KINGS’ “WHITE COAT CEREMONY: THE FIRST STEP ON THE PATH OF MD”
Kings International Medical Academy conducted the White Coat ceremony for our 2022 batch students. The White Coat Ceremony (WCC) is a ritual in some schools of medicine and other health-related fields that marks the student’s transition from the study of preclinical to clinical health sciences. At some schools, where students begin meeting patients early in their education, the white coat ceremony is held before the first year begins.
The ceremony was presided by Dr. David K Pillai, the Founder and Chairman of Kings International Medical Academy and Transworld Educare. Dr. Joselito Francisco Gullas, Vice Chairman of the Board of Trustees (UV), Dr. John Vicente Gullas (Vice-Chairman of The Freeman Newspaper), Dr. Eva Maria Gullas (Publisher of Zee Publication, Inc.) and Dr. Tricia Ivy Gullas (Building Administrator of JF Gullas, Inc.) were invited as the chief guests to the White Coat ceremony.
The ceremony was started with ‘Tamil Thai Vaalzhthu’, the National Anthem of the Philippines and with a prayer song.
Our honourable chairman, David K Pillai and Mrs. Jecintha David K. Pillai, Secretary of Kings International Medical Academy and all the chief guests lighted the ‘Kuthuvilakku’.
Dr. David K Pillai gave the presidential speech. He narrated a moral story and gave a motivational speech for our students.
