MSc. Dr. Nguyen Van Vy Hau, Head of Internal Medicine – Family General Hospital, Deputy Head of the Organization Committee for this year’s conference said – “150 medical topics and scientific research projects were reported and discussed by professors, associate professors, experts, and doctors nationally and internationally. The overview of the reports and research this time provided professional value and rich content. Besides the common diseases such as diabetes, there were also topics with more specialized contents such as endocrinology and obstetrics, endocrinology and surgery, endocrinology and cardiovascular”.
This year, apart from focusing on medical knowledge and advance in treatment techniques, the conference emphasized the importance of establishing relationships between hospitals. Also prioritized was the relationship between family doctors and other specialties. The selected topics, therefore, focused on the closeness, practicality, and working together between hospitals.
The “11th Central & Highland Vietnam Congress on Endocrinology – Diabetes – Metabolic Disorders” had created valuable opportunities for professions working in the endocrinology and metabolism field in the region to present their research works. The conference had encouraged scientists, especially young ones, to be more enthusiastic in further R&D.

The valuable medical information of the conference will certainly contribute positively and massively to the work of serving and caring for the general well-being of the whole society in the future.
