The collective of the Medical Center Hospital of the President’s Affairs Administration of the Republic of Kazakhstan congratulated their veteran patient, Honored Medical Worker Alima Zhagfarovna, on the occasion of her 100th anniversary.
On behalf of the Hospital, the jubilarian was extended the warmest congratulations and presented with a festive bouquet of flowers. During one of the most touching moments, Alima Zhagfarovna shared her life principle:
“Once, while I was in the intensive care unit, a doctor asked me, ‘What is the secret of longevity?’ I replied, ‘Together with my Motherland, Kazakhstan, I have gone through the entire path of development from beginning to end. Every step together.’
The life journey of Alima Zhagfarovna reflects an entire era. She began her professional career as an epidemiologist and worked in laboratories, hospitals, and sanitary-epidemiological services. She later completed a clinical residency and became a physician-therapist.
In Almaty, she served as Chief Physician of a city polyclinic and, in total, dedicated 25 years to the field of medicine. Thousands of patients received medical care from her, and she made a significant contribution to the professional and ethical development of several generations of physicians.
For her dedicated service, Alima Zhagfarovna was awarded the Golden Star Order, the Ahmed Yasawi Award, and a number of medals. Her contribution to public healthcare and her life stance serve as a vivid example for current and future medical professionals.
On the day of her jubilee, she warmly blessed the Hospital collective. The collective of the Medical Center Hospital of the President’s Affairs Administration of the Republic of Kazakhstan wished the veteran strong health, peace of mind, and the support of her loved ones.
