Doctors

The Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) says only 58,000 doctors renewed their annual practice licence out of the 130,000 registered doctors in the country.

Kolawole said since inception in 1963, we presently have over 130,000 registered doctors in Nigeria.

However, the doctors must meet the requirements to earn those increase in quota.

We will partner them to ensure that they met those requirements and as we try to ensure that, standard must be upheld.

It is noteworthy that Edo State University Teaching Hospital Auchi is the first state-owned teaching hospital in Edo.

Atoe advised the newly qualified medical graduates to uphold the ethical standards of a medical professional.

You must internalise the values of honesty, integrity and selflessness.
