The handsome doctor, IELTS 8.0 and book author

Mr. Do Trung Kien (30 years old), graduated with honors and was the second-highest student in the general medicine major at the Military Medical Academy in Hanoi in 2020. In addition, Dr. Kien is also very good at English and has a passion for writing books.

Studying medicine but knowing a foreign language is a big advantage

Starting from simple dreams in his childhood, Kien always wanted to help the poor who could not afford medical treatment. "The smiles from patients gave me strength in my journey to pursue medicine," Dr. Kien shared. Kien was a chemistry major at Hanoi - Amsterdam High School for the Gifted. In 2011, his family sent him to study biochemistry at the State University of New York in Geneseo, USA. Two years later, Kien's family encountered financial difficulties, so he could not continue studying abroad.

When he had to return to Vietnam due to unavoidable reasons, Kien could not help but feel regretful. However, he quickly realized that studying is not limited by geography and English is the key to opening the door to knowledge. “I quickly regained my spirit and passed the entrance exam to the general medicine program at the Military Medical Academy. This is a great environment that helps me equip myself with the necessary medical knowledge to serve the community,” Kien shared. During his studies at the Military Medical Academy, Kien always showed himself to be an active student, good at foreign languages ​​and often won scholarships. Kien was the head of the English Club of the Military Medical Academy, won scholarships for 10/12 semesters in the 6-year general practitioner training program, and won first prize at the academy-level student scientific research conference. In 2019, as a final year student, Kien had the opportunity to study abroad on an exchange program at the National University of Singapore Hospital.

What sets Kien apart from other students is his seriousness in studying. Kien maintains a relaxed mindset during important exams. Kien graduated from the Military Medical Academy with an average score of 8.21/10.

Doctor with passion for writing books

Having the opportunity to interact with international students has helped Kien improve his English significantly. In particular, achieving an IELTS 8.0 certificate not only comes from studying but also from the process of acquiring knowledge through books, videos and music . "Knowledge is formed from daily experiences, not just intense study sessions," Kien shared. In 2022, Kien published the book "Medical English" and "Hospital Communication English", in 2023. The process of writing and publishing the two books was not easy. Kien encountered many difficulties in ensuring the accuracy of the knowledge.

“I consulted with experts and interned at major hospitals to better understand the actual work of medical staff. This not only helped me accumulate knowledge but also ensured the practicality of the book,” said Mr. Kien. Mr. Kien advised medical students to start learning English from the first year and orient their learning from basic to specialized. “Reading, translating and practicing regularly will help improve language skills,” said Mr. Kien. With his constant efforts, Mr. Kien has been proving that the combination of expertise and language skills can open up many opportunities, not only for himself but also for the community.
