The task of the study is to analyze the language of the essays, its narrative and descriptive formulas found in this cycle of feuilletons. As a result of the study, the author concludes that it was medical practice that allowed Chekhov the writer not only to understand human suffering more deeply, but also to directly encounter the vices of the health care system.
