I was admitted to the N.I. Pirogov Clinic of High Medical Technologies in early June 2026 for mitral valve replacement surgery. During the examination, it turned out that I also required bypass surgery. Dmitry Viktorovich found a way not to replace my valve with an artificial one, but instead to repair and preserve my own valve. And, of course, he also performed the bypass. I am very grateful to this remarkable surgeon. My only regret is that I did not have the opportunity to thank him personally. Dmitry Viktorovich is an outstanding specialist. I consider myself very fortunate to have been treated by him. Not only was my native valve preserved, which is incomparably better than a prosthetic valve, but the additional bypass was also performed. An excellent result!
