What is the purpose of the consultation?
The purpose of independent professor consultation is both to obtain the first medical opinion on the patient's current state of health, to indicate the further path of disease diagnosis, as well as to verify or possibly change the currently used method of treatment in patients who already have full medical documentation. Thanks to many years of experience in treating the most difficult cases, the professor is able to indicate the optimal method of patient treatment during the consultation.
