Nguyễn Thị Thu Uyên
Both the university and the hospital are places where I have spent significant time studying and practicing to build a solid knowledge foundation. With continuous efforts in learning and staying updated with the latest advancements in medical literature, I always maintain an open and flexible mindset in response to the constant changes in the field. My work experience has given me deep insights into various professional aspects, from complex terminologies to sophisticated medical procedures. However, I realize that this knowledge is often too difficult for many people to access due to its dry and complex nature. As a healthcare professional, this has driven me to seek a new approach, transforming complex medical knowledge into something more understandable and relatable for everyone. Writing is the tool I chose to achieve this goal. I do not merely see writing as a means to convey information, but also as a way to connect with readers, patients, and help them access medical knowledge more easily and naturally. I always strive to turn difficult medical terms into memorable, practical stories. My passion for writing stems from a love of sharing knowledge and a desire to bring real value to the community, not just within the hospital. I believe that in a world full of information, the accurate and easy-to-understand dissemination of medical knowledge is extremely important. With every article, I hope to contribute a small part to raising health awareness, helping people better protect themselves and their families. Especially in today's era, when weight loss and beauty according to medical standards are of great interest to many, the Drip Hydration Vietnam project is an information channel that helps me convey the best knowledge and solutions to everyone.
