The harmony that medical community creates comes from every person employed there such as the doctors, the nurses, the surgeons, and even the pharmacists. Each job is so crucial in order to keep people safe, and improve their quality of living. The good values of medical communities encourage me to choose biochemistry as my main major in college.
