PANO – On the occasion of the 66th anniversary of the Vietnamese Doctors’ Day (February 27, 1955-2021), the Hanoi People’s Committee held a meeting on February 24 to honor and present “People’s Doctors, Meritorious Doctors” titles to outstanding doctors for the 13th time.
The event saw the attendance of Secretary of the municipal Party Committee Vuong Dinh Hue, Chairman of the municipal People's Committee Chu Ngoc Anh and representatives of relevant agencies.
Addressing the event, Mr. Chu Ngoc Anh underscored that President Ho Chi Minh attached much importance to taking care of people's health as well as the ethics of doctors.
The People’s Doctors and Meritorious Doctors are noble titles, presented to outstanding doctors with good ethics and achievements, contributing to the cause of taking care of people’s health. Since 1989, over 300 doctors in Hanoi have received the noble titles.
These titles recognize the silent but great contributions and remarkable achievements of the doctors, especially in recent years with many dangerous pandemics in the world.
On behalf of the Hanoi People’s Committee, Mr. Chu Ngoc Anh acknowledged the contributions of all local doctors, congratulated those who received the People’s Doctors and Meritorious Doctors titles and affirmed that he believes that the health sector of Hanoi will fulfill all of its assigned missions.
