I am very disappointed with my experience at this Clinic I went there based on recommendations and advice, but I have seen no results after the treatment. In fact, There has been no improvement in my my eyebag no tightness, and no positive change at all. I paid a significant amount of money and, sadly, feel it was wasted and all the stuff and receptionist wer rude and disrespectful in the hospital is filthy

If I could give zero stars, I would. It's a private hospital, but hygiene is zero. Even though we arrived at 8 o'clock, a surgery patient waited outside. I've never seen such irresponsibility. They made us run around with our bags. I'm attaching the photo of the chairs in the room below. How can a patient who is having surgery be kept in such a dirty room? Also, the staff is smoking right next to the operating room. It's a terrible hospital. If you want to be disgraced with your money, you can choose it.
