## **Prof. Hikmet Koçak: “Medicine requires sacrifice and continuous renewal”**



Üsküdar University Vice Rector Prof. Hikmet Koçak pointed out that medical education is a challenging process requiring dedication. Koçak stated; “Medical education is truly difficult. It is a profession that serves people. There is no night or day, no Saturday or Sunday. A doctor must always be ready to practice what they know and learn what they do not. It is a profession that constantly requires self-renewal. Medicine requires sacrifice and continuous renewal. Patient services, meaning the part that attends to patients, must definitely be carried out in the hospital. We are grateful for your help in this regard, as tomorrow these students may look after us or intervene for our loved ones. Therefore, our goal, concern, and effort are directed towards their proper upbringing.”



Koçak also thanked the Ministry of Health representatives and the managers of public and private hospitals who contributed to the qualified education of the students.

## **Prof. Haydar Sur: “We achieved 25 rercent TUS success with our first graduates”**

Of the remaining 80 students, 22 passed the TUS exam. We achieved a 25 percent pass rate. This is a very good rate for first graduates. Furthermore, one of our students ranked 425th in Turkey. I believe that having a student among our first graduates who entered the top thousand is also an indicator of quality.”



## **“We are all parts of the same health system”**



Sur, stating that it is pleasing for the health system to work in a mutually supportive way, said; “The World Health Organization defines the health system as 'all people, organizations, and activities whose primary purpose is to improve the health of the community.' Therefore, we are all actually parts of the same health system. We can be on the government side, on the private side, on the education side, or on the clinical service side. The integration of these parts with an institution like Üsküdar University Faculty of Medicine and their working in a mutually supportive manner made us very happy.”



## **Collaboration Message from Stakeholder Hospitals…**
