Petersburg: Cardiac surgeon commented on dismissal reports

The head of the department of the Children's City Hospital No. 1 and the chief children's cardiac surgeon in St. Petersburg Ruben Movsesyan wrote an appeal due to information about the coercion by the administration to quit. The text of the appeal was published by the founder of the Dobryakov Club of Maria Subant.

According to Movsesyan, at the moment there are no documents on dismissal and "assurances from the leadership that dismissal is no longer planned." "There is no confidence that again there will be no attempts to change the staffing, remove the doctors from the work of doctors and take third -party managers at this time, patients and the whole country," writes the cardiac surgeon.

According to him, the conflict between the hospital, the administration of the hospital and the healthcare committee became the "public property" when personnel issues began to affect the treatment of patients.

Movsesyan hopes that the administration of the hospital will not dismiss or hire employees “without taking into account the opinions of employees”, and the healthcare committee will increase quotas for the detachment of cardiology so that parents do not look for money for operations for their children.

“We will be grateful if we are helped with the acquisition of new equipment, ventilation, air conditioning in the operating room. We are the only hospital in the country where there is a cardiac surgery and there is no sanitary inspectioner in the operating block,” Movsesyan wrote.

Last week , it became known that the administration of the children's city hospital forces Ruben Movsesyan to quit. Parents of children who are patients of Movsesyan and doctors of his department created a petition demanding not to dismiss Movsesyan. During the day, the petition scored more than 10 thousand signatures, at the moment the document was signed by more than 28 thousand people. Later, the Health Committee called the unreliable news about the dismissal of the medic.

Ruben Movsesyan performed more than 2.5 thousand operations. For the first time in Russia, he conducted operations with complex heart defects using thermal imaging control. The department of the hospital in St. Petersburg, which is headed by Movsesyan, specializes in the treatment of patients with extremely low weight.
