A Reflection on the Current Status and Future Directions of Iran’s Health System

Abstract

Social media posts have become an integral part of the health system, and various hospitals utilize them to celebrate their milestones and achievements. A few days ago, I came across two photos in my feed that I wanted to share with you and your readers, along with some thoughts that might interest policymakers in Iran and around the world. As a neurosurgeon who trained in Iran and moved to the UK to top up my training, comparing two health systems in general and techniques and approaches of  eurosurgery specifically has been a passion since my first days when I started my journey at Royal Preston Hospital.
