I want to be a doctor when I was younger. I wanted to receive the guests of Azerbaijan’s independence from medical education in Turkey, because Turkey has a very special place for all Azerbaijanis. We are one nation, two states. It has a little deeper meaning to me personally.
The places I came from were Amasya district of West Azerbaijan (now Armenia) border with Kars province of Turkey. We watch TRT even though it is prohibited in the Soviet geography.

It was our future to contribute to the re-establishment of the system. Our togetherness and friendship continue.
The Central Clinical Hospital is the first hospital where modern cardiovascular surgery and cardiology were introduced. Young Azerbaijani doctors like me, who grew up in Turkey, and our colleagues from Turkey, who continued to support us, had a very serious task in the establishment of their modern cardiology and cardiovascular surgery.”
