I would like to express my deep gratitude to the entire team of cardiac surgeons, and especially to Dr. Gleb Irlamovich Kim, for the heart surgery performed — aortic valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting. I am very glad that I ended up in the hands of such outstanding specialists. Dr. Kim explained to me in detail how the surgery would be performed, what exactly he would do, what to expect after the operation, and how the recovery process would proceed. For many years I suffered from shortness of breath and angina, and even though not much time has passed since the surgery, I already notice significant improvement and feel much better. With respect, Ivanchenko V.M.

I was denied a urological operation due to heart rhythm disturbances. On the recommendation of acquaintances, I turned to Dr. Vera Valeryevna. The doctor listened carefully, thoroughly reviewed all my test results and examinations, and provided a consultative conclusion according to which I underwent a course of treatment. After taking the prescribed medications for a month, I am now ready for surgery. She is a doctor from God. I wish her good health and success in her difficult work — thank you so much! I will recommend this doctor to everyone in the future.What I liked: Professionalism, politeness, and attentive attitude toward patients.

I was urgently hospitalized for aortic valve replacement and was assigned Dr. V.V. Balakhonov as my attending physician. He is a true professional who provided qualified medical care. During consultations, he was very tactful. After the operation, he visited me daily, giving advice on how to recover faster. Upon discharge, he clearly and thoroughly explained my further treatment plan and medication regimen.

The operation was performed by cardiac surgeon Dr. Gleb Irlamovich Kim, and I would like to express my deep gratitude to all the clinic staff — especially to Dr. Kim, not only for performing an excellent operation after which I already feel improvement, but also for monitoring me daily after surgery and keeping track of my condition. Thank you for your care and patience with patients! What I liked: Attentive and responsible medical staff, good food, and clean wards.

After severe stress, I began experiencing heart problems. Fortunately, a cardiac surgeon from St. Petersburg, Dr. Ruslan Yusufovich Kappushev, came to our city for consultations. After an examination, he recommended valve replacement surgery. He is a doctor from God and a person with a big heart. Thank you so much, Dr. Ruslan Yusufovich — thanks to you, I have a second life. I recommend this doctor to everyone. With respect, Aybazova Lyuba. What I liked: Competent, attentive, and a true professional.
