The Health Awareness Society in the College of Medicine and Health Sciences at the United Arab Emirates University organized a TEDx event to showcase the experiences of successful medical students on Tuesday, 7th April, 2015. This event was held in the Sheikh Khalifa Hall in the College of Medicine. There were more than 200 students from the college, professors and other participants in attendance. This event is part of a series of conferences aimed at disseminating new ideas and concepts in the field of medicine.

Dr. Mohammed Al Houqani, Assistant Dean for Education and Academic Affairs, gave an opening speech. He explained that, “this event is to celebrate World Health Day through the participation of inspiring and successful physicians in various medical fields; and to remind students of the importance of the field they have chosen to study in order to motivate them to persevere and excel despite the difficulties they may face in the future”. Dr. Al Houqani thanked the event sponsors: in particular Gulf Pharmaceutical Industries – Julphar.

Two successful Emirati doctors spoke to the students to encourage them and describe their own experiences. Dr. Adel Al Shammari, cardiac surgery consultant and creator of the first mobile heart surgery clinic, described his experiences and achievements at both local and international levels.

Dr. Ali Singel, consultant dermatologist and Director of Medical Services for Dubai Police, delivered a motivational speech in which he was quoted as saying, “words have energy, and positive words bring good things, while negative words are detrimental.” He used his experiences to encourage the medical students in attendance.
