Where to look for relevant and interesting blogs of real doctors? There are two main platforms - LiveJournal (LJ) and Facebook (FB). The first allows you to publish large detailed illustrated articles, the second provides maximum response to them. As an example - five excellent blogs of doctors. We read and enjoy.
"Blog of good psychiatrists"
Blogger: Maxim Malyavin
One of the most popular doctors' diaries in LiveJournal. Why are the authors plural? Because there are two of them. Initially, the psychiatrist Maxim Malyavin began writing the blog, and after a while, posts by his wife Oksana, a colleague at work, began to appear. Both doctors have been working in one of the psychiatric dispensaries in Tolyatti for a long time. Thanks to their posts, the general Internet community is aware in detail not only about the personal life of the cats of the psychiatric dispensary, but also about the behavior of citizens with various mental disorders. Dr. Malyavin's psychiatric tales became so popular that they were published as Notes of a Psychiatrist in two volumes.
Both doctors are actively involved in popularizing their subject. Oksana writes short, but capacious and illustrated by cases, posts, and Maxim several years ago published a popularized manual for medical students and curious citizens “Psychiatry for the people! Doctor - cognac!
Blog "Notes of a resuscitator"
Blogger: Vladimir Shpinev
anesthesiologist-resuscitator Vladimir Shpinev from the city of Belogorsk in the Amur Region. Unlike many of his colleagues, he practically does not discuss hot medical topics. “My magazine is about my work, life, I try not to get into politics, but life develops in such a way that it is impossible to ignore the events taking place in our country, unfortunately they are rarely positive”, he says about himself in the title post.
Entries under the heading "On duty" are the chronicles of a life-saving doctor. Among other topics of the blog are the nuances of anesthesiology in various situations unusual for the layman. "Notes of a resuscitator" is one of the most touching medical blogs in Runet in its vitality. In the rather dry description of the cases that the author encounters on each of his shifts, the fragility of human life and the courage of the doctors who save it are concentrated.
Another popular among the Internet population is blogger Anton Rodionov, cardiologist from Moscow. Anton is also a bard, an avid theater-goer, a traveler and, like many of his other online colleagues in the craft, an author of books. In this regard, the doctor went further than other medical bloggers: the series of books “Academy of Dr. Rodionov” is a collection of, in a way, detailed health education posts on the topic of choosing medicines, deciphering tests and preventing various diseases. Anton Rodionov's blog is a slice of the life of a Moscow doctor, supplemented by articles and discussions on classic controversial medical topics that concern the people, as well as on issues relevant to physicians.
Blog "Russian doctor in the tropics"
Blogger: Alexey Yakovlev
Among the blogs of doctors involved in health education, a special place is occupied by the blog of Alexei Yakovlev, who writes under the nickname botalex,. As the author himself reports in his profile, the blog was originally created for his hobby, far from medicine - botany. However, gradually detailed articles on the most burning medical topics were replaced by descriptions of orchids, tropical animals, as well as voluminous posts on the topic of ballet and painting.
Aleksey Yakovlev describes himself as follows: “I have three specialties: psychiatry for the soul, general practice (aka family medicine) for work, health management to goad others;)”. He has been a media blogger for a long time and even got a page describing his persona in Wikireality.
The user botalex himself clarifies in an introductory post: “The main task of my professional activity is to bring highly specialized medical knowledge to the masses”. His professional investigations on swine flu, bullshit drugs, carcinogens, various infections and free medicine are designed to give the reader an adequate perception of the world. Thus, Alexei Yakovlev successfully debunks various near-medical rumors and legends that run among the population of Russia. And he reinforces this with his appearances on central television in various discussion programs.
Blog "Examination of a military doctor"
Blogger: Alexey Vodovozov
"Observation of a military doctor"- the blog of the former doctor of the medical service of the armed forces of the Russian Federation, and now a popular medical journalist Alexei Vodovozov, the author of the Evil Critic column on Medportal.ru, numerous articles in the magazines Popular Mechanics, Esquire, etc., a multiple winner and prize-winner of blog contests, as well as a participant in various television and radio programs of an educational plan for medicine.
