KKU-MD was pleased to be part of their successful time and to have them in our faculty.
“My overall impression of my stay in Khon Kaen in very positive, regarding both the contents of my professional training and the human aspect,” one of the exchange students said. “All the people I met during my stay at the Srinagarind Hospital were very kind to me and they have always been so helpful from the first day that I felt very quickly that I was part of the family,” he added.
