A local doctor who grew up in Ukraine is helping to amplify the voices of the need from the medical community there.
Memorial Hermann Endocrinologist Dr. Kateryna Komarovskiy grew up in Ukraine, survived Chernobyl, and graduated from medical school there.
Peaceful, loving people who are now forced to defend the earth from which they prospered, showing the world a kind of resolve that inspires hope as well as heartbreak and tears. “I lived in Kyiv, and yes, Chernobyl happened. My mom gave me iodine to protect my thyroid and we had to leave Kyiv three days later,” Komarovskiy said. “I had to live nine months away from my family.”
In 2011, she moved to Texas and set up her practice a few years later in Shenandoah. She also worked with Memorial Hermann. In Komarovskiy’s Shenandoah office, there sits a very meaningful figurine, which was gifted to her by a patient.Sunflowers are Ukraine’s national flower. In many ways, this figurine represents the feeling of Komarovskiy and her fellow Ukrainians. This war is personal.“We just need this to stop. It really breaks my heart,” Komarovskiy said.
