This visit continues a series of visits by Alexander Lukashenko to medical institutions in the country. The President visits young patients with the most difficult diagnoses. Doctors are fighting for the most valuable thing, the life of a child. Children and adolescents from all over the country are brought here for treatment. The head of state was told about the state and development of the center. The President visited scientific laboratories. He also talked to the guys who had undergone surgeries.
Kids and adolescents received gifts today: after all, not everyone will be lucky to celebrate the New Year with their families. Alexander Lukashenko did not miss the opportunity to personally encourage the children. For every family, the oncology diagnosis of a child is a difficult test. The Republican Scientific and Practical Center for Pediatric Oncology was opened in 1997. The center contributed to the development of this area of medicine. It is necessary to improve the material base to achieve great success. The clinic needs a separate surgical building. Doctors are confident that in this way they will be able to help their patients more effectively.
Alexander Lukashenko also answered questions from doctors and journalists.
