Her level of empathy was touching
My request was for a specific treatment for my condition, which I believe was triggered by COVID or vaccine-related complications. The treatment itself is relatively new and not widely available; however, the doctor Faturanız Hazırdır was open to considering my request, which was a decisive factor in choosing this hospital. Her level of empathy was touching.
When I arrived, I received outstanding support from Aliser Durdiyev, who coordinated the entire process — from reception and medication procurement to scheduling the treatment.
None of this would have been possible without Hanna Karvatska, who connected all of us who has deep personal and professional connection with people here, and I’m deeply grateful to her, Alisar, and the doctor for their support and professionalism. And special thanks for the empathy from all three people, the teamwork they created to get me what we all believe could be the best treatment.
About Bookimed service
Hanna is a remarkable individual with a big heart, dedicated to connecting patients with top-tier doctors and medical professionals across various countries. Her extensive network ensures that every partner and connection goes the extra mile to meet patient needs without hesitation.
Aliser is a young but already experienced medical advisor. I was positevley surprised with approach. One of the most critical aspects of arranging medical treatment abroad is navigating logistics in an unfamiliar country. This is where Aliser's proactive approach truly stands out. His exceptional energy, personal connections, and unwavering curiosity to find the best solutions were decisive factors in my positive experience.
Together, Hanna and Alisar helped to oerganise care and coordination, making the complex process of international medical treatment seamless and patient-focused.

"I can only say thanks to your company and Katerina
Good evening. I can only say thanks to your company and Katerina. Thank you so much for your help and support. The impression about the clinic itself was not very, often made nervous, dragged time, I can’t say anything about the professor either. Five minutes talk for $ 120 a bit too much. The clinic itself is not bad, in my opinion, a lot of clients have simply gathered and cannot cope with such volume, and here we are not talking about the desire to help, just money. How to undertake, I can say that robots need to take as much as possible so that they can cope with it, otherwise it negatively affects their reputation. Thank you again