“I carefully and thoughtfully dissect the alternatives, then I tell everyone what I think about it. I respect evidence-based medicine, although I am aware that it is not perfect either, but it was it that made it possible to bring medicine closer to science in the modern sense of the word.” This quote best characterizes the Internet activities of Alexei Vodovozov. For the former military doctor, the war has not ended: he actively opposes any kind of charlatanism in medicine: from "miraculous sugar balls" to "bioresonance diagnostics." His texts are always based on a thorough study of the facts, follow the principles of evidence-based medicine and are aimed at readers who are quite far from the medical profession.
The blogosphere is one of the most popular planets in the internet galaxy. Among the billions of sites, most users opt for these thematic diaries. And this is not surprising. Short, relevant and prompt publications, the ability to comment, and a blogger is a person who replaces a cloud of faceless copywriters. However, this is a characteristic of a quality resource. And there are not so many of these in the vastness of the network. This is especially true for such a common topic as health and medicine.
Especially for those who browse medical sites non-stop, dream of learning how to get rid of a particular disease and read reviews on endless forums, a list of the 10 most interesting blogs on a given topic.
All healthy people love life. This is the slogan chosen by the creators of the project. Conducted by Ksenia Rostova. However, behind the author is a network of multidisciplinary clinics in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region. By the way, local residents have an advantage when visiting the site. They can fill out a special form, thereby signing up for a free telephone consultation with a doctor. However, this site will also appeal to all other lovers of the blogosphere who are interested in medicine and health. Ksenia writes excellently about news from the world of medicine. From under her keyboard deftly and quite often pop up articles about the symptoms of various ailments, and materials about diseases and how to deal with them. The list of experts includes practitioners. This blog is to be trusted.
Pleases with articles about pig genesis and a description of the working days of an ambulance doctor. The lively and sharp language of the author - Andrei, a doctor from Belarus, made his blog extremely popular. With simple human words, he brings into the virtual, and, consequently, into the real world, medical truths about certain diseases.
- one of the highest quality resources about health and medicine. And a stylish blog design, and a diverse selection of materials. This is no longer just a diary, this is a really great Internet product. Health, nutrition, beauty, sports, psychology, sex, family, medicine. A whole mechanism revolves around these topics. Of the minuses - the missing personalization of the authors, and this leads to a small number of comments from users, which is sad with such high-quality content.
Irina Zaitseva was not shy and gave her blog the same name. Although the musician from Yaroslavl was unable to create a resource with an ideal design, she cannot be reproached for the lack of a spiritual atmosphere. The woman is happy to share with the whole world tips on how to do a manicure at home, publishes recipes for natural masks and other natural lotions that can preserve beauty and health. In response - the same warm and homely comments from users and admirers.
This blog is maintained by Elena Samolkina. A mother of two children and a medical worker, while on maternity leave, decided not to waste time, but to get involved in writing useful articles. Read to all mothers. You will learn about everything: how to preserve the natural beauty, what to wear this season, and even what causes hemorrhoids. The author, not at all embarrassed, declares bluntly: I write only about health and about what interests me.
For a continuation of the topic, take a look at. This is a blog of a pediatric anesthesiologist from Odessa, Mikhail Lyubko. On the resource, he publishes materials for colleagues, students and interns. However, parents of babies are often written in the comments. The site exists in Russian and Ukrainian versions.
Pleases everyone: high-quality design, unique content and author's approach. The blogger Yuri Stepanenko is responsible for everything, who, by the way, immediately warns: the site is a hobby. Despite the excellent quality of the texts, the author has no professional relationship with medicine. But thoughtfulness and the ability to filter information make his blog one of the most interesting health portals. It is especially pleasant to read scientific articles. By the way, being carried away by website scamming, the guy was not at a loss, and a year after creating his personal blog elvensou1.ru, he opened another portal truehealth.ru on the Internet. And after that, he started writing the book. We wish him good luck and go to explore other blogs.
Hosted by 74-year-old Valentin Davituliani. The blogger's photo posted on the main page makes you carefully study the materials of the site. The author looks great, and, therefore, you want to trust his advice. He himself is sure: the key to success in the right way of life. What exactly he means by this concept, you will learn from his numerous and very interesting posts. Aesthetes may be disappointed when they see the design of the site. But here it is worth remembering the good old truth about inner beauty and the importance of semantic content.
