1st Specialist Doctor “At TTU, teachers are professors. PhD. Dr the industry leader in teaching has helped them effectively apply theory to practise, guiding and guiding students to develop into talented and reliable doctors in the future,” said Nguyen Thi Le Nga, who works at Binh Dan Hospital and is the parents of two children, Duong Phuc Hai and Duong Tram Anh (YK3 class – medical course 3). The amount of clinical knowledge and abilities taught at TTU has helped students enhance communication skills and clinical thinking prepare and manage time, similar to public medical universities such as University of Medicine and Pharmacy and Pham Ngoc Thach Medical University. I recognise that this is the bridge that will allow the next generation of doctors to gain access to modern medical knowledge, promote the capacity to utilise other languages, and confidently, confidently, and effectively apply it to the working environment at home and abroad.”
After years of construction and development, Tan Tao University’s Faculty of Medicine is not only a place to impart theoretical information and practical medical abilities, but also a place for students to foster their talents and find their passions. The medical profession’s bright and devoted instructors are a tremendous source of inspiration, adding substantial value to the future of medical students.
