From visiting the clinic and undergoing examination were only negative impressions. Appointed to the doctor for 10 days at a certain time, and got an hour later! All tests were taken promptly, in 1 day and promised the results and a visit to the doctor in 2-3 days (the doctor himself said that everything needs to be done very quickly, because I needed urgent treatment), and silence .... Irada I didn’t answer calls ... We only got contact with the help of Bookimed employees! In general, we got to the doctor only after a week, and we were told that we needed to do another examination !!! (remembered) In general, we lost time in vain, which is very important for cancer patients, nerves and money ... Many thanks to the girls from Bookimed for support, help and patience Ie !!! I am grateful to Katerina, Daria, Olga and Darina for the help and support !!! I do not recommend Medipole. I am undergoing treatment in another clinic!

Many thanks to the entire BUKIMED team, special thanks to Pavel Popkov for his tact, patience, ability to find the right words, all this is so important for those who are in despair
Hello. Our story began in March 2019, when my mother developed a mass in her left breast. Immediately they began to be examined, mammography, consultation with an oncologist, and a diagnosis of Left breast cancer, T4N2M0. We left for St. Petersburg, underwent surgery in class. them. Petrov, after the operation, she was prescribed 4 courses of paclitaxel, which we had already at home in the oncology center. Then a follow-up examination, again in Petrov, showed metastases in the lungs on CT of the chest. They again prescribed ribocyclib and fazlodex chemistry. Everyone drank and injected regularly. Control PET CT showed enlarged lung lesions and new liver lesions. And then I began to look for other clinics, so I went to bookimed. I was immediately answered. Coordinator Pavel Popkov contacted me, naturally I have a bunch of questions to which the UN responded very tactfully, politely and quickly. He offered various options - from zoological consultations in various clinics in Europe to a detailed review of the same clinics and specialists. Since, to travel to European clinics, a visa was needed, and this time, Pavel proposed to consider clinics in Turkey. We stopped at the Medipol Mega clinic. Pavel put us in touch with the coordinator from this clinic - Irada, with whom we discussed the departure date, place of residence (we were offered to choose from several hotel options, booked what we chose). We arrived in Istanbul in February 2020, we were met at the airport (free transfer) and taken to the hotel. The next morning we were already at the clinic, they provided an interpreter, his name was Babajan. He was with us all the time, if we had to leave, always in touch. The examination passed quickly within three days - tests, consultation with an oncologist, PET CT, and a new biopsy. We were not prescribed anything superfluous, after the results of the biopsy, they prescribed chemotherapy. Everything is done in writing in Turkish and Russian. Repeated consultations with an oncologist were free. In the future, we were three more times in Istanbul, this clinic. We are still struggling with the disease, but the course is very aggressive, and chemistry and radiation therapy greatly deplete the body. Many thanks to the entire BUKIMED team, special thanks to Pavel Popkov for his tact, patience, ability to find the right words, all this is so important for those who are in despair. Thank you very much to our translator Babadzhan, always in touch, even when we were already in Russia, always trying to help.

I will work with Bookimed in the future and recommend it to my friends
Very, very pleased with the interaction with Bookimed.
Has been treated for breast cancer.
In November 2018, she flew to Istanbul, Medipol and Anadolu clinics for examination.
Helped with tickets, travel arrangements, always stayed in touch. The coordinator from Bookimed has a medical education, can qualitatively advise on clinics, doctors. For me personally, this is a big plus.
Before that I was treated in Israel, I organized everything on my own and spent incomparably more time, energy and nerves.
I will work with Bookimed in the future and recommend it to my friends.

"I highly recommend the oncology department here!" Return: "The doctor really helped reassure me the whole time
Everyone was very professional and helpful and the translator they assigned me went above and beyond to help me navigate my way around the hospital, communicate with doctors (many of whom already spoke English, so that made things a lot easier).
Everything was punctual and seamless, and the doctor really helped reassure me the whole time.
I highly recommend the oncology department here!
