It is important, that at the conference platform of the regional branch of the Society of doctors of Russia, practicing doctors have opportunity to speak out, talk about their problems and share their opinions. Problems, that are heard today becoming really of a wide spread. Doctors have to leave their work, some of them move to another region and successfully work therein.
