I would like to express my deep gratitude to Dmitry Shmatov and his team for their hard work. I underwent a planned CABG surgery at the Pirogov Clinic on Fontanka. I don’t have anything to compare it to, but thanks to the excellent operation, I spent just 8 days in the clinic, including the surgery day. I think this speaks volumes — first and foremost about doctor Shmatov's high level of professionalism. He is also a responsive and attentive doctor, always willing to answer all questions without rushing. Once again, thank you very much! I’m confident that moving forward, I will be able to live comfortably and without pain. I especially appreciated his attentiveness, empathy, and ease of communication.
