Heart Remembers
In the transition from May 2020 to June, Dr. Boldsaikhan introduced the "Heart Remembers" project. The genesis of this initiative lay in the absence of pediatric heart surgeries since his departure from the 3rd State Central Hospital in 2011. This void included discontinuation of surgeries performed by visiting doctors from Japan and Korea, and those who sought medical treatment abroad in the United States or Turkey. Dr. Boldsaikhan pondered the question of how to address the needs of children with heart defects. The answer lay in Songdo, where pediatric heart surgeries were performed, but solely within urban areas, leaving rural regions underserved. The solution? Raise donations, venture into the countryside for diagnosis, bring the children to the city, and perform life-saving surgeries.
The inaugural inspection, amid the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, occurred from July 6, 2020, to July 16, 2020, encompassing Khuvsgul province, including Khatgal, Murun, Tumurbulag, and the Many River Delta.
