My name is Marina Shlykova — doctor, wife, and proud mother of five sons. Our home is filled with laughter and the gentle chaos of a big, happy family. Among all these men, I often say I live like a princess in my own kingdom.
Medicine has been my calling for 18 years. I work as a functional diagnostics doctor of the highest category and therapist at the City Polyclinic . I love listening to my patients, helping them heal, and giving more than just treatment — real care.
In 2024, after competing in Mrs. Russia Classique, I represented my country at Mrs. European Nations Classique, earning the First Runner-Up title.
Many wonder why a busy doctor and mother of five would join a beauty pageant — for me, it’s a celebration of womanhood. It lights up the spirit, adds sparkle to daily life, and opens new horizons.
Beyond medicine, I dedicate time to charity.
Together with the Dobrodely Foundation I visit children’s homes and care centers, organize small celebrations, and host health talks. Since 2023, I’ve led the “Beauty Without Borders” project — a city contest for women with mental health challenges, showing that beauty and dignity have no limits.
My greatest victories are the ones written in smiles, gratitude, and shared moments of joy.
When I find a free moment, I love spending time with friends, going to the theatre, and discovering new places. I take pride in my work, my children, and the kindness we bring to our community — whether it’s collecting recyclables for Circle of Life or joining the Clean Games to keep our city bright.
