“(...) To be a doctor is to be able to have a doctor-patient relationship in which listening predominates, with an accessible teaching attitude to achieve communication with the patient. On the other hand, never forget to implement in your professional and personal role, the 4 H's of Humility, Humanity, Honesty, and a touch of Humor; that is to say, sow joy where there is sadness”, he explained.
The meeting was attended by “12 graduates of the UEES School of Medicine”, who during the toast, relived their emotions and experiences such as the intense days of internship work in hospitals, the moments of uncertainty during their university years, and those friends and teachers who marked their lives in a positive way, shaping their behavior and character, becoming part of their family.
