Ramsaran urges new batch of Chinese doctors to create a model for others to follow

The 11th batch of Chinese medical doctors has arrived in Guyana to commence a two- year tour of duty. The doctors were welcomed last Friday by Health Minister Dr Bheri Ramsaran at his Brickdam, Georgetown office. They will serve at the Georgetown Public Hospital and the Linden Hospital Complex in the areas of orthopaedics, urology, general surgery, obstetrics and gynaecology, anesthesiology, plastic surgery and acupuncture.

The Chinese doctors have already been introduced to the Georgetown Public Hospital and will begin their service within a week’s time.
Minister Ramsaran noted that the Chinese medical team has been doing an excellent job in Guyana. He pointed out that this batch will complement and build on the achievements of the previous batch.
The minister said too that the new batch is expected to make a big impact in the medical sector, noting that they have brought skills that are scarce in Guyana.
Meanwhile, Deputy Chinese Ambassador to Guyana Li Qinfeng stated that the previous contingents of doctors have all served Guyana whole-heartedly and the new batch will do the same.
“In this regard, we will like to express our gratitude to the government of Guyana and I was told that this outgoing batch of Chinese medical team was one of the best that has been received thus far,” stated the ambassador.
Dr Ramsaran charged the doctors to create a model for all the future teams to emulate.
