History

The medical organization was created in 1946 on the basis of evacuation hospital No. 1239, which was located in the building of the Bookselling Technical School on Frunze Street.

Initially, the institute specialized in the surgical treatment of people who received various injuries during the Second World War.

In 2015, for the first time in Russia, the institute's doctors implanted nanoceramic hip joint implant made in Russia (it was made in Novosibirsk by NEVZ-Keramiks). A hip joint prosthesis was implanted free of charge to a resident of Birobidzhan.[1]
