Immediately after finishing his long training, he started working as a doctor, applying the knowledge he gained in practice. “Stanislav managed the difficult task of writing a book on a very complex topic in a simple and understandable language without losing the necessary depth of understanding of the problem and discussing many nuances that occur in autoimmune thyroiditis.
