Medicine in Ukraine

The history of the Ukrainian medicine began in the XI century AD. Already then at monasteries, temples and church arrivals the shelters rendering all necessary help to those who needed it were created. Three eyelids later in Ukraine there were also first hospitals.

The medical science of Ukraine can be proud of the great scientists who have made a huge contribution to formation of medicine at the international level. So, it is necessary to mention Nikolay Amosov – the innovator and the pioneer in the field of cardiology; the person who became one of the first doctors practising surgical intervention at treatment of heart diseases, and thus impulsed all modern medicine of heart.

Also huge contribution to development of medicine was made by Alexander Bogomolets. It could change idea of mankind of growth and development of tumors in a root, having created the innovative doctrine about tumor and organism interaction. The best medical university of Ukraine which is in Kiev – the Kiev national medical university was called in Alexander Bogomolets name.

In modern Ukraine to medicine development also it is given particular attention in a state policy. The principal organ supervising medicine, the Ministry of health protection of Ukraine is: moz.gov.ua

Numerous reforms of medical system were in recent years carried out. New medical institutions in large quantities open, the new modern equipment is bought.

In base of state programs of health protection providing the population with high-quality medical services of new generation has very big importance. Newborns, children and students regularly pass all necessary inspections. At universities of Ukraine the separate policlinics and the hospitals are created, capable to accept all needing and to render necessary medical care.

From personal experience

Vishal Ratnakar, theoretical physicist (India-Ukraine)
I graduated from Kharkiv State University in 1991. The Kharkiv School of Theoretical Physics was known throughout the world. Now I work as a consulting engineer at an international company. My knowledge of the Ukrainian mentality and the skills of gripping any subject quickly, which I acquired at the university, have proven very helpful in my current job. The only recommendation I have for my countrymen who are going to come to Ukraine to study is that you must learn, first and foremost, that the front passenger seat in a car here is on the right side. The rest is easy to learn.

Firsthand

Wu Li, Manager (China-Ukraine)
This year I have graduated from a higher educational institution in Kyiv and obtained a diploma. Currently, I am an intern at an international travel company operating in Ukraine. In the future, I plan to manage the business of a Chinese company in Ukraine’s market. I have the necessary knowledge for this, and cooperation between our two countries is on the rise. Besides, I have many good friends here. I would like to warn my compatriots who want to come to Ukraine that winters here are the same as in the northern provinces of China. So, do not forget warm clothes. But it is much warmer in the houses.

Not from hearsay

Olga Nemirovskaya, future lawyer (Russia-Ukraine)
Two years ago I decided to enter an educational institution in Kyiv and now I am here, studying. First, it is cheaper than in Moscow. Second, I have relatives and friends here who can support me. And third, I looked for new impressions, new places, and new discoveries. Kyiv proved the right choice for me. It combinesbeauty, antiquity, and the rapid rhythm of life typical of other big cities! I would like to say to my countrymen who are contemplating study in Ukraine that I study here in Russian and communicate in Russian as well. As for Ukrainian, it is a friendly and understandable language. I can already speak it a little. It’s cool!
