The story of the romance between the doctor’s father, wife and son-in-law/the story of the sack full of doctor’s money and the patient’s crying eyes


life group; Atiyeh Akbari: We are used to hearing bad news from everywhere, even the medical community, for example, news about doctors’ tax evasion, or some doctors’ abuse of patients’ pockets is attractive to us. This kind of news spreads quickly, but there are not a few doctors who change people’s lives with their benevolence, and we rarely hear from them. There are not few doctors whose deal is with God and not with the patient’s pocket. In the days that are decorated with the name of doctors, it would be a pity if we don’t mention these doctors who, as the famous saying goes, are the end of faith and knowledge. The subject of our report on Doctor’s Day is a review of the adventures of two doctors; Narration of the romance of a father, wife and son-in-law.

The late Dr. “Manochehr Dawai” and Dr. “Abdol Jalil Kalantar Hormzi”

* The first narration; When all the doctors were ashamed of Dr. Dawai

Dr. “Manochehr Dawai” was the flagship of the Iranian surgeon community; An enduring face who passed away a month ago and whose name will forever shine on the dark side of Iran; The super-specialist of surgery who, after completing his graduate studies in the 50s, faced the best request for residency. He could have stayed in America and had both surgery and life, but he returned and served his country until he was 86 years old, and not in the glamorous offices in the north of the city. He became the savior of thousands of soldiers in the most difficult days of the war. He returned and three generations of Iranian surgeons became doctors in his classroom. There is a difference between becoming a doctor and being a doctor, and Dr. Dawai very well taught his students to be a doctor first, then a doctor. Let the doctor be the grief of the patient who is sad and his body is suffering. To be a doctor and not only for the pain of the body, but also to be a relief for the pain of the patient’s soul.

Dr. Dawai was a doctor for his patients and now after 86 years, although the light of his life is off, his path is full of light for his students. Today, in honor of the doctor’s day, we are going to one of the best students of Dr. Dawai, who happens to be the doctor’s son-in-law. His narratives about the enduring face of the country’s medicine and his lifestyle can be heard.

* Doctor’s reaction to a patient’s examination request after 400 surgeries

Dr. Abdul Jalil Kalanter Hormazi began his apprenticeship under Dr. Dawai from Jundi Shapur Hospital in Ahvaz during the war. He has audible memories of him as much as all the days of spending time with this enduring face, and among all his narratives, he touches on the war years and says: “Dr. Dawai was the first man of surgery in Iran during the war, and in all the years of holy defense, he Dedicated to the warriors. If you want to know him better, I will take you to a memory from 1365 and Jundi Shapur Hospital in Ahvaz. This one memory will introduce you to the depth of this great man’s personality. In one of the operations, the number of wounded was so high that we operated on 400 wounded in just three days; So that Dr. Douai was in the operating room for 72 hours and he was doing surgery one after the other and I was his assistant.

After a few hard days and hundreds of surgeries, the tired and listless doctors and nurses were sitting in the emergency room of the hospital to calm down a bit, once a middle-aged person entered the emergency room and went to the nurse and said that I have a cold. I want the doctor to visit me. Imagine that in that terrible situation and the war conditions of the hospital, this request of the patient was like a bitter irony for all the doctors. I told him brother! What are you saying in the middle of this battlefield! You don’t see the situation. Go home, take a pill to get better. In short, we rejected that patient. It was another cold. But once Dr. Dawai got up from the chair and went to that person. They told one of the nurses to bring him a chair. They sat facing that man. They examined him. They prescribed medicine for him and got up in front of the patient and sent him away with respect. At that moment, I wanted the ground to open its mouth and swallow me. We realized that day that we don’t become doctors just by studying and carrying the name of doctor. I learned a great lesson from Dr. Dawai that day, and I understood that to become a doctor, we must spend seven years of love, not just academic years and medical science lessons.

* The story of a bag full of money and a patient’s crying eyes

The patient goes to the doctor’s office with a bag of money to thank the doctor who saved his life, what will the doctor’s reaction be? Narrating the romances of Dr. Douai from the words of his student; Listen to Dr. Kalanter with an interesting memory: “I grew up in Dr. Dawai’s classroom, I became a doctor. It was my honor to become the son-in-law of Dr. Douai and together with his daughter, who is also a doctor, we continued the love class in the presence of Dr. Douai. Dr. Dawai performed surgery for 50 years; It means half a century. I dare to say that not a single bit of suspicious money came into his life.

