Dr. Danijela De Micheli Vitturi from Split talks about her experience of this seminar for doctors and medical works

Among the participants of the Third International Seminar for Doctors and Medical Workers in Medjugorje, we had opportunity to meet dr. Danijela De Micheli Vitturi from Split, who is specialising family medicine. Dr. De Micheli Vitturi  took part in every one of these three seminars. She said: „The theme of the seminar  „Peace be with you“ gives a message that those who come to Medjugorje will receive peace, so they may see where does the restlessness come from, whether it is their personal or in the world around them. As doctors, we are invited to take care of the health of the whole person, we cannot see the person if we exclude her soul.
