In January 1944, St Luke the Surgeon was appointed Archbishop of Tambov and Michurinsk, while continuing his medical work; he oversaw 150 hospitals! In May 1946, he was appointed to the cathedra of Simferopol and Crimea. Yet, his long years of imprisonment and exile, the rigours and sequelae of things he experienced throughout his difficult life, took a toll on his health. He began to lose his sight, and his heart began to fail. Enduring all these health complications, his motto was: “Continue your path with courage, with much courage. Let your heart rejoice in the Lord.”

Once, during WW2, St Luke the Surgeon demanded a detailed account of everything that had been done for a patient who was thought to be close to death. The doctor began to recite a list of medications prescribed, but then, with a wave of his hand, stopped himself, saying, “What is there to talk about here! The patient is doomed in any case.” Doomed? The always unperturbed St Luke literally exploded. “You have no right to stop fighting for the sick patient’s life! You do not even have the right to think about failure! You just must do everything that is necessary! To do everything, do you hear?”

During WW2, St Luke the Surgeon was entering into a personal relationship with each of the wounded – remembering their faces, knowing their names, and recalling all the details of the operation and post-op recovery period. He was widely known for saying, “For a surgeon, there must not be an ’instance,’ but only a living, suffering person.”

During WW2, St Luke the Surgeon oversaw a hospital surgical division. He personally took on the most severely ill and most severely wounded and performed brilliant surgery on them. After the war, he was awarded a medal 'For valiant effort in the Great Patriotic War.' No matter whom he treated, no matter where he treated them, he was not afraid to sincerely respond to his patients’ words of thanks by saying, “It was God who healed you through my hands. Pray to Him.”

Upon learning that N**i invaded Russia, St Luke the Surgeon sent a telegram to Kalinin, Director of the Praesidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. “I, Bishop Luke, Professor Voino-Yasenetsky, am serving an exile under article such-and-such in the settlement of Bolshaya Murta in Krasnoyarsk. As a specialist in purulent surgery, I could be of use to the troops at the front or in the rear, wherever I am entrusted to serve. I ask that my exile be interrupted and I be sent to a hospital. At the end of the war, I will be ready to return to exile. Bishop Luke.” His request was granted.
