For two weeks we have taken the experience of foreign colleagues in the field of general surgery, therapy, visual diagnostics. We divided into 2 groups of five people, where the first group was in the Department of Therapy, and the second group in the Department of Surgery.

We also had feedback, we answered the questions of our leaders on the academic part. Some of us remained extra on duty at will.

During the free time from practice, Mr. Khozhiev Dilmurod Yakhshievich, the Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Medicine, as well as the Head of the Pathanatomy Department of the BSMI, organized a cultural and entertainment program through the city of Bukhara. We visited the holy places and many sights of this ancient and beautiful city, incl. the museum of Ibn Sina, the village where he was born.
