chief doctor

The Chief Physician of Botkin State Clinical Hospital was the head of Botkin State Clinical Hospital. Botkina, MD, Professor and Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences - Alexei Shabunin. The chief physician of the Botkin Polyclinic has not only a large number of professional awards, but also a wide range of practical experience. He is a highly qualified medical specialist who has been awarded numerous orders and medals and his main specialty is surgery.

He has been a medical doctor since 1984 and holds a number of medical qualifications. The portfolio of the specialist includes a large number of internships, which he completed in Munich, Boston, Rome, Tokyo and Seoul, among others. The deputy chief physician, Evgeny Nikitin, also has a large number of orders.

What if I'm not in the unit register either?

Even if you have not only forgotten or lost your policy and even if you are not entered in the uniform CMI register, you are not in a fix. In this case, the outpatient clinic and specialist medical care are financed from the provincial budgets. Furthermore, denying newborns medical care before they have an MHI policy is unacceptable: such young patients are treated under the mother's or other legal representative's policy.

The minimum scope of care is described in the MHI basic program. Each region decides what to add to this list.

What can and cannot be done with the policy:

You can check the exact list at any health center or on the website of your region's Ministry of Health.
It's easy to apply the following rule to your insurance policy: if you have a life or health risk, you can get it for free. If you're not feeling too bad in general, but would like to feel even better, you can pay for it out of pocket.

Can a doctor write a prescription for a drug without having a policy?

The doctor has the right to issue a prescription for anyone who needs it, both in the MHI system and in the case of paid medical services.

Imagine the situation: you have a cast on your leg, you need an X-ray, and this is on the third floor and the elevator doesn't seem to be working. And you crawl up the sick stairs like a superhero martyr. That's not the right way to go. The doctor must decide how to transport the patient, taking into account the severity of the disease and possible complications in the course of the disease, and the administration must organize safe transport.
To do this, ask the health center staff to take you to the examination. In the event of a refusal, you have the option of writing a complaint to management, contacting the health insurance company or reporting to the provincial health department and the public prosecutor's office.

Patients with congenital and acquired diseases of the musculoskeletal system and the consequences of injuries are advised by the center's leading specialists, the candidates and doctors of medicine. They take in children and young people with congenital and acquired diseases and injuries to the musculoskeletal system.

As part of a consultative admission, a differential diagnosis of specific clinical cases is made, the indication for one or another treatment method and type of medical care is made, and a review of the results of previous treatment is carried out in the profile departments of the NIC Clinic.

During the visits, the patients are selected for inpatient treatment in the NICU clinics depending on the indication.

When should you see a doctor?

The orthopedic surgeon deals with a number of problems, as well as a variety of treatments and injuries to the skeletal system. Abnormalities in the bones, ligaments, joints, and spine that burden the patient can be caused by congenital injury, infection, or birth defects.

Disorders of the skeletal system develop gradually, which is why the first symptoms of the disease may not become apparent until the stage of severe changes. This is why regular visits to the doctor are so important from an early age.

There is a list of signs that may require a visit to the orthopedist and indicate the presence of problems in the musculoskeletal system:

1. swelling of the joints, accompanied by painful movements;
2. back pain;
3. Poor posture and fatigue;
4. nausea in the extremities;
5. joint stiffness and crunches;
6. Pain and stiffness with changing weather conditions.

The chronic disease leads to regular exacerbations that require regular visits to a specialist. Don't miss a doctor's visit if you've been diagnosed with the following conditions:

• dislocation of the shoulder or knee;
• osteochondrosis;
• injury to the spine;
• osteoarthritis;
• Rheumatoid arthritis;
• Fracture of the femoral neck.

As a preventive measure, a visit to the doctor is recommended for people leading an active lifestyle, for athletes and for people engaged in extreme sports and outdoor activities. A timely visit to the doctor's office makes it possible to diagnose and treat possible micro-injuries, thereby preventing the development of serious pathologies.

Both with acquired changes in the musculoskeletal system and with congenital anomalies, the child needs to see a specialist.

The child needs to see a doctor if:

1. Infant's hip is misaligned (congenital dislocation);
2. a diagnosis of torticollis (the child's head is tilted towards one shoulder);
3. clubfoot (the child walks with the foot in a padded position);
4. Stand;
5. Complaints of pain in your shoulders, back and neck;
6. flat feet.

How to make an appointment

There are a number of ways patients can schedule an appointment with an orthopedist.

One of them is the personal visit to the health center. They will help you to make an appointment with the specialist and will suggest the most convenient appointment for you.

