About Bookimed service
They are quick to get in touch, provide the right information, and accompany the treatment.
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
