President Pezeshkian performs heart surgery during trip to Tabriz

In a rare and symbolic gesture, Iranian President Dr. Massoud Pezeshkian, a renowned heart surgeon, donned his surgical gown once again and performed open-heart surgery at Shahid Madani Hospital in Tabriz during his provincial visit to East Azarbaijan.

The operation, which was both professional and deeply personal, marked Pezeshkian’s return to the operating room for the first time since assuming the presidency.

Before entering politics, President Pezeshkian had a long and distinguished career in cardiovascular surgery, and he has frequently emphasized maintaining his connection to the medical community.
