Peculiarities of working with patients

‘A doctor should clearly explain the patient the severity of the situation, his diagnosis and a certain plan of further action. Excessive medical terminology sometimes frightens very much making patients look for health problems that do not really exist. In this case the patient can ‘earn’ a psychosomatic sickness. This directly concerns the parents of little children.’

‘A doctor should find an approach not only to a child, but also to his family (mothers, in particular), so that an examination has not left negative emotional impression (screaming, crying, hysterical) on a child.’

About trends in pediatrics

‘Presently, the number of children who often get ill and children with persistent herpes virus infection increases greatly. Most of them simply require vaccination.’

‘Children often suffer from acute respiratory infections, diseases of the genitourinary system, the gastrointestinal tract. There are also anomalies in the constitution of children.’

A piece of advice for patients

‘I highly recommend that you look after own health and food, conduct prevention of respiratory diseases, regularly monitor own health condition by means of any methods available (spa treatment, vitamin) and of course – a healthy lifestyle.’
