Successfully existing personal life of the surgeon did not give him to fall in spirit. With the future wife, he met, still being a young novice specialist. Anna comes from Georgia. In 2002, they got married, and in 2005 the first daughter was born. The second child was a woman presented her husband in 2012, and their first son was born in 2017. There are no other children.
Upon learning of the diagnosis of Andrei, the eldest daughter was crying a lot. Over time, the situation has normalized. Looking at the optimism of a man, the female half of the family tries not to lose heart and maintain Pavlenko in everything. After the operation, together with the family, the doctor visited his homeland in Batumi.
The medicine
The dream to become a surgeon appeared at Andrei in the 1st grade under unusual circumstances. The boy was at school, there was a music lesson. The teacher played the piano excerpt the composition "Requiem" Mozart and at the same time asked students to close his eyes and present the picture that they are in the operating room, on the table lies the patient to whom Surgeons save lives.In this music there were moments where the struggle of good with evil - life and death was clearly traced. Since it was "Requiem", at the end of the game the teacher explained that death defeated here, and the doctors lost. After Pavlenko had mixed feelings and did not understand - why death defeated. And to prove that the doctors can win, firmly decided that when it grows, prove it.
Since then, a lot of time has passed before Andrei graduated from school and entered the Military Medical Academy. For the first time to get to the operation and see how it passes, he managed on the 2nd course of study.
The young man arrived at the St. Petersburg Research Institute of Ambulance named after I. Janelidze, surgeons just spent there on appendectomy (removal of appendix). Looking into the wound of the patient, the student was horrified, on his still inexperienced opinion everything looked shapeless and red. Then the young man surprised how the doctors are distinguished by one body from another.
At the end of the Military Medical Academy, it was time to give duty homeland. By distribution, he fell into the Vladikavkaz military hospital and already there has acquired the first experience of treating wounds. Padlso patients were infantry and arrows. After graduating, the doctor returned to the Academy and entered the residency. According to Andrei's stories, it was not possible to obtain sufficient practices there, because due to problems with the financing of the army of patients did not bring there.
Such work did not bring financial stability. And since by the time Andrew already had a family that was required to feed, he could not allow him to work for a penny. The salaries of a young doctor grabbed only at the removal of a tiny room in the suburbs of St. Petersburg, the rest of the money went on the content just gave birth to a child.
Yes, and professional prospects in this place were absent. So he decided to leave a military business and go to the "free" swimming, however, did this man with reluctance. Then he had already wore the title of Captain of Medical Service, dismissal from the army took a year and a half.
So Pavlenko found himself in civil order and at the same time looking for funds for paid training. Upon gratuitous conditions settled in the regional oncodynser, where he looked at the work of professionals and tried to adopt experience. After graduating from the reinforcement, there remained working. His formation as a professional-oncologist happened 10 years.
For a long time, he simply assisted the chief physician and at the same time received the necessary knowledge for independent work in the future. And soon he managed to operate the patient for the first time. Moreover, the man was supposed to be only an assistant, but the surgeon lost to Andrey the place, and he himself got up for his back. In the next operation, the situation repeated, however, it was already more complicated than the first.
Everything ended with a good doctor. He operated on two patients without help, after which he was hired. For many years of work in the hospital, spending 2.5 thousand operations, the beginning of the Internet has become a graduate specialist who took the position of head in the clinic of high medical technologies named after N. I. Pirogov at St. Petersburg State University.
Disease
Working for many years in the field of oncology, Dr. Pavlenko did not transfer patient diseases, and therefore could not and assume that it would once be in the operating room not as a surgeon, but as a patient. Therefore, periodically emerging pain in the stomach Andrei regarded as a consequence of improper nutrition due to the work schedule.
A man was cut a number of standard gastric preparations, but it did not help. And then he had to go to Gastroscopy. Here it became clear that the man had a tumor, the biopsy confirmed the 3rd stage of the progressive cancer. Hence the history of his illness and the struggle for life began.
As an experienced doctor, Pavlenko quickly took himself in his hands and independently built a treatment plan. Despite the state of health, even before the start of the course of chemotherapy, a man continued to operate oncological patients. At the same time, the doctor began to blog, talking about the stages of treatment, condition, feelings, thoughts. In addition, he appeared in the gears of Elena Malysheva "Live Great!" And on the first channel of Andrei Malakhov in the "live broadcast." In September 2018, a man conducted an operation to remove the stomach.
