Dr
I am not the patient, but a friend to the family. Dr. Leila, of Bookimed, has been constantly there to expedite the process of helping Br. Zakariya to o get his medical treatment. She was available during times when she was not even supposed to be working. Dr. Leila is truly an asset to Bookimed, and I feel blessed to have had her on the team.
When the patient was stuck at the airport, and Dr. Leila saw that he, and his brother received the tickets needed to fly to Sivas.
I feel that there needs to be someone stationed at the airport to escort international patients directly to their gate, andon to their flight. The airport personnel were not very helpful.
About Bookimed service
I feel that Dr. Leila went beyond her job responsibilities, and that she deserves compensation from the company for her high-level of professionalism.

Gratitude to all the nurses and all the staff, led by the doctors
We was at Memorial ATASEHIR hospital and NOT at Memorial Sisli hospital. Since we stayed longer than planned due to real needs, we became like a kind of extended family during that time. Gratitude to all the nurses and all the staff, led by the doctors
Their whole approach to patients is very human, in the sense that they don't see you as just a body, but a human being with a soul as God created him, something that is hard to experience in the west...so probably that's something special that needs single out.
only knowledge of foreign languages ​​for ordinary staff, even though we had fun communicating like this :)
