    The lectures were wonderful, the doctors were very thoughtful and their manner was very smooth, Dr. Elkamash and Dr. Walid, and the intense passion for the sciences they were explaining was evident in their eyes, and their love for this science was very evident in the seat that we used to sit in every day at night, so may God reward them with all the best on our behalf.