I was surprised by the discrepancy between the blog name and its author. Evgenia Smolyanaya, a psychologist and philosopher, regularly replenishes her resource with materials on a healthy lifestyle. At the same time, the blogger emphasizes: both the physical and psychological components are equally important. It's hard not to agree. It remains only to be upset that the site has not been updated since May of this year. Let's hope that the author comes to his senses and returns to the search for truth in the field of health and beauty.
How to be happy in love and sex? Yuri Prokopenko decided to provide you with the answer to this question in his blog. Doctor - sexologist and sexopathologist, psychotherapist and journalist in one person. Armed with so many regalia, a researcher at the Moscow Research Institute of Psychiatry writes about the most intimate moments of the relationship between a man and a woman. Add to bookmarks: . By the way, the author saved you from the need to spoil your eyesight. The site contains audio files.
Scientific facts, medical advice and folk recipes. You will find all this in the highest quality format on the Internet and specifically in these 10 blogs.

https://youtu.be/p3kNmPbobio
From a popular YouTube channel Maria Way already over 3 million subscribers. Masha Wei's main weapon is beauty. The videos are dedicated to events from the private life of Masha Wei, make-up, clothing choices, the opinions of the blog author about certain events.
Today beauty care and beauty bloggers in Russia are actively working on the development of their pages, accounts and channels. They get good money for it. But such a goal can be achieved only with the help of great efforts.
A very famous blog in LiveJournal. It is led by a dermatovenereologist from Ukraine, the author of popular medical articles in various publications (writes under the pseudonym "Leonid Schebotansky"). Every day he publishes a rather interesting overview of the blogosphere and various media, mainly on a medical topic. There are also posts in which Dok-zlo skillfully conducts an educational program.
“If a “wavka”, “sore” and “speck” appeared and DO NOT PASS for a month and a half or two, even if they don’t bother you much or don’t bother you at all, then with brilliant green and iodine, and even more so with celandine (that’s what, by the way, Onishchenko should be banned, and not milk) it makes no sense to smear. You need to go to a doctor, to a real one, that is, to a dermatologist or oncologist, and they will decide on the analysis. It's better to be overdressed than underdressed."
Oksana Bogdashevskaya works as a gynecologist in Moscow and knows very well what women usually do wrong and what things they need to know about first. Therefore, Oksana in her blog talks about the correct handling of contraceptives, as well as typical mistakes of pregnant women or those who want to get pregnant. Not the entire blog is devoted to medicine (although most of it) - lovers of Persian greyhounds will be pleasantly surprised.
“How do you protect yourself?
- No way.
- Why?
- Well, if I get pregnant, I will give birth.
It is wonderful. It's great that a woman doesn't plan to have an abortion. The catastrophe is that a woman does not plan a healthy child in this case. Will we never be able to reach out and explain that a basic intake of folate (a general term applied to a group of compounds structurally similar to folic acid), the simplest changes in lifestyle and nutrition, minimal preparation and a complete abstinence from alcohol, smoking and drugs are absolutely necessary !! »
“The Journey of a Crazed Medical Futurist” is how Dr. Bertalan Mesko from Budapest describes his blog. And he doesn't cheat. In Scienceroll, medical education and medicine in general are covered precisely from the point of view of new technologies that are surprisingly changing the perception of education, communication between doctors and patients, and the treatment process. Mesko even published a book, Social Media and Clinical Practice.
“Several startups are focused on tracking how the patient complies with the doctor's prescriptions. These are different projects, such as a bottle that glows blue when you need to take medicine, and red - when a dose is missed (winner of the latest World Healthcare Innovation Cup); or tiny, easily digestible sensors that can be placed in pills that can relay information about how a drug is absorbed to doctors or family members. It seems that in the future it will be extremely difficult for a doctor to lie.”
The blog of an emergency surgeon (in the recent past) and oncologist-mammologist (in the present) is popular due to the wit and self-irony of the author. True, there are not many posts about work and medicine in general - mainly on the tags “medical”, “sanitary education” and “case study”. Previously, Gevella worked in a Moscow city hospital and sometimes was on duty in the emergency department, where all sorts of stories happen all the time. In LiveJournal, there were stories about patients, colleagues, and what generally happens in an ordinary Moscow City Clinical Hospital. Now the topic of the posts has changed somewhat, but these are still sincere and sometimes caustic texts about the work of a doctor.
