The results were very satisfactory
We are happy with the visit, I would like to elaborate on the cost of procedures and treatment for each position, sometimes I need help with parsing the procedure (this is a little inconvenient)

Preparation for surgery, operation itself and post-surgery care were performed with utmost care and professionalism
The medical team was very professional,available at a short notice, explaining the options, and ready to answer any questions. All necessary medical tests have been done quickly. The preparation for surgery, operation itself and post-surgery care were performed with utmost care and professionalism, overall hospital environment was calming, which helped to reduce the stress associated with surgery and diagnosis. It would be good to have an accurate estimate of costs in advance to make an informed decision.
About Bookimed service
So far I am very satisfied with the support from Bookimed: they have contacted upon request within 24 hours, proposed travel assistance, different options of facilities/doctors for diagnosis, guided through the medical assessment process, made schedules of visits/tests/surgery at the shortest possible time, provided translation of medical documentation, have been accompanying to the visits/tests on spot at the clinic and helped with formalities/German language. Additionally, after the actual estimate of surgery costs have been higher compared to initial estimation, Bookimed was looking for ways to find the savings and negotiate the price. It was very helpful to keep in touch with Bookimed staff almost on a daily basis, with two of them: a remote manager and on-site representative, who co-ordinated well with each other. I would have a small suggestion: to provide a little bit more detail on the schedule of tests/hospital admission and needed preparation.

Our Breast cancer surgery Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Breast cancer surgery, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Mastectomy

It is a surgical procedure to remove one or both breasts, partially or completely, to treat or prevent breast cancer.

Pros: Mastectomy significantly reduces the risk of breast cancer recurrence by up to 90%. It is suitable for large tumors or multiple tumors in the same breast.
Cons: Longer recovery period compared to lumpectomy, and potential loss of sensation in the breast area. It may require additional reconstructive surgery.
Effectiveness: 90% reduction in breast cancer recurrence risk.
Duration: 2-3 hours.
Recovery: 4-6 weeks.
Best for: Large or multiple tumors, genetic predisposition to breast cancer, and when breast-conserving surgery is not an option.

Lumpectomy

Breast-conserving surgery involves removing a breast tumor and a small margin of surrounding tissue to treat breast cancer.

Pros: Preserves most of the breast, maintaining its appearance and sensation. Offers a 5-year survival rate of 93% when combined with radiation therapy.
Cons: May require additional surgeries if cancer cells are detected at the margins. Higher risk of local recurrence compared to mastectomy.
Effectiveness: Achieves a 5-year survival rate of approximately 93% with adjuvant therapy.
Duration: 1 to 2 hours
Recovery: 1 to 3 weeks
Best for: Early-stage breast cancer and tumors less than 5 centimeters.
