برنامج بوكيميد ممتاز الناس اللي فيه ممتازين
السلام عليكم ورحمه الله كبرنامج بوكيميد ممتاز الناس اللي فيه ممتازين الرد ممتاز بس اخر مره عن طريق مستشفى ام سي تركيا المترجم شخص اسمه عيسى ضعيف جدا في الترجمه وما يترجم ليش في كلام الدكتور لان الدكتور تكلم فتره طويله وكانت الترجمه فتره بسيطه فكان في اشياء كثيره ما يترجمش فيها لي وما استفدتش منها اي حاجه وما استفدتش من الكشف دكتور
May the peace and mercy of God be with you. As a great program, the people who use it are great. The answer is excellent, but the last time was through MC Hospital Türkiye. The translator is a man named Issa. It is very weak in translation and does not translate. Why is this from the words of the doctor? Because the doctor spoke for a long time, and the translation was short, so there was a lot of things. It does not translate for me, and it did not benefit me at all, and the examination didn't help, doctor

From personal experience, very bad. Money was taken, no treatment was prescribed. Diagonstik proiti from morning to evening turn from one office to another. I went for 2 days, my condition worsened and I left. Transfer managers, the hotel is well organized. And you should not go to the clinic, the doctors do not understand the patient. This is not a clinic, probably a diagnostic center. With my shortness of breath, I almost died in the corridor, they did not provide honey. help. Generally Emsey for me
