Her parents were farmers in Hau Giang province, so Cam Trinh always tried to study well to change her fate. Trinh's older brother and sister dropped out of school early to give her younger sister the opportunity to go to school. Even though she did not have new clothes to wear, and her broken sandals had to be sewn with thread and wire to wear again, Cam Trinh never stopped dreaming of becoming a doctor in the future.
“Being a girl studying to be a doctor is very hard. From the third year on, I have to do clinical practice, sleeping in the hospital more than in my dorm room. The days I slept in the hospital hallway were scary and sad, but thinking about my parents and siblings at home gave me the motivation to keep trying,” Trinh said.

In her first years of college, she did not have to do clinical practice at the hospital, so Trinh took advantage of tutoring to earn extra income. In addition, because of her medical knowledge, Trinh often shared articles with skin care content on social networks and attracted hundreds of followers. From there, Trinh "got into" selling cosmetics online.
During her time studying general medicine at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Trinh said she was most afraid of pediatrics because the disease in this group progresses very quickly and must be closely monitored. According to Trinh, her daughter studying medicine will face health disadvantages when working at the hospital. “Being a doctor is very hard, there are days when I work at the hospital from late afternoon to 6 am, then I have to continue studying all day. Not getting enough sleep causes my skin to break out in acne, become dry... I look very lifeless at that time,” Trinh said.
Doctor Cam Trinh successfully defended her master's thesis in early November 2023.
After graduating from the general medicine department of Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy in 2018, Trinh studied and worked at Can Tho City Dermatology Hospital until 2021. Sharing the reason for wanting to become a dermatologist, Trinh said: “I live in the West, so the use of mixed creams and medicinal alcohol is very common. People who use it for a long time will lead to skin complications that are very difficult to treat. Studying this major not only makes me beautiful but also helps people around me to be more confident about their appearance. I want to convey knowledge of beauty and medical-standard skin care to everyone, especially women, so that they can have a better quality of life.”
With the desire to learn more about dermatology, in 2021 Trinh continued her master's studies at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy. Trinh was the doctor with the highest entrance exam score in the master's program in dermatology at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy that year. This young doctor said that he had difficulty receiving a research topic on genital warts in men. During the process of implementing the topic, the patient was somewhat hesitant to share and hide the symptoms, leading to incorrect data. By July 2023, when the thesis was 80% completed, Trinh was informed by her supervisor that the data was incorrect and had to do the survey again from the beginning.

“For 1 month, I only focused on rewriting my thesis, and only slept about 2 hours a day. During the process of doing the topic, having to come into contact with a male body was very inconvenient, but because of the nature of the job, I tried to overcome it,” Trinh shared.
After many difficulties, in early November 2023, Trinh successfully defended her master's thesis in dermatology and graduated with honors.
Dr. Tran Thai Thanh Tam, currently working at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital in Can Tho City, commented: "I was Trinh's supervisor during the thesis process. To me, she is a diligent student, willing to research and has a spirit of learning. Although she had to carry out a very difficult topic, which is to evaluate the situation of genital warts and from there propose timely treatment methods. Although there were difficulties in collecting data during the implementation process, Trinh solved the problem very well and gave accurate final results."
