Celebrities among patients of Dr. Ilya Pekarsky

There are a lot of famous personalities of culture and sport among patients of doctor Pekarsky. For example, Moscow director and filmmaker Vyacheslav Govorukhin was completely healed by Dr. Pekarsky and left his crutches forever. Among the patients of doctor Pekarsky, there are also the two players of the Russian national ice hockey team. Both were recovered well after surgery and continued to play for the national team. The doctor also operated famous players of the Spanish basketball clubs, which they have continued their career. Perhaps the most amazing clinical experience and success of Dr. Pekarsky is the operation, after which patients have returned to military aviation, where the load on the spine is much higher than sports.

One of the most famous patients of Dr. Pekarsky is the two-time Olympic champion in figure skating Yevgeny Plushenko. Dr. Ilya Pekarsky restored athlete spine a few times, returning skaters to the sport. In March 2016 in Yevgeny’s spine herniated disc was diagnosed between the 6th and 7th cervical vertebrae, which was pressing on a nerve, disordering the movement in his left hand. Immediately after the examination, the operation has been successfully performed by Dr. Pekarsky, after which within six weeks a special detachable collar was prescribed for the athlete, in which he had to sleep and move around in order to avoid relapse. Within three months of rehabilitation and swimming exercises, the skater was able to go on with simple figure skating elements and to start a normal training six months later. Undoubtedly, the case of Evgeny Plushenko can be considered as yet another victory of the high professionalism of Dr. Ilya Pekarsky.

It is not surprising that among the patients seeking help from a doctor Pekarsky, a lot of people from Russia and CIS countries, as it is not so often abroad when you can communicate with the doctor in your native language without any difficulty. Definitely, this fact is another argument to seek medical help for spinal problems in leading Israeli private hospital “Herzliya Medical Center”, which has recently been running with Dr. Ilya Pekarsky.
