A. Semashko National Research Institute of Public Health2025<p>In the first decade of the 20th century, the development of first Russian therapeutic elite has began. In addition to the recognized leaders (V. N. Sirotinin, V. P. Obraztsov, V. D. Shervinsky), this elite included a number of outstanding doctors of the second echelon. Leonid Efimovich Golubinin, a professor at Moscow University, should also be counted among them.
