"We hope that in the context of this health transformation, the needs of doctors will also be met. If we see that now there are foreign doctors. As a specialist medical graduate, you will later join in the competition for this job opportunity. "If you have the idealism to build a nation then you will not fight over it, but if you have a different orientation then this opportunity will become a struggle," he said.

Apart from that, he advised the new specialist doctor graduates to always maintain ethics, because current ethical issues are very worrying.

"I hope that all of you can be useful for society, you will be useful for the country, how can we reduce the morbidity rate, death rate and help encourage the country to be promotive and preventive in handling health," he concluded.

Dean of FK UNS, Prof. Reviono in his speech said that to become a good doctor, one of them must be a professional doctor.

"In professionalism there are several components such as competence. You have all been given sufficient competence in every medical skills activity or diagnosis method. Apart from that, we have also set an example of responsibility in the profession. We have also taught patient safety, so that is all capital to become a professional," Prof. Reviono said.
