Questions and Answers

What do you think the importance of studying anatomy is in your chosen course?

Understanding anatomy helps us handle our patients better and address their concerns while explaining their medical situations clearly. It enables effective assessment and diagnosis of musculoskeletal issues, ensures individualized treatment plans, and enhances communication with patients about their conditions.
