Competent Medical Team

The liver department of Pyongyang University of Medical Sciences Hospital is recognized as a competent medical group in the public health sector of the country.

Chae Pyong Chol, department chief, paid primary attention to improving the practical qualifications of doctors in line with the daily-developing medical science and technology.

He worked hard to improve his medical qualifications, in the course of which he developed an esophageal varix ligation method using rubber rings.

Encouraged by his example, all doctors at the department turned out to study advanced medical technology and apply it to the treatment of patients.

As a result, they all won academic degrees and titles. Some time ago a 30-year-old female doctor introduced insam capsules against hepatitis into the clinical practice and completed her theses for a doctorate.

The doctors and nurses at the department are also famous for their sincere dedication.

In August and September alone, several most serious patients from the flood-hit areas including Jo Jin Suk from Sinuiju, North Phyongan Province, regained their health thanks to the sincerity of medical workers.
