Jeg er så fornøyd
Fantastisk bra opplevelse..Blei henta på flyplassen kjørt til klinikken. Hotellet ligger i nærheten .Det var trygt å man har kontakt med klinikken undere hele oppholdet .Dette kan jeg virkelig anbefale. Jeg hadde neck lift å hadde planlagt å ta nedre facelift men legen anbefalte å heller ta over og under øye da jeg er 55år å hadde tunge øyelokk. .Er så utrolig glad for jeg lyttet til hans anbefalinger å det kostet mindre en forventet.. Resultatet bare nå etter 11dager er utrolig.Jeg er så fornøyd..
Tryggheten etter operasjonen å hotellet i nærheten jeg kunne ta kontaktes 24t i døgnet hvis jeg hadde spørsmål
Litt bedre engelsk talende sykepleier . Men det gikk fint med Google translate så jeg hadde ingen problemer med å bli forstått

"I especially want to note that everything that was done at the highest level is mainly the merit of an employee named Zakhida
On the recommendation of Bookimed, I underwent a medical examination at the Anadolu Medical Center (Turkey). Why did you choose the Anadolu clinic? Because it was the only clinic recommended to me by Bookimed that responded very quickly to my requests, and only this clinic developed and sent me a program for my examination. Two other clinics, such as Medipol, limited themselves only to gratitude that I contacted them, and the Şişli Memorial clinic remained silent until the end without any feedback. I will not dwell on the provision of the Anadolu clinic with the most modern medical equipment, since many Turkish clinics today are equipped with the most modern equipment. I personally became convinced of this at the stage of choosing a clinic, when I got acquainted with the equipment of many clinics. The qualifications of Turkish medical specialists are generally high and they are really professionals in their field. But there is one very important point - the ability to plan and organize medical examinations. For a patient who comes to such institutions with great hopes, any attention or inattention rendered affects his psychological and moral state, and it naturally depends on this what attitude he will determine and form for himself towards the clinic itself. To be in constant contact with the patient from the moment of his desire to visit the clinic, prepare in every possible way for arrival, prepare medical data and analysis results, assist in booking a hotel, meeting at the airport upon arrival, exceptionally efficient planning of all examinations, eliminating any inconvenience for the patient from - for waiting in queues for tests, undergoing procedures and consulting a doctor and much more, this is a huge advantage of the Anadolu clinic over other clinics. I especially want to note that everything that was done at the highest level is mainly the merit of an employee named Zakhida. (international department of the clinic). Professionalism, an individual approach to each patient, impeccable organization of the entire work process, endless energy, high tolerance, femininity, pleasant appearance and many other positive qualities of a person - said about Zakhida. Zahida, please accept my deep gratitude and wish you all the best. Always remain the same joyful, radiant, beautiful and feminine! I also want to thank other employees of the Anadolu clinic, doctors, nurses, translators - thanks to your conscientious work and your high professionalism, I received a quality medical service. . I thank the Bookimed employees (Vladimir, Varvara) for your attention and for the excellent organization of the survey. All the best to you and your loved ones! With great respect, Uktam Eshmuradov (Uzbekistan).

"This is the only clinic that has agreed to my request of having keloid steroid injection done and for that I am grateful for them all for accommodating me
This is the only clinic that has agreed to my request of having keloid steroid injection done and for that I am grateful for them all for accommodating me. There is daily changes to the keloid since the steroid injection, keloid used to be aggressive, very red, and itchy but now it’s slowly decreasing in size, not red anymore quite dark now though but I guess that’s the bruise, first time in years I haven’t felt itchy on the area. Normally, a few sessions are needed but the Doctor said maybe one is enough as it’s not a big keloid. Hoping in the next few weeks it will improve for the better. As per the staff, very few can speak English but it was not a problem for me as there was an agent allocated to look after me. Thanks again :)
