Doctor Chu & The Journey of Service: When a Doctor Chooses to Be the Patient’s Companion
Doctor Chu – a rehabilitation medicine physician with more than 12 years of experience – shares valuable insights about health, physical therapy, post-stroke recovery, and musculoskeletal conditions. This is the inspiring story of his commitment to community health in Bac Ninh, Bac Giang, Lang Son, and beyond.
Meet Doctor Chu – The Doctor for the Poor
Journalist: “With such a busy schedule at the hospital, why do you still take time to write a blog?”
Doctor Chu (smiling):
“Perhaps… because I want to be with my patients, even before they meet me. I want them to have a place to find accurate, trustworthy medical information — so they feel less anxious and afraid.”
With his simple white coat, gentle smile, and bright, kind eyes, Doctor Chu does not fit the stereotype of a distant doctor. Instead, he feels like a companion — one who listens, shares, and truly cares.
12 Years of Healing – From Classroom to Clinic
- Military Medical Academy (2006–2013): Where the foundation of his medical knowledge was laid.
- 108 Central Military Hospital & 103 Military Hospital: Where he trained with top experts in physical therapy and rehabilitation.
- Advanced certifications: ECG, EEG, post-stroke rehabilitation, and advanced physiotherapy techniques.
“Examining and treating patients is not charity. They have already suffered enough. If we can help, we must give it our all.”
— Doctor Chu
Why This Blog Was Created
Journalist: “Did you start this blog just because you love writing?”
Doctor Chu:
“Partly, yes. But more than passion, it’s about service. In the hospital, I can only treat a few dozen patients a day. But through sharing accurate knowledge, I can help tens of thousands.”
This blog acts as a bridge between doctor and patient — a place where patients can find peace of mind before they even step into the hospital.
The Pain of Patients – The Story of Mr. Nguyen Viet T.
To understand why this blog exists, listen to the story of Mr. Nguyen Viet T. from Yen Phong, Bac Ninh.
Mr. T. suffered from a severe lumbar disc herniation and could barely walk. He had tried many treatments — herbal medicine, acupuncture, dozens of clinics — but his condition kept getting worse.
He recalls:
“I was in pain every day, couldn’t sleep at night, and thought I would spend the rest of my life on crutches. Reading health information online made me even more anxious — every site said something different. I didn’t know whom to trust…”
One day, he stumbled upon Doctor Chu’s blog. He read the article on spinal rehabilitation exercises and followed every step carefully. After six months of combined treatment and exercises, he was able to stand up and walk normally.
Mr. T. said emotionally:
“I’m so grateful to Dr. Chu. Even though we’ve never met, it felt like he was personally guiding me through his writing. Now I not only walk normally but also exercise every day.”
Mr. T.’s story is just one of thousands of patients who have regained hope thanks to the simple, reliable, and practical knowledge shared on this blog.

Behind the White Coat
Journalist: “Hearing your stories, it sounds like medicine is full of pressure?”
Doctor Chu (pausing):
“Yes, there is a lot of pressure. But the moment just one patient recovers, all the effort feels worth it.”
He recalls a severe stroke case — the patient was nearly comatose upon admission. After four months of rehabilitation, he watched the patient take his first steps again.
“At that moment, I knew I had chosen the right path.”
Vision & Future
Doctor Chu is working on building an Online Health Library — a free, trustworthy, and accessible source of medical knowledge for everyone.
He also plans to write books and create community courses to empower people to take control of their own health.
A Personal Message
“I don’t write this blog to become famous.
I write because I want everyone to understand their own bodies, to prevent disease, and to recover faster.
If one day you read an article here, apply it, and feel better — that’s enough for me.”
— Doctor Chu
