Sharing about the years of dedication to the sick, as a doctor, there are countless memories of the times when we promptly discovered and successfully treated difficult cases, patients with serious illnesses...

He remembers most recently, with the hospital team, promptly discovered and treated patient Ngo Tan Phung (95 years old), diagnosed with colorectal cancer, with many underlying diseases. Performing major surgery on such a special case is very difficult, but Dr. Cong and his colleagues consulted carefully and came up with a detailed plan before performing the surgery. With the strong support of the anesthesia and resuscitation team, after 2 hours, the surgery was successful, after 3 weeks, the patient returned to normal activities.

The happiness of a doctor is when he helps many patients overcome their illness and become healthy again. The health and trust of patients is a great source of motivation for us to love and be more attached to our profession.

The "golden" generation of hospital construction

During his time working at Cua Dong General Hospital, Dr. Cong not only promoted his personal capacity, pioneered in adopting new techniques, contributing to improving the effectiveness of medical examination and treatment of the unit, but was also one of the active "nuclei", belonging to the "golden" generation in building and developing the Department and the hospital.

In the early days when Dr. Cong took over the role of Head of the Department of General Surgery, the physical facilities were still lacking, the equipment was not yet synchronized, the professional qualifications of the medical teams were not equal, and the opportunity to update new techniques was limited. With the attention and facilitation of the Hospital's Board of Directors, and at the same time promoting the role of "locomotive", Dr. Cong motivated his colleagues to improve their skills and professional capacity.

The Department has mastered new techniques: Laparoscopic surgery for gastrectomy, colon and rectum resection, laparoscopic thyroid surgery, laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery, laparoscopic hysterectomy, laparoscopic esophageal myoma enucleation, liver resection, laparoscopic nephrectomy... equipped with a harmonic scalpel system, a modern laparoscopic surgery system, a laser urinary lithotripsy system...

Recognized for his professional competence and trusted promotion to the position of Deputy Director of the Hospital, in his managerial role, Dr. Thai Doan Cong contributed to the Hospital's Board of Directors to implement solutions for the development of the Hospital. Over the years, Cua Dong General Hospital has continuously developed the scale as well as the quality of high-quality medical services, applying the process of medical examination and treatment and comprehensive health care for patients, according to the modern standards of a "hospital hotel"; becoming one of the prestigious general hospitals in Nghe An and the North Central region.
