“I am impressed by your hospital”, said Dr. Gianluca Pontone during a visit to Zan Mitrev Clinic. As a cardiologist and radiologist, he runs the MR Department and he is the Deputy Director of the Cardiovascular CT Department at the Cardiology Center Monzino (Centro Cardiologico Monzino), Italy, which is associated with Milan and the University of Milan. Dr. Pontone came as a lecturer at the Symposium on Acute Coronary Syndrome, organized by the Macedonian Association of Cardiology, which was held on September 4 and 5, 2018, in Skopje.

“I am glad that I have the opportunity to participate in the Symposium in Skopje and that I can visit this hospital, which is very impressive both in terms of size and technology. It is a great honor for me to be here, considering that I am a specialist in cardiac diseases and that the main activity in this hospital is specifically the treatment of this type of diseases”, stated Dr. Pontone after the tour in Zan Mitrev Hospital.

Previously he did not have any information about our hospital, therefore he pointed out that he was very surprised by the high standard and all the possibilities that he managed to see here. Comparing the conditions with the hospitals in Italy, Dr. Pontone underlined that a parallel cannot be made with the average Italian hospitals, but only with the best ones because it is obvious that it is a matter of a modern medical center with an advanced technology.

The meetings with Dr. Zan Mitrev were also attended by Anton Moritz, a Director of the University Cardiovascular Center in Frankfurt, Germany. Experiences and future directions for the development of modern radiology and cardiology were exchanged at the meetings, where a part of the team of Zan Mitrev Clinic also took part.
