Verified review.
My father has a liposarcoma recognised as inoperable in Russia. The consultation was dictated by the fact that the coordinator told us that the doctor did not rule out the possibility of surgery and that he needed to see the patient. At the consultation it turned out that the doctor had not even looked at the CT scan and that there was no question of any surgery. I had asked the coordinator and the doctor's assistant about the CT scan a day before the consultation. The video session was from my phone. The doctor read the conclusion, which was made by doctors in Russia, in the conclusion itself floated, including those complications that do not exist, but which according to the conclusion allegedly found on ultrasound. The whole story - banal and disgusting siphoning money from the dying. Do not fall for it.
