Dr. A.Nota’s skilled hands help heal Mongolia: "-How many years have you been working as a neurosurgeon?
-I have been working in this field since my graduation in 1968 from the now-renamed Health Sciences University of Mongolia. As I had no previous surgery experiences, I initially worked as a repairperson at the surgical faculty in my home province Bayan-Ulgii’s Ulaankhus sum hospital.
My first surgery was an appendix removal surgery. As I performed the surgery independently, I lined up all my medical books and referenced them throughout the whole operation and was successful. Surgical equipment was abundant in the sum but white cloth and cotton were not as plentiful.
During my one year working as a surgeon there, I performed 52 surgeries. Then in 1969, I was transferred to the General Hospital of the province, and after two years there I was the head of its surgical department. During my time there, I have performed many surgeries of the liver, intestine and stomach, bones, gallbladder and brain. I have also performed more difficult and complex surgeries like the skull. "
