I had pain on the left side of my chest and my blood pressure had been rising frequently lately. Through my private medical insurance, I requested an appointment with a cardiologist and was scheduled with Dr. Vera Valeryevna Povarenkina. The doctor was kind and attentive. She prescribed medication to stabilize my blood pressure, ordered all necessary tests to properly assess my condition, and gave recommendations to improve my well-being. We need more professionals like her. The main strength of Dr. Vera Valeryevna’s work is her expertise, her ability to clearly explain the risks of improper self-treatment, to make a correct diagnosis, and to warn about possible consequences in a professional and tactful manner.

Heart attack. I was admitted under a government quota from Bryansk. Urgent surgery was required — 98% stenosis. I recovered quickly after the operation, for which I am very grateful. Thank you very much! The bypass surgery was performed brilliantly.

I was admitted for coronary angiography, and a stent was placed. Everything was done carefully, with genuine attention to the patient. It is pleasant that he is young yet experienced. I can definitely recommend him, as well as the Pirogov Clinic overall.

Last spring, I felt pain behind my sternum for the first time. I had never experienced this before. I consulted a doctor, underwent coronary vessel examination, and was told that surgery was necessary. On January 26, I underwent coronary artery bypass surgery. I would like to express my deep gratitude to Gleb Irlamovich. He performed the operation together with cardiac surgeon Alexey Alexandrovich. Thank you for your work and the excellent surgery performed! I would also like to thank the entire medical staff of the Pirogov Clinic. Thank you very much!
