I am Ekaterina Putkaradze 08.04.1998 year of birth.
 I am Georgian from Moscow. I am currently located, study and work in Moscow, Russia. First of all, I would like to introduce myself to you: My passion has always been to help people, and that is why I have chosen this meaningful and demanding profession.
I am an alumni from the Russian National Research Medical University named after N.I.Pirogov, Pediatrics. I went through residency of the Department of Otorhinolaryngology of the Moscow Regional Research Clinical Institute named after M. F. Vladimirsky (61/2, bld. 1, Shchepkina str., Moscow, 129110, Russia). At the moment I work there and I’m writing my PhD dissertation. I also work in Federal state autonomous institution «National Medical Research Center for Children's Health» of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation (Lomonosovsky prospekt 2, bldg. 1, Moscow, 119991, Russia) and some private clinics.

Innovation - involving more and more doctors in the development of laryngology, the search for modern treatment of laryngeal pathologies - is very important to me.
Striving for excellence, sharing of knowledge, dedication, leadership qualities, kindness and the desire to learn are all part of my professional image. A strong internal need to move up the career ladder completes my profile. I have a wonderful curator Djavanshir Mustafayev PhD, laryngologist, ENT oncologist, pediatric surgeon and a supervisor Victor Egorov
MD, Chief Researcher, Head of the Head and Neck Department, Head of the Chair of Otorhinolaryngology, 
Honored Doctor of the Russian Federation, Member of the Board of the Russian Association of Otorhinolaryngologists, Member of the 
Specialized Commission on Otorhinolaryngology of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, Vladimirsky Moscow Regional 
Research and Clinical Institute, phone 8 (925) 509-20-10.



In our clinic we treat such rare diseases as laryngeal amyloidosis, laryngeal chondroma, laryngeal papillomatosis, various benign formations of the larynx and
 we also provide rehabilitation for the rapid restoration of voice. I have been keen on the subject of laryngology from the time I was a student at my university. And I would like to convey this love to our audience by expanding knowledge about diseases of the larynx and the possibilities of voice rehabilitation.
