In August 2025, I had an appointment with the doctor regarding angina. The doctor recommended surgical intervention. He was attentive, appropriately serious, and competent. He inspired trust, and I decided to go ahead with the operation. On the day of my hospitalization, I requested for Vasily Vasilyevich to be my attending physician. He explained everything, told me about the surgery plan and further treatment. During all the days I spent in the clinic, I felt the doctor’s care and attention. Thank you to all the clinic staff and to my doctor, Dr. V. V. Balakhonov. Strength, health, prosperity, and well-being in everything. A true doctor and a true human being! I will definitely recommend him as a competent and kind-hearted specialist. 11/07/2025.

I consulted with cardiac surgeon Gleb Irlamovich in October of this year regarding coronary artery bypass surgery. He explained to me in detail the nature of the operation, how to behave afterward, and what would happen if I refused it. The doctor listened attentively and answered all my questions. The surgery was scheduled for October 31 and was performed by Dr. Gleb Irlamovich Kim and his team. I am very grateful to all of them for their excellent work, their kind attitude toward patients, and their care. I plan to follow all prescribed recommendations and can confidently recommend Dr. Gleb Irlamovich as a cardiac surgeon and a wonderful person!

I was referred by the Smolensk Regional Clinical Hospital for CABG. I was admitted to the Pirogov Clinic on October 20, 2025, and on the same day, the operation was performed. Wonderful attitude from the very first minutes until discharge. On October 20, 2025, Alexey Alexandrovich Filippov, together with his colleague, performed the heart surgery, gave competent recommendations, and was always in contact with me. Dear Alexey Alexandrovich! From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for your highest professionalism, sensitivity, and mastery. Thank you very much for your invaluable work. With deep respect and sincere gratitude, Borisova Galina Nikolaevna

I had heart surgery (bypass) in October this year, after many years of suffering from heart pain. I am grateful to Alexey Alexandrovich for explaining to me in detail before the operation what it consists of, how it would be performed, and what would happen afterward. After I woke up in the ICU, he explained to me that the operation had been completed successfully, and that once I was transferred to the ward, he would be supervising me. I am very grateful to him! It is very difficult to decide on heart surgery, but thanks to cardiac surgeons like him, you can feel calm and confident.
