From the doctors to the nurses and all other personell in this hospital ALL are competent, very polite and friendly - the only small criticism that I have is that unfortunately many don't speak English very well, that's a great shame.

There are more than 70 targeted drugs, less than 20 are registered in the CIS countries. Abroad, thanks to a large selection of drugs, it is possible to undergo treatment that is most effective in a particular case.
