I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the doctor who performed my grandmother’s surgery. From the very first day, he showed himself to be an attentive, compassionate, and professional specialist. He explained everything in detail, reassured us, and gave us confidence in a successful outcome. The operation was successful, and her recovery is going well. I would especially like to note the doctor’s humane attitude: he not only provided excellent medical care, but also personally helped my grandmother — supporting her and taking her by the arm when she was learning to walk after the operation. This was very important and meaningful to our family. Thank you for your work, kindness, and high level of professionalism! We wish you good health, strength, and many grateful patients.

I was admitted to the department as planned for pacemaker replacement. Cardiologist Nikita Sergeyevich Remizov was assigned as my attending physician. From the first days of my stay in the department, the doctor made a very good impression. Nikita Sergeyevich was attentive to my condition, regularly asked how I was feeling, and explained in detail every stage of the treatment and the upcoming procedure. I would especially like to note how calmly and clearly he explains everything. He answers questions, does not rush, and makes sure that the patient truly understands what is being done and why. Before my pacemaker replacement, it was especially important for me to feel calm and confident. Thanks to the doctor’s attentive approach, I did not experience unnecessary anxiety and understood that I was under the care of a competent specialist. My treatment fully met my expectations. The procedure went well, and I am feeling well after the treatment. I am very grateful to Nikita Sergeyevich for his professionalism, attentiveness, patience, and humane attitude. Among his strengths, I would especially note his competence, responsibility, kindness, and ability to communicate with patients. I did not notice any shortcomings in the doctor’s work. Many thanks to Nikita Sergeyevich for his work and care! I wish him professional success, good health, and many grateful patients. It is very reassuring when your attending physician inspires trust and confidence.

I would like to thank Gleb Irlamovich Kim and the entire cardiac surgery team at the Pirogov Clinic. I underwent bypass surgery, and everything went very well. I have now recovered and am being discharged. Gleb Irlamovich is an excellent cardiac surgeon. I will recommend this specialist and the clinic to others!

I had problems with my mitral valve and required open-heart surgery. The day before the operation, Alexey Alexandrovich Filippov discussed all my concerns with me and clearly explained the surgery and the recovery process afterward. Since the valve could not be preserved, it had to be replaced with a prosthetic valve. Alexey Alexandrovich explained the differences between mechanical and biological prosthetic valves. Since I had previously suffered strokes, he recommended a biological prosthesis, and I agreed with him. The operation was successful, and I was transferred to the ward very quickly. Alexey Alexandrovich visited me often, changed my dressings, and monitored the healing of the wound. Everything went very quickly and smoothly. Thank you very much!