« I always thought that the most severe medical specialties are resuscitators, surgeons and traumatologists. It is for these people that the nerves are steel ropes, and endurance is like the Great Wall of China, that is, it is endless and insurmountable. I lived with this belief for a long time, cherishing my own ego. But one day all my ideas were turned upside down, and the palm in terms of severity was selected, at first glance, by pacifist otorhinolaryngologists.
Collective professional blog in English dedicated to resuscitation. The authors lay out different cases, recommendations, share the results of interesting studies, talk about what excites young doctors who are just learning.
“I used to work with children. We received a 4-year-old girl who needed access to a catheter. She began to panic and began to breathe rapidly. She was about to start screaming. I had to do something. I knelt down, looked into her eyes and said, "Just breathe." Without breaking the rhythm, she moved closer to me and said: "I'm already breathing." Touche.
One of the best medical blogs is run by a pediatric surgeon, a resident. Even large texts about routine work are more than pleasant to read. There are also rather curious analyzes of clinical cases, unusual due to a rare disease or talents of patients (how else can you call the ability to swallow a knife?). The author also conducts surveys with a proposal to make a diagnosis.
“The therapeutic meaning of raspberry jam is to occupy yourself the day ahead by picking out the bones from your teeth. In the meantime, you forget that you are sick and do not pay due attention to germs. So they get offended and leave.”
The blog is run by a surgeon from a state hospital in a rather large Siberian city. Not embarrassed in expressions, he writes about negligent colleagues, stupid laws that interfere with work, and amazing patients (such come across through one). Updates happen 1-2 times a month.
« A definitely damn gifted polyclinic therapist has invented not only a new nosology, but also a new term for it! And the follow-up examination and treatment prescribed by him is probably so innovative that the understanding of the mind of a humble abdominal surgeon is simply inaccessible.
An interesting blog by a surgeon from South Africa, touted even on the Forbes website. The author practices in Mpumalanga, South Africa. Each post is almost always not just a story or a story, but a short story based on what the practice of this doctor brings. He vividly and meaningfully describes both funny cases and dramatic moments.
"Do not worry! We will do everything in our power for you." His gaze remained fixed. Then he slowly raised his hand and gave a thumbs up to show that he trusted me and trusted me. It was almost impossible for me to bear it.
We fought over it for hours. We fought so long and so hard that even when we knew we had lost the fight, we kept fighting."
This video blog is part of the PETRGU UTV student television. The channel is made by young enthusiastic guys and covers a variety of topics: from politics to literature. But the main thing is that there is a program “Accessible Medicine”. It briefly, cheerfully and clearly talks about melanoma, allergies, women's health, antibiotics, placebos and much more.
The author of this popular LiveJournal blog is Alexei Vodovozov, a former doctor in the medical service of the Russian Armed Forces and now a medical journalist. He writes vividly and analyzes each problem extremely corrosively. Actively opposes homeopathy, herbal medicine, anti-vaccine and other phenomena that are not related to the field of science.
« There are no substances that are absolutely safe for long-term use. If such people suddenly come across, this can only mean one thing: they are biologically inert, that is, useless. Even vitamins and "minerals", if they are consumed a lot and constantly, begin to harm, and not a little. From recent examples: a doubling of the risk of kidney stones when consuming more than 7 g of vitamin C per week, an increase in mortality from heart and vascular diseases in men against the background of long-term intake of 1 g of calcium per day.
Dr. Rob Lamberts is a pediatrician and internist in private practice based in Augusta, Georgia, USA. Thanks to this author's great sense of humor, reading his blog is a great pleasure. Dr. Lamberts talks about his practice (without the mediation of insurance companies and the state, which is somewhat unusual for the United States), explains the logic of the doctor's actions, or simply reflects - whatever it is, it is always interesting to read.
“Doctors are afraid of you.
No, I'm not talking about the fear of getting sick, pain or death. I'm not saying that doctors are afraid of the limitations of their knowledge. I'm talking about your understanding of a fact that everyone else seems to be missing, a fact that many doctors hide: we are normal, fallible people who have chosen to be a doctor. We are not special. In fact, many of us are insecure. We want to feel the support of people who feel better, to hear the praise of those we have helped. We want to cure diseases, save lives, be a helping hand, be the right people, in the right place at the right time.”
