Мы очень довольны клиникой Sant Joan de Deu, в которой наблюдается наш ребёнок
Мы очень довольны клиникой Sant Joan de Deu, в которой наблюдается наш ребёнок. Хочется отметить высокий профессионализм доктора Мора и медицинского персонала. Рекомендуем эту детскую клинику для обследования и лечения. Также хочется отдельно поблагодарить медицинского координатора Ангелину Иваненко, которая и помогла нам принять верное решение в выборе клиники.Ангелина и на сегодняшний день помогает оперативно решать все вопросы, всегда на связи. Именно она предложила нам провести скайп консультацию с врачом. Огромное преимущество данной консультации - экономия времени, когда необходимо получить мнение компетентного врача и двигаться дальше в обследовании.Bookimed мы выбрали случайно, и не жалеем об этом.Всем рекомендуем.

The format is quite simple, everything is accessible and understandable, the doctor is very qualified. I will not say that we talked about clinical studies, there was no definitive information. We are happy, time has been spent, the translator also translated everything correctly. The doctor explained everything popularly, we received an answer to all the questions we asked. I believe that what you are doing is very important and useful for people who need help.

I saw Dr
From the minute I was inquiring about an appointment through to an entire 2 hours of tests, I felt completely taken care of. Being in a foreign country where it’s not your first language can be daunting when needing healthcare. My healthcare navigator Leen was so wonderful. She brought me to each doctor or department, got me situated and was also my translator. She was kind, compassionate & so incredibly helpful. I was incredibly grateful to have her by my side. I saw Dr. Bassols who was incredibly warm, knowledgeable and put my fears at ease. The other technicians were also wonderful and caring. I highly recommend the staff and care I received at Centro Medico Teknon and the team from bookimed that connected me to them. Thank you everyone!!

The doctor (Madero) didn’t even respond to our greetings when we entered his office. He didn’t even read correctly the medical report. He didn’t explained anything. He was doing things in a rush as if we didn’t have an appointment with him. He even left us in his office and went away. We were so frustrated after the consultation. Coming from Cameroon for this, was so disappointed.
About Bookimed service
Yes, Bookimed did a good job. After our misadventure with quironsalud Madrid, the medical coordinator booked us another appointment with Clinica Universidad de Navarra. The appointment went well and we were sarisfied of the hospital services.

I turned to Bookimed for a second independent opinion, I didn’t expect anything, but I was pleasantly surprised by the speed and cramming of the coordinating doctors Katya Koliko and Olga Krisyuk. We organized a video consultation with the HM clinic in Spain, everything went as planned, the doctor wrote what needs to be done at the moment and treatment options. Thank !

"Thanks a lot to Bookimed, and especially to my coordinating doctor Ekaterina Koliko
Before the online consultation, I consulted with several doctors in Ukraine and it was very important for me to get answers to many questions, including absolutely amateur ones. Dr. Bartolome Oliver, despite his worldwide popularity, very sincerely, accurately and correctly answered all my questions. I liked the doctor very much, it was clear that he was a professional in his field. Thanks a lot to Bookimed, and especially to my coordinating doctor Ekaterina Koliko.

From April to July 2017, I underwent a treatment in the Oncology Department at Teknon. I came to this hospital thanks to Bookimed International Patients Support Center. Doctor-coordinator Christina has supported me and I am sincerely grateful for her help! The treatment in the hospital was at the highest level, and it ended successfully. I have recovered!!! I want to thank all the doctors who directly have treated me, especially Dr. Capdevila and to Dr. Jorcano.
