"Success lies not only in technical skills but also in adherence to ethical values and harmony with the team."

The foundation of a surgeon’s success lies in disciplined work and a constant desire for learning. To keep up with the rapid changes in the field of medicine, they must prioritize staying up-to-date and valuing every case as an opportunity to learn something new. Patience and composure are among the most essential traits of a surgeon; they must continuously develop these qualities to make rational and effective decisions in critical moments. They should adopt a strong commitment to ethical values and always prioritize the well-being of their patients. Additionally, effective communication skills play a vital role in gaining patients’ trust and working harmoniously with their team. They must always set high goals and strive to improve themselves by learning from challenges they encounter. Believing that surgery is not just an individual effort but a collaborative endeavor, they should act accordingly.
