"The tests were taken immediately"

We were met by two girls - translators, very friendly. The husband was examined, the tests were taken immediately. Since the results should have been ready only in a week, we paid for another consultation with the doctor, to which the girl-translator went instead of us. The results were delayed for a couple of days. In general, the impression of visiting the clinic remained positive. Read more less
