Self-assessment
After having worked in neurosurgery department at major public and private hospitals, I have accumulated rich clinical experience in my professional field and found a new working mode in two different models of business. In particular, I have my occupational concept elevated significantly. While devoting myself to the work with my comprehensive knowledge, I have made special effort in functional neurosurgery, especially epilepsy surgery. I know full well that I have gained all my professional knowledge and experience from patients and that only by constant learning and emulation can I continue my career.
I have also drawn a lot of inspiration from my years of military education and cultivation. It is only with team spirit can a team remain invincible all the time.
