Investigators in Makhachkala opened a criminal case on the fact of illegal provision of medical services, which led to the deterioration of the patient’s health. This was reported in the investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of Russia in the Republic of Dagestan.

According to the investigation, on September 22 this year, the suspect, along with other persons, performed an operation in a private clinic on Gazpromnaya Street in Makhachkala – a 64-year-old woman underwent a surgical facelift.
