• “I am an obstetrician-gynecologist providing a full range of modern obstetric and gynecological care according to national and international clinical guidelines (WHO, FIGO, ACOG). I follow an individual approach for each patient: I comprehensively assess health status, use evidence-based medicine without excessive interventions, explain every stage of diagnosis and treatment in detail, and ensure attentive and caring support for you and your future child.”

Doctor's advice:

• “I firmly believe that modern obstetric and gynecological care is not only about tests and examinations but also about trust, calm, and understanding. Most gynecological and obstetric complications are much easier to prevent than to treat. My main advice: do not postpone visiting a doctor, even if you feel fine. After a consultation, you should feel calm, confident, and clearly understand the next steps — without fear, doubts, or unnecessary prescriptions.”