Dr. Dawai, with that medical glory and prowess, fame and popularity, performed the most important surgeries in government hospitals, and they were satisfied with the same salary as the government hospital. If they had to perform surgery in a private hospital, they would proceed with the lowest cost.

I was an assistant to Dr. Dawai in surgeries for three years. Many times, Dr. Douai went to the hospital’s accounting office away from my eyes and requested to transfer their salary for surgeries to my salary.

Many times, I saw patients who had heavy surgeries and when other doctors answered them, they were operated by Dr. Douai, and after the operation, the patients came to the office with a bag full of money, but Dr. Douai said that I did my duty, I also got my salary from the operating room. Patients would leave the doctor’s room with tears in their eyes from joy, because of all this greatness and natural resistance.”


Dr. Abdul Jalil Kalantar Hormzi

the second narrative; Mr. Groom…

The student of Dr. Dawai became the first plastic surgeon in Iran and ironically the son-in-law of his teacher. Now is the time, the exam time to pay back all the years of studentship that Dr. Abd al-Jalil Kalanter Hormazi has fully fulfilled the right to be a student in front of his teacher. How do you ask? When he went to England for a specialized course in plastic surgery, they offered him the best facilities for living there. But he did not stay and returned to his homeland; Just like his teacher.


The picture of a child with severe jaw and face deformity by Dr. Kalanter; The plastic surgeon performed 10 difficult surgeries for free and returned to normal life

*Daily income of a famous plastic surgeon

Can you tell me how much is the price of a cosmetic surgery at a time when the fever of cosmetic procedures has risen like this? And when the name of the professor is behind the name of his surgeon and he is famous, it is spectacular!

As the old saying goes, two, two, four! A famous plastic surgeon, who you have to wait a year for, with a high tariff for cosmetic surgeries and two or three operations a day, can earn up to 100 million tomans a day.

But well, it doesn’t always turn on the heels of these two, two, four of us. The same famous plastic surgeon, instead of three daily operations of nose surgery, shapes his life in a different way. He comes and performs 10 heavy plastic surgeries for free on a child who has a severe genetic abnormality and was born with a face that does not resemble any other human being. It means that the eyes are not in their place, nor the nose, nor the eyebrows, nor the mouth. So much so that the child is abandoned because of this abnormal face when he is born. Then he gets well. The good end of this child, whom even the nursery nurse is reluctant to hug, is that the student of the same famous doctor reaches for the razor to save him, and he stays in the operating room for 12 hours just for a boy’s surgery and is not paid a single rial. The name of this plastic surgeon is “Abdul Jalil Kantar Hormazi”.


Khair Doctors, Mehram Plastic Surgeons Group

* Ointment charity organization; Unique in the world

Dr. Kalanterhormzi fulfilled the right of the medical master’s apprentice when he started the largest charity group of plastic surgeons in the world; A work that is not unique in the world, but has no equal at all.

Dr. Kalanter has gathered a group of plastic surgeons and behind the scenes a group of young lovers from the operating room technician and the anesthesiologist, etc. What are these groups doing? They identify children in need of plastic surgery who have genetic abnormalities in the face, wherever they are in Iran, and perform all of them for free without receiving a single rial. “Alireza Chit Sazan”, who is a documentary maker and one of Dr. Kalanter’s old companions, says: “What Dr. Kalanter has done is indescribable. He and his team have performed free surgery on 2,000 patients with facial abnormalities since 2008. You just have to be there and see the tears of joy that roll down the cheeks of these patients for the first time after the end of the surgery, when they see themselves in the mirror. The name of the group that Prof. Kalanter started is the Mehram Plastic Surgeons Group, and he is also the founder of hundreds of free plastic surgeries. Dr. Kalanter started the first trip to remote areas for surgery on jaw and face deformities with 7 plastic surgeons. “Very soon, other plastic surgeons were added to the ointment group, and now this charity group has 40 good plastic surgeons.”
