"I am very grateful to the Bookimed consultants who helped me choose the Ichilov Medical Center
My brother has epilepsy .. Without a doubt, the Ichilov clinic is an excellent choice for examinations and treatment of various diseases. And the narrow specialization of doctors make it one of the best in the world. I am very grateful to the Bookimed consultants who helped me choose the Ichilov Medical Center. You really know what you pay money for! Thanks to my consultants, Ostap and Yulia for their work .. I tried to get in touch with the clinic directly, but through Bookimed I managed to organize everything quickly. You can just trust them and not worry. Help and in choosing a doctor and with housing. THANK!

They did everything very well and if I am capable of being helped, I have no doubt that they would achieve that
The arrangements were all made with Dennis and. His support was exceptionally good. The medical treatment was explained and was logical and the outcome is something I’ll have to wait for. They did everything very well and if I am capable of being helped, I have no doubt that they would achieve that.

Everything was great
Everything was great. They got a little confused with the time of admission (it was not possible to find out whether it was from the side of the clinic or Bookimed), and since the clinic is in another city, it was difficult to immediately adjust their plans. In the end, everything ended well. Thank)

Good day. Thanks to Dmitry, because we closed our question through a Skype conference. Initially, we only needed a doctor’s consultation. As a result, we spoke precisely with the professor that we needed. And he answered all our questions.

Liked everything . A neurologist, psychiatrist, and psychologist liked his approach to the child. There were consultations with the child, and diagnosis and treatment recommendations were made. We lived in a rented apartment not far from the clinic.
