I want to thank my wonderful surgeon from the bottom of my heart for giving me back my full life! When I came to him with a hand deformity, I couldn't even hope for such a stunning result.
The doctor performed a true miracle – my hand now not only functions as before, but also looks beautiful thanks to modern prosthetics. Every movement is effortless, and it's an incredible feeling of freedom!
Special thanks for the caring attitude, patience, and detailed explanations at every stage of the treatment. Now I can confidently say: my hand is in good hands, and this is thanks to the professionalism and care of this wonderful specialist.
Thank you for your talent, skill, and kind heart! You don't just treat – you give people the opportunity to live a full life. I sincerely recommend this doctor to anyone in need of qualified care.

Dr Shubinets basically rebuilt my entire left arm after saving it. Could not have had better care anywhere. He would actually call me to check up on me.
