About work
“I completely agree with the opinion of the Russian writer Vikenty Veresaev: “A doctor can have a huge talent, know how to perceive the finest details of his or her prescriptions, and all this will be fruitless without the skill to captivate and compel the patient’s soul.” I think it is important to give patient as much information on his or her health condition and possible outcomes as possible to achieve the shared desire for coping with the problem.”
About interests
