It should be noted that Turkish doctors visited Uzbekistan 13 times. Before that, they visited Ferghana, Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara, Surkhandarya, Khorezm, Andijan region and the Republic of Karakalpakstan, where they conducted in-depth medical examination of sick children for the first time. Over the past period, they have performed more than 800 complex operations.
It is noteworthy that this charity campaign is fully funded from the Public Fund and is conducted free of charge for the public. Now there is no need for sick children to travel abroad for treatment.
According to the head of the foundation's press service, Bunyodbek Amrov, the number of appeals in Namangan has also increased significantly. As a result of diagnostic tests on the first day, 203 children, including 105 in general surgery and 98 in complex plastic surgery, underwent a medical examination and were selected for rehabilitation and preparation for surgery at the next stage. Now, at the end of October, complex operations of varying complexity will be performed with the participation of Turkish and local doctors. This, in turn, will be a "skill lesson" for local doctors.
Of course, such an experience is useful for our citizens, and the fact that these funds are covered from the State Fund clearly demonstrates how high the motto "For human dignity" is in the literal sense. The fact that all related expenses are covered from the State Child Support Fund is a practical expression of the social assistance provided to children from difficult and sick families.
Attracting more foreign specialists to Uzbekistan will not only create an exchange of experience, but also serve as a platform for exchanging ideas, for example, conducting complex operations in the format of consultations and workshops.
It is not difficult to understand the joy in the eyes of sick children and their parents who came to the Turkish doctors for an examination. Similar exchange of experience will be continued in other regions of our republic.
