Vera Gedroyts was one of the first female surgeons in Russia, one of the first women in the world to receive the title of professor of surgery and head the surgical department. In her hands, any cripple became healthy, and her medical research still forms the basis of many theses. Vera loved her job, was not afraid of war and fought against inequality. And she also loved beautiful ladies and dedicated poetry to them. The famous poet Nikolai Gumilyov fought for her hand and heart, but the firm Gedroyts gave preference to her beloved woman, with whom she lived until her death.