Family doctor Alexei Yakovlev writes about entomology, botany and ballet in his LiveJournal. A whole section of the blog is devoted to traveling around the world and the fauna of exotic countries - this should appeal to everyone who read Gerald Durrell as a child. And topics related to medicine can be found under the tags diseases, vaccination, healthcare. Here Aleksey criticizes “fuflomycin drugs”, writes articles on popular medicine, and also fights against folk myth-making around vaccination.
« Headache is perhaps the most common patient complaint not only in neurological but also in general medical practice. And just as common as headaches are among modern residents of industrialized countries, misconceptions about their nature are just as common.One of the most popular misconceptions among us is the indispensable association of headaches with high blood pressure.
Cardiac surgeon Alexei Utin very accessible, figuratively and even cheerfully talks in his LiveJournal about cardiovascular diseases: atherosclerosis, hypertension, coronary disease, heart defects, etc. But the author is not limited to one useful information about healthy lifestyles and disease prevention: often in posts goes to doctors, patients, and officials. Usually for business. A great opportunity to look at yourself from the outside for everyone who has ever said that they have an arrhythmia diagnosis.
« For some reason, our fellow citizens believe that alcohol is the best gift for a doctor. Probably fellow citizens just want to be operated on by a cheerful drunk surgeon.”
Maxim Malyavin, working in Tolyatti as a psychiatrist, became a practically professional blogger and author of the books “Psychiatry for the people! Cognac for the doctor”, “Notes of a psychiatrist, or haloperidol for everyone at the expense of the institution!”, “New notes of a psychiatrist, or Barbukhayk, to go!”. In LJ you can read interesting stories from practice under the tags “psychiatric stories”, “dreams about neuroses”, “private psychopathology”, “general psychopathology”, etc.
“A lady comes to see me. For a decade and a half, Natalya Petrovna (let's call her that) managed to come to terms with the fact that she was being watched by neighbors hired by the country's special services. Well, they monitor and monitor - in the end, people have such a job, and the problem of employment of the population has been solved. It would be possible, of course, to deploy hostilities, bring the main villain to clean water and get some kind of medal for it. And also a monument. But why? We must appreciate the granite in ourselves, not ourselves in the granite.

In his LiveJournal, practicing oncodermatologist Igor Sinelnikov writes about his near-medical observations and arranges health education, talking a lot and in an accessible way about skin cancer. From his posts, you can learn how to conduct a self-examination for the presence of suspicious moles and what provokes cancer. The most emotional texts are “under lock and key”, therefore, in order to find out exactly what the author did not like with OTC drugs, as well as who is currently studying at medical universities, it is better to ask for friends.
« In general, the word "mole" is now colloquial. Anything is called a mole in our time - from completely benign and safe papillomas and keratomas, to malignant tumors.

This popular blog differs from the others described here in that it is run by a medical examiner. Of course, the posts are quite specific: “ The purpose of such publications, which are primarily not aimed at doctors, is to shock the population, stimulate brain activity in people. I won’t upload photos of all kinds of horrors just to have fun or stare, although there are enough of them.

For those who find the notes about the everyday life of a forensic scientist too shocking, the author posts a warning in each post.
The blog is maintained by a neurologist from Karelia, to be more precise, from Petrozavodsk. Working in a polyclinic brings the joy of communicating with a large number of patients of varying degrees of sanity and ingenuity. The author writes about especially curious cases. Not without irony, of course. There are also posts about interesting scientific articles, but they appear less frequently. There are practically no texts on the blog that are not about medicine.
“An oriental-looking young lady with lumboischialgia came to the second appointment. I ask:
- Well, how did it get easier?
— Yes, I’m already walking normally… Doctor, I have a small request for you.

He shrugged his shoulders, reduced the dose of Dexalgin by half.
With her blog, Katie McKissick from Los Angeles demonstrates that there are no former biology teachers. For the Beatrice the Biologist blog, she is not only an author, but also an illustrator. Katy talks about scientific mysteries, oddities and paradoxes, most often through drawings and sometimes videos. Cathy also writes for Scientific American. She also developed the game Amoeboid about an amoeba, its friends and enemies.
