Abstract

This article reviews and gives brief characteristics to the three stages of progression of the religio-philosophical heritage  of  Nikolay  Ivanovich  Pirogov.  The  return  of  the  famous  Russian  surgeon  to  the  Orthodox  faith  after rejecting his materialistic convictions is directly tied to his most significant practical and scientific achievements.
is worldview is defined as a fusion of science and religion. His religio-philosophical views are evaluated in the context of the history of Russian and Soviet medicine. Plans for future expanded study of the religio-philosophical heritage of the “First Surgeon of Russia”.
