So, you’re thinking of becoming a doctor – a “superhuman” per se, that can save, ease and make people’s life more beautiful. Nothing could be more prestigious than helping others. Therefore, doctors have always been one of the most welcome members of any society.
As a physician myself, I can assure you there is hardly a better feeling than seeing gratitude in the eyes of saved or healed patients. However, you should realize that it takes hard work and determination to become a skillful doctor, capable of beating illness and sometimes even death itself.
While the student years make up the best period of your life, it's also a time to test your strengths and willpower. You will meet and befriend peers from all over the world and share memorable days that will follow you during your whole life. But these fun times should not stand in the way of your goals to become the best in your profession.
So, if you make your mind up to become a doctor of any specialty: Be it a Surgeon, an Internist, a Pediatrician, a Gynecologist, a psychiatrist and so on, David Tvildiani University will help you reach your highest potential.
