I would absolutely recommend Bookimed to everyone
I was very satisfied with the overall service. The medical team was top. Everything clear, the medical was fluent in English which made our understanding of the problem much better. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Absolutely satisfied with Bookimed services. Both Angelina and Daria were very helpful, eager to assist. The Bookimed agent that waited for us at the clinic was very polite and also very dedicated. We had a fluid situation in requirement to see another doctor after the one that we had planned and the agent helped us and made it possible within 30 minutes. I would absolutely recommend Bookimed to everyone.

"What he said, none of the other doctors in our homeland in Kyrgyzstan or in Kazakhstan said, so I am very glad that we came to Professor Thomas Cech, heard his opinion about our situation and made no mistake trusting local doctors
We met us well, the barrier is the language, even taking into account the fact that there is a translator, I still did not understand the professor, so I advise everyone who comes to the blade to go with their translator so that there is time to discuss and understand everything, since time everyone has very few and the translator immediately ran away after the visit and not everything was clear. What he said, none of the other doctors in our homeland in Kyrgyzstan or in Kazakhstan said, so I am very glad that we came to Professor Thomas Cech, heard his opinion about our situation and made no mistake trusting local doctors.

Removal of herniated disc with preoperative diagnostic

This procedure involves the surgical extraction of a herniated spinal disc, preceded by detailed diagnostic imaging to ensure precision.

Pros: Offers targeted relief with precise diagnostics, minimizing unnecessary tissue removal. Success rate of 85% in pain reduction.
