Thank you so much for all these classes, sir. They really boosted my confidence and strengthened my grip. I wasn't able to attend any of them live, but I am catching up on the recorded videos.
Today is my first day as a house officer in paeds! Thank you for guiding me through all the basics and for creating this group. I have truly learned a lot here and will continue to do so.
Thank you so much for such an interesting and informative lecture, for new consultants as well as those who have been out of practice for a long time! I'm really glad to see doctors teaching alongside their duties with such devotion. Keep up the good work. JazakAllah.
