        What do Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and brain tumors all have in common? Every year, millions of lives are saved by neurologists. Neurology is a very challenging field of science. Also, being a neurologist is a stressful career since the brain is the most complicated organ in the body. I admire my Grandpa, Dr. Rong-Chi Chen, because he is compassionate, knowledgeable, and actively involved in his job as a successful neurologist.

        Nothing is scarier than stepping into the doctor’s office so it is extremely important that the doctor is compassionate. Dr. Rong-Chi Chen treats all patients with the respect they deserve. He listens to his patients thought and complaints very thoroughly and carefully. Also, he patiently explains all treatment options in great detail. He tells fellow doctors and medical students to treat patients like their own family. Lots of people like Dr. Rong-Chi Chen and would wait in lengthy lines just to see him because he is so compassionate.

        To be a professional in neurology, you must have an abundance of knowledge. If a neurologist happened to give a false diagnosis, the patient would be in serious, life-threatening trouble. That’s why it is important to be knowledgeable. Dr. Rong-Chi Chen graduated as top of the class from the best high school and best college in all of Taiwan. In Taiwan, everyone has to take a test to get into medical school. However, Dr. Rong-Chi Chen did not take it because his school already recommended him to any college of his choice. He has cured lots of patients, been researching throughout his life, and had tons of experience. In addition, he has also treated thousands of people and ultimately saved lives. Knowing all that you can in a field as complicated as neurology is vital.

        As a child, we were taught to help others, always give back, and stay actively involved in the community. This is exactly what Dr. Rong-Chi Chen does. Even after he retired, he has continuously helped out in the neurology world. He founded multiple organizations to help people. One of the programs is the Lotus Foundation. This foundation is for patients on the brink of death to die with dignity. He fights that terminally-ill patients should not have to go through painful resuscitation just to live a couple more days in agony. Along with charity work, he gives speeches, blogs, and travels, staying actively involved in the health of all people. One person can change the world by staying active and involved.

        I look up to neurologists, such as my Grandpa, because he is compassionate, knowledgeable, and actively involved. Neurologists save so many lives and help lots of people. Saving someone impacts their whole family. Have you ever wondered how this world would be without good doctors? Would some of your friends or family still be here? Since my Grandpa is such a great neurologist, he is my hero.
