol, we don't do this intentionally. Most times, it's the pressure of work. The desire to attend to all patients in record time. If doctors who work in especially public hospitals take all their time to write or do other things, some patients might not even see doctors that day."

@Ekene_Od said:

"I remember one time like that at one health outreach, this doctor legit denied his handwriting because he couldn't see what he wrote when I took it back."
