Review of International Medical Service & Fellowship Training in Korea


汐止國泰醫院牙科部 張明智 主任

Sijhih Cathay Hospital, Ming-Chi CHANG



For the policy of the hospital in which I serve, each department will offer their expertise for the international medical service in remote regions every year. I participated in these 4 times in India and Mongolia. We, not only to the population, offered the general practice, but also to the local dentists, the brief training course such as oral anesthetic and complicated teeth extraction. We place great emphasis on the perpetual and independent capability of local dentists.


In early 2011, I had a great opportunity to visit Seoul National University Dental Hospital (SNUDH) for the international fellowship. The main theme of this training was laid on the clinical experience of orthognathic surgery and other aesthetic procedures of which SNUDH earns worldwide great reputation. In SNUDH, I met great mentors like Prof, Jin-Young Choi, Prof. Myung-Jin Kim and Prof. Byoung Moo Seo and so on. Furthermore, I earned good friends forever, like Prof. Hyungmo Kim, Dr. Inseok Song, Dr. Soon Jung Hwang, Dr. YongDae Kwon and Dr. JongMin Hwang etc. Their amiable connection also offered me the following invitations as Charity Operation in Vietnam and instructor of the international cadaver workshop on facial contouring and maxillofacial aesthetic surgery in successive 4 years. The most treasure they give is the enormous resource and drive to improve myself.
