Who was the first obstetrician in Russia?

It is rightly believed that the establishment of scientific obstetrics in our country was facilitated by the opening of “women’s schools” (1757), the creation of Educational homes in Moscow (1764) and St. Petersburg (1771), the activities of the first Russian professor and “father of Russian obstetrics” Nestor Maksimovich Maksimovich-Ambodik. However, these transformations and the emergence of a domestic obstetric school could not arise out of nothing, out of nowhere. The basis for them was the activity of foreign and Russian doctors who worked in Russia at the beginning of the 18th century.
