The medical professionals from UMHAT Burgas are solidifying their strong presence in the autumn scientific season, demonstrating an active role in the development of medical science both in Bulgaria and on the international stage. Doctors and healthcare specialists are presenting their reports and research, reinforcing the hospital's reputation as a leading center for treatment and an active participant in the progress of modern medicine.

The Department of Rheumatology actively participated in two scientific forums with a total of four reports. The topics they addressed are focused on the changes in the rheumatic status of a person with aging. This issue is of extremely high public importance, especially considering the trend of an aging population and increased life expectancy. The team demonstrated its expertise at the World Congress on Musculoskeletal Diseases, which was held in Rome.

The Orthopedics Clinic of UMHAT Burgas received approval for three of its reports from the scientific jury of the 16th National Congress of the Bulgarian Orthopedic and Traumatology Association (BOTA). This congress is one of the leading events in Bulgaria in the field of orthopedics, traumatology, physiotherapy, and sports medicine, and includes international participation.

A joint report by the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Neurosurgery was presented at the International Congress of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies in Vienna. The report examines approaches to childbirth in women with lumbar disc herniation, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and multidisciplinary work between different medical specialties. The Department of Gynecology also participated in two other autumn conferences, presenting innovations in the field of women's health.

At the 23rd National Conference on Neurosurgery, which was held this month, a case from the practice of neurosurgeons from UMHAT Burgas was reported.

In 2025, more than ten departments and structures of the hospital are participating with reports and research in scientific forums. Among them are microbiology, pediatrics, vascular surgery, anesthesiology and resuscitation, and others. The growing role of healthcare professionals, who present their own practical research and innovations in patient care, cannot be ignored.

The permanent presence of UMHAT Burgas on the scientific stage is proof that high-quality medical practice goes hand in hand with scientific development. The hospital continues to support its specialists - doctors, nurses, and midwives - by encouraging them to actively participate in scientific forums, training, and research projects that build the future of healthcare in the region and in the country.
