The experience in Chiba university hospital was unforgettable to me. Before leaving for Japan, I felt excitedabout my one-month clerkship in Chiba University, as I expected, the course was gorgeous. I already miss Chiba university staffs, doctors and Japanese friends.

I selected Orthopedic department because I'm interested in Surgery and orthopedics is popular in Korea. I was surprised that so many doctors and students have been working and studying in the orthopedic hospital in Japan compared to Korea. Every doctor and student was kind. They always teach me in English regardless of their English skills. In my clinical clerkship, I found that Japanese doctors and students have always been kind and polite to patients despite their stressful and busy daily lives. And I can see many difficult medical cases and the treatment processes in Chiba University hospital. It seems that Japanese surgeons have elaborated surgical skills, especially in Orthopedic surgeons. I felt they have pride in their skills. In Surgery room, I could observe surgery througha camera and then many doctors explained the surgery after it, so Ican easily understand surgery processes.

Many Chiba university students gave us an enthusiastic welcome. I was surprised that there was a circle for international students. Members in Chiba Medical students' International circle held welcome party and took care of us with kind. Icould feel comfortable owing to CMSIC friends' management. Thank you CMSIC!!!
I think Chiba university medical school and hospital always make their best effort to internationalization. Japanese doctors are good at English and ready for meetingforeigners. And Chiba university medical students take a course in English from Canadian doctor, Daniel, so they are very good at English.

I strongly recommend Chiba University clinical clerkship to Inje University students.
I can't believe it has already been 1 week since I came back to Korea. I have had so much positive experience thanks to a lot of doctors in Orthopedic department. I really hope to see you again in the future. Thank you so much again.
