My Future Profession

 

In Kazakhstan hundreds of thousands of young people study at different medical institutes. They study numerous theoretical and special subjects. They have practical training during which they do the work of nurses and assistant doctors. Such a course of studies helps them to gain much knowledge of medicine, which will give them the possibility to diagnose different diseases and treat people.

But medical students must remember that it is not easy to be a good doctor? A good doctor must have not only deep knowledge of a particular field of medicine such as surgery or therapy. He must love people and have a kind heart. He must give all his knowledge, all his abilities, all his talent, and all his time to people, to the protection of their health.

One of the prominent therapeutists Prof. M.P.Konchalovsky considers that a person may be a poor writer, he may be painter or an actor but a man cannot and must not be a bad doctor.

Medical students must understand well all the difficulties of their future profession. They must remember that often it will be difficult to diagnose a disease, sometimes it will be even more difficult to cure it. But a good doctor will always do his best to gain his patient’s confidence. And the confidence of a patient in his doctor is a “valuable remedy”.

Did you hear about Hippocrates Oath before you entered the Institute? What does it read? It reads, ’’I shall enter any house for the good of the patient. I shall not do my patient any harm’’-these are the words from Hippocrates Oath. And they must be not only words for medical students. They must become the motto of their life.

Medical students must remember that to treat patients is a great art but not an ordinary trade. It is one of the professions which requires a real calling for it.
