Dobrobut medical network and Superhumans center for prosthetics and reconstructive surgery signed a memorandum of understanding and cooperation, under which patients who applied for prosthetics in Superhumans and need additional treatment before prosthetics, will receive medical care in the treatment and diagnostic center “Dobrobut”.
Superhumans patients can also receive physical rehabilitation at Dobrobut’s rehabilitation department, according to a press release from the nurse network.
Patients will receive treatment at no cost, thanks to the support of the Direct Relief and Dobrobut Foundation charities.
Dobrobut emphasized that during the full-scale war, the number of amputations in Ukraine tripled on average compared to previous years.
“Today there are more than 300 patients waiting for prosthetics at Superhumans Center. Of these, about 20% need additional treatment and surgeries for stump formation and preparation for prosthetics. That is why close cooperation and exchange of experience between Superhumans, which helps Ukrainians with amputations to get quality prostheses, and the medical network “Dobrobut”, which provides high-quality modern medical care, is so important today”, – emphasized in “Dobrobut”.
“Dobrobut is one of the largest private medical networks in Ukraine. The network includes 17 medical centers in Kyiv and Kyiv region, emergency service, dentistry and pharmacies. Medical centers of the network provide services for children and adults in more than 75 medical fields. Dobrobut specialists perform more than 7,000 surgeries annually. The network employs 2,700 employees.
Since the first days of the war, Dobrobut’s medical and diagnostic center in Kiev has been providing free 24/7 urgent medical care to Ukraine’s defenders and the population. Thanks to the activities of the Direct Relief International and Dobrobut Foundation charitable foundations, the Dobrobut Treatment and Diagnostic Center can provide free medical care to wounded military personnel and people stranded by war. “Dobrobut was the first private network in Ukraine to receive funding from the U.S. federal government. With the support of the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), Dobrobut will build a state-of-the-art physical rehabilitation center.
Superhumans Center is an all-Ukrainian modern center for prosthetics, reconstructive surgery, rehabilitation and psychological support of war-affected adults and children. All services of the center are free of charge.
The mission of Superhumans is to build high-quality expertise in prosthetics and high-tech medical interventions in Ukraine, to bring the best medical practices to Ukraine.
The first Superhumans Center started operating in Lviv in April 2023, and since then about 40 patients have been prosthetized. The center has its own prosthesis production facility equipped with Ottobock, a rehabilitation department, a swimming pool, a hydrotherapy department, and a psychological support department. A reconstructive surgery department will also be operational in the near future. There are also plans to open Superhumans clinics in other Ukrainian cities.
