The profession of a doctor has always been prestigious and important, because as the great Hippocrates said: “Treatment of a disease requires not only the art of a doctor and medicine, but also a lot of care and affection towards the patient.”
Those who study, or only dream of studying medicine, at Odesa National Medical University can personally touch the history of domestic medicine, get acquainted with the life and activities of great doctors not only from textbooks and books. For example, future ophthalmologists have a unique opportunity to study at the department founded by the genius Volodymyr Filatov, visit the operating room where he performed many surgical interventions, walk through the corridors of the institute built by Volodymyr Petrovych, and feel the real Filatov atmosphere in the Doctor’s Memorial House-Museum.
