Svitlana Loboda left the house every time with pockets full of medicines. The doctor knew: she would surely meet patients on the streets of the occupied city whose lives these medicines would save. 

After the Russian military took over Trostianets, the local Primary Care Center operated underground. Family doctors provided assistance to the wounded and sick in their neighborhoods. They kept a record of the dead among the population. Because of the shelling, it was difficult to get to the cemetery. So people were buried in gardens and yards. 

During the occupation, the medical facility was also damaged. The Russian military broke out doors and windows, stole office equipment, accessories, and a car. Paramedic stations in the villages were also significantly damaged. 

After the de-occupation, many patients turned to doctors with the consequences of bullying and torture.
