The neurosurgeon and author works with his mentee, Dr Igor Kurilets, in Kiev
On the road with brain surgeon Henry Marsh – Ukraine style
Henry Marsh is one of Britain’s foremost neurosurgeons. He first went to Ukraine in 1992. There he met a young neurosurgeon, Igor Kurilets, with whom he has worked since, performing state-of-the-art procedures with second-hand surgical equipment. Marsh returned to Ukraine in February, two years after the events in Maidan, to work with Kurilets again, travelling to a clinic in Lviv, 468km from Kyiv. In the first of two articles, journalist Maxine Boersma and photographer Ty Faruki travel with him on his journey
