He shared that in daily practice, a patient and thorough explanation of a test report or a reassuring look can often dispel fear and ignite confidence in patients. Using gastrointestinal endoscopy as an example, he emphasized the service philosophy of “If this patient were my family member or friend, how would I care for them wholeheartedly?” He urged his colleagues to approach their work with calm like still water and meticulous attention to detail,” making sure every abnormality is detected and every patient’s trust is honored Hospital Director Ethan Kholdebarin: Working Together to Safeguard Public Health Concluding the ceremony, Hospital Director Ethan Kholdebarin delivered a speech.
