Parliament Speaker Igor Grosu today participated in the Oath Ceremony of the Doctor and Pharmacist for the graduates of the 2025 Class. He thanked the young people for choosing to build their professional future in Moldova.

In his speech, the speaker emphasized the importance of their role in transforming the national medical system and in strengthening a state that protects its citizens.

"Dear future physicians, from now, on you will be part of a medical system that is changing every day, even though we still have much to do. Without a modern medical system, we cannot talk about a healthy society," opined Grosu.

The speaker noted that, in recent years, the state had made the largest investments in the healthcare sector—over 3 billion lei—and the modernization process will continue. Among the priorities, there are endowment with advanced equipment, renovating hospital departments and modernizing maternity hospitals from all over the country.

"All these investments have no value without you. You are the true investment. You are the medical system. You are the pillar of a sound Moldova," said Grosu.

In his message, the head of the Legislative underscored that every young person who chooses to stay at home and practice in the country represented an extra chance for the future of Moldova.

"This gratitude also comes with a promise: we will continue to develop the country and the medical system, so that physicians and patients feel safe. We will move firmly towards the European Union, so that, in a few years, we can increase investments in our hospitals and take care of our people's health," concluded Igor Grosu.
