The memories of his time as a student flooded back, reminding him of the formative experiences that paved the way for his successful career in medicine. Amidst the bustling atmosphere of the summit, he found solace in revisiting familiar grounds and reconnecting with the institution that played a pivotal role in shaping his journey.
