On October 6, 2025, I was admitted to the Pirogov Clinic for a scheduled procedure, and on October 7, I underwent a minimally invasive heart vessel stenting surgery. The operation was performed by the remarkable surgeon Dr. Alexey Sergeyevich Vasilyev. It was my first experience of this kind. I felt a bit nervous in the operating room, but Dr. Alexey Sergeyevich reassured me with his words and gave me confidence that I was in good hands. The operation was successfully completed — as they say among naval pilots, it was “top-class flying!” After the procedure, Dr. Vasilyev spoke with me, explained my anatomical features, told me what type of stent was used, and gave detailed recommendations for recovery. I am currently feeling well. Alexey Sergeyevich, thank you so much! You are a surgeon from God! I wish you good health, success, and new professional achievements! I would also like to express my deep gratitude to all the medical staff of the Pirogov Clinic on Fontanka. Everyone there is a true professional in their field! What I liked: Politeness. Attentiveness. Sincere care. Many thanks to everyone!
