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."},"order":{"illness":{"id":9,"name":{"en":"Liver cancer"}},"diagnostic":{"id":523,"name":{"en":"Online Consultation with Oncologist"}}},"doctor_info":{"id":776,"name":"Jaume Català Mora","alias":"jaume-català-mora"},"clinic_info":{"id":272,"name":"SJD Barcelona Children’s Hospital","alias":"sant-joan-de-déu-–-barcelona-children’s-hospital","flags":[{"name":"is_hide","value":false},{"name":"has_active_agencies","value":true}]},"created_at":"2019-12-30T12:01:21.000+00:00","flags":[{"name":"is_approved","value":true},{"name":"is_anonymously","value":false},{"name":"is_notification_sent","value":true},{"name":"would_recommend","value":true},{"name":"has_client_feedback","value":true},{"name":"deactivated_clinic","value":false}],"summary":{"positive":{"en":"Мы очень довольны клиникой Sant Joan de Deu, в которой наблюдается наш ребёнок.
