On May 8, at the age of 43, a doctor, candidate of medical sciences Aleksey Kharchuk died.

A talented surgeon successfully performed planned and emergency, abdominal and laparoscopic operations. He was a real professional. Friendly, cheerful, polite, sincere and responsive - he was respected, appreciated by colleagues and patients.

“The tragic news came to us today.” Our colleague Aleksey Kharchuk, the head of the department of the Yusupov hospital, who until 2019 worked in our surgical department, died. He was 43 years old. A talented doctor, golden hands. Coronavirus kills the lives of many people, and every day among them there are more and more of our colleagues, medical workers.

“Professional duty - no heroism” ... Unfortunately, now you can often find such reasoning. Yes, he just did his job and did it perfectly. And like all health workers, he took risks every day and every moment. Just doing his job. And did not survive. Bright memory!
