I was admitted to the Pirogov Clinic on Fontanka on October 20, 2025, for heart surgery. Viktor Alexandrovich is a doctor from God. Thank you very much for your difficult but so necessary work. Viktor Alexandrovich was my attending physician. From the very first minutes of communication until discharge, he was very attentive, polite, and tactful. He came to my room constantly, gave competent recommendations, and explained what needed to be done after the operation. Dear Viktor Alexandrovich! From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for the highest level of professionalism, sensitivity, and mastery. Your work is not just medical care — it is true salvation, support, and hope for patients and their families. Thank you for your kindness, patience, and for the confidence you give your patients in the most difficult moments. I wish you strong health, professional success, grateful patients, and the strength to continue your important and noble work! With deep respect and sincere gratitude, Borisova Galina Nikolaevna

On September 23, 2025, my father underwent CABG surgery at the N.I. Pirogov Clinic. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to cardiac surgeon Dr. Viktor A. Pyagay for his high professionalism, attentiveness, and support throughout all stages of treatment. Dr. Viktor Alexandrovich proved himself to be a compassionate, responsive, and responsible specialist, always ready to help and explain every detail of the treatment and recovery process. His involvement and care helped us go through this difficult period calmly and with confidence in a successful outcome. Thank you for your kindness, attention, and heartfelt attitude toward patients! What I liked: High professionalism.

In May 2025, Dr. Viktor Alexandrovich Pyagai was assigned as the attending physician for my father, Nikolai Kuzmich Iutinsky, prior to his aortic valve replacement and tricuspid valve repair surgery. Before the procedure, Dr. Pyagai thoroughly explained the condition of my father's heart and walked us through the upcoming surgical plan. After the long and complex surgery, he continued overseeing my father’s recovery — providing consultations, follow-up exams, and carefully adjusting medication dosages tailored to his needs. Dr. Viktor Pyagai is a kind, respectful, attentive, and highly skilled cardiac surgeon. He has a very positive attitude and knows how to inspire confidence in his patients. We are deeply thankful for your invaluable work! Our heartfelt thanks also go to the entire cardiac surgery department — an outstanding team of specialists with big hearts!

I was under the care of Dr. Viktor Pyagai following a scheduled CABG surgery at the Pirogov Clinic on Fontanka. What can I say — he is attentive, explains everything clearly, and takes the time to ensure his patients understand what’s happening. I was able to ask all my questions, not only during rounds but anytime. He always explains the reasoning behind the medications he prescribes and advises on the best path to recovery. With him, I truly felt I was in good hands. I can confidently recommend Dr. Viktor Alexandrovich as a dedicated and experienced professional — I have others to compare with, and he stands out!
