Dmitriy Shmatov

Many thanks to Dmitry Viktorovich for the successful complex surgery involving multiple bypass grafts on my heart. The operation took place on May 29, 2026, and within a day I was transferred from the ICU to the ward. A week later, I was already home. Now I understand the expression “golden hands” much better. My cardiac history began back in 2002, when I suffered a heart attack at the age of 35 without realizing it at the time. Dmitry Viktorovich understood my situation, explained all the risks and the need for intervention — after all, two arteries were completely blocked and the third was 50% blocked — made the only correct decision, and carried it out in practice. I went to the professor without anxiety, because, according to a knowledgeable friend, there is probably no better professional in St. Petersburg. Once again, thank you to all the staff, and especially to Professor D. V. Shmatov, for the surgery and treatment.
