For his colleagues, he was part of a large team, a person who devoted himself to an important cause – preserving the lives and health of animals."
Details: People in the comments remember Serhii as a true professional and a kind and friendly person.
"Serhii Volodymyrovych treated our Liova. We were supposed to see him for a consultation tomorrow. What a kind-hearted and compassionate man. May he rest in peace," Vita Boiko wrote.
"I cannot believe this… On 28 October, Serhii Volodymyrovych sterilised two of our dogs. I have been bringing animals to him for sterilisation for many years. This is horrific," Halyna Holosovska wrote.
