I am generally pleased with the clinic and the work of the coordinator. My sister and I were met at the airport, brought to the apartment of the clinic, I note the apartment is very cozy and comfortable with everything you need, the payment is sufficient for any person. She was given chemotherapy, we will see the results later (only 2 weeks have passed). As for me and my examination at the gynecologist, fibroids and uterine pubescence, they said they urgently need to be operated on for a small amount, while the second opinion was not confirmed in another country, which means the gynecologist is not as qualified and the impression of the doctor is just to do the surgery would get the money I did not like.

I chose Liv Hospital, assistant Bookimed Alexei and assistant Liv Hospital Lala all organized perfectly, data exchange by e-mail, payment at a reasonable price, three days and the description is ready, done well, in detail and clearly.

Radioiodine therapy is conducted by oncologists in the Oncology Department at Anadolu Medical Center. This treatment is prescribed to patients with various stages of thyroid cancer.

Radioactive iodine therapy is a time-proven method that effectively destroys cancerous cells in the thyroid, while not affecting other organs. This is due to a specific function of the thyroid to exclusively consume iodine.

The dosage of medicine is carefully calculated, doctors have major experience in conducting this procedure, so there is no chance of mistake. Last traces of radiation leave patient’s body within a week after the procedure.

I was really nervous about a new breast lump that developed. I reached out to Book I med and explained my situation. I was directed to Hisar Intercontinental Hospital. They did biopsy, ultrasound and PET scan. Although I wanted surgery, doctor explained it wasn't in my best interest and recommended medication instead. Doctors were careful to come up with plan, they didn't rush to make decisions. I had a medical coordinator who assisted in transportation to and from hospital and coordinating tests and doctor visits. I was also assigned an interpreter for Turkish to English.They were both wonderful and it was nice to have assistance and smiling faces when I arrived. They always took time to listen to concerns and answer questions. I met with 2 doctors, a breast cancer surgeon and oncologist. They both were professional and friendly. They met with a tumor board of physicians to discuss my plan.I feel like I got professional care and good treatment plan. The hospital was clean and modern. They did a good job with the tests, I didn't feel any pain from the doctor who did my biopsy. Believe me when you have something as scary as a breast lump you want to be in good hands.I paid for each test and medication individually with credit card. I was told the cost before each purchase. Even though the whole bill wasn't cheap, it's much much lower cost than I could get in United States. As a self pay patient I am glad for that also. So overall even though I was struggling with something really bad(tumor) I feel like I got great and professional care at a decent price. I would truly recommend this to anyone. And Turkey is such a beautiful country with friendly people. There is hidden artwork everywhere. So even though I am going through this ordeal being in beautiful Turkey makes it not so bad. The food here is really good and cheap. I'm staying in Old city which has tons of Cafe restaurants. In your spare time just sitting at a Cafe and watching the myriad of people walking by is fun. I am confident I am going to beat this breast tumor with the help of the wonderful care given at Hisar Intercontinental Hospital.

We were diagnosed in Medical Park. We paid attention to the high level of medicine in Turkey and modern equipment, which is important for the correct diagnosis. The diagnosis was made in Kiev. The friendly attitude of the medical staff of the clinic, the round-the-clock support and assistance of Bookimed coordinator Lisa Dudnik, the support of the coordinators of the clinic made our stay at the clinic comfortable. The attending physician Veysel Kydyr helps us in correction of treatment and after returning home. Many thanks to Bookimed for the work done. The trip gave a positive result.

FAQ about Radioiodine therapy in Turkey

How is radioiodine therapy performed?

Radioiodine therapy includes the following steps :

  1. Based on the results of the examination, the doctor determines the required dose of radioactive iodine.
  2. Specialists make a capsule with a substance.
  3. Under the supervision of a doctor, the patient takes radioiodine.

After the procedure, the person emits radiation. This can adversely affect the health of others. Therefore, for 3-7 days the patient remains in an individual ward with a special ventilation system. The duration of hospitalization depends on the dose of radioiodine.
