Chief physician of the Russian Federation Savinov gave clarifications on a burning issue that worries all patients

May 23, 2023

The head physician of the Mislavsky Central City Hospital No. 2, Konstantin Savinov, explained why patients, before getting to narrow specialists, must definitely go through a therapist.

The specialist noted that this question is asked a lot and privately, but it is worth paying attention to it again.

“This rule is dictated by federal law, but it is absolutely correct,” Savinov said.

According to him, out of 10 patients who are sure that they need to see a narrow specialist, two or three people need real help. Other problems can be successfully solved at the level of the district therapist.

In addition, it makes no sense to go to a narrow-profile doctor without tests with simple complaints. Diagnosis should take place taking into account the most complete information, therefore all records and consultations take place exclusively through the base doctor – therapist, the portal writes. “E1.RU” .