Scheduling an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon is quick and easy through the treatment facility's website. After a short registration, the patient is shown a table with the available appointments. Once the right day has been selected, the patient only has to book the desired time and make an appointment with the orthopedist.

The contact persons can also be found easily on the clinic's website thanks to the convenient navigation. In this section you will find information about the availability of phone numbers and departments in your city. When the patient dials the number, they will be contacted by the medical center staff, who will politely answer any questions and offer an hour during which they can make an appointment with the orthopedist.

Another way to make an appointment with an orthopedist is to use the government service portal, where you have access to an electronic waiting list.

City Clinical Hospital No. 1 in Pyrogov has always held a special place in Moscow's healthcare system. Moscow. It has accumulated a wealth of experience that has been passed down from generation to generation. In the scientific laboratories of the hospital, unique technologies are developed that are at the cutting edge of medical technology.

The trauma department of the hospital operates in two areas: emergency traumatology and orthopedics.

In interventional traumatology, osteosynthesis of fractures of the humerus, forearm, femur, tibia, ankle, pelvis, collarbone, shoulder, patella, heel and calcaneus and foot is performed using modern techniques and different types performed by metal fixators.

Top private clinics

EMC

The European Medical Center (EMC) is the number one private clinic offering technologically advanced treatment. She provides diagnosis and treatment in Moscow according to European and international protocols in accordance with the standards of international evidence-based medicine.

The European Clinic of Sports Traumatology and Orthopedics ECSTO (European Clinic of Sports Traumatology and Orthopedics) is one of the leading private clinics in Russia, the largest private orthopedic clinic in the Russian Federation, working on Western models and international standards in diagnosis, treatment and subsequent Rehabilitation of patients met. We have state-of-the-art medical equipment and the experience and expertise of the best European and Russian doctors. Medical care at the highest international level combined with the service of a 5-star hotel and a caring staff will make your stay in the clinic as pleasant as possible.

The European Clinic of Sports Traumatology and Orthopedics ECSTO (Moscow) is currently one of the few private clinics that has a number of high-tech equipment and a number of advantages that allow it to provide care to patients with diseases and injuries of any complexity.

Medical center MedSwiss

MedSwiss is a network of multidisciplinary medical centers in Moscow and St. Petersburg, which ranks among the ten largest private medical centers in the country. The main principle of MedSwiss is to ensure reliable, timely and highly professional medical assistance.

MedSwiss clinics are staffed by qualified orthopedists and traumatologists. A 24-hour trauma surgery service is also available for emergencies.

Survive the surgery

In most cases, the operation is performed on the day of admission: the person is hospitalized in the morning and operated a few hours later. The duration of a routine procedure depends on the disease in question. In the case of gallstones, for example, it is 40-60 minutes, and in the case of a severe hernia, several hours. After the operation, if everything goes according to plan, the patient returns to the ward.

Endoscopic surgery and modern recovery methods allow the body to experience minimal damage during the operation and to recover quickly afterwards. That's why you can be discharged the same day after a simple operation like removing a gallbladder or a lipoma - right after the anesthesia. In my experience, people who feel healthy are not kept in the hospital.

I've heard stories of patients being discharged from the hospital before they've had time to recover. In my experience, a doctor will not dismiss a person unless they think they are healthy. If this happens, you can complain to the Department of Health and the hospital will be held accountable for their negligence. Hospitals are now required to respond to all complaints and comments, including on social media.

However, I would like to remind you that the patient and the doctor are on the same page and that the apparent disconnect between client and provider only detracts from the treatment process. Medicine has not yet progressed to the point where a doctor can always guarantee a specific treatment result or the absence of complications.

If you feel uncomfortable or think that the doctor has done something wrong, it is better to first seek a face-to-face conversation with him and explain everything. You may not even need to file a complaint.

dismissal

Before you are discharged home, you will receive a discharge report, which is a copy of your medical history detailing everything that was done to you in the hospital. It will also include the doctor's recommendations. You will not be able to do any heavy work for a few weeks after the operation and you may need to follow a special diet. Even the simplest operation is still a great burden on the body, which is then weak for some time. If you ignore your doctor's advice, you risk being hospitalized again.

If you are officially employed, you will receive an electronic medical release 'for outpatient treatment'. You should then go to the surgeon who referred you for surgery or another surgeon on duty. The doctor will assess your condition and, if necessary, extend your sick leave: you have the right to remain at work until you recover.

Many hospitals use cosmetic stitches made from a special thread that dissolves on its own a few days after the operation. However, if these are ordinary seams, then you need to periodically connect them. You don't have to go to the hospital for this, you can do everything in your clinic.
