I really like the doctor's approach, very friendly and made me feel comfortable
I really like the doctor's approach, very friendly and made me feel comfortable. He was willing to hear my questions and explained the whole procedure and post operation requirements. The doctor's personal assistance was also in the call and immediately after she contacted me to ask if there all was ok and if there is anything else I needed to ask.
I liked the fact that after the online consultation I felt more relaxed about the operation to follow in the coming months.
About Bookimed service
I was pleasantly surprised by the people of Bookimed because I had no idea about them and only approached them to check if I could get some information about doctors in Hamburg. They responded immediately, they are always answering to my messages and are regularly communicating with me to check on my progress.

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 :)

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.

"Once again I want to express my deep gratitude to Katerina and Darya for all that they have done for my son and me !!!
The clinic has a very good atmosphere, despite the fact that it is a hospital. Stay in this clinic can be compared with a sanatorium. The doctors are qualified, they explain everything in detail, they are treated with respect. The chamber is very comfortable, beautiful view from the window, which helps to switch a little from the disease. There is wi-fi in the ward, which is very important for foreign patients, since you can always contact your relatives without any problems. There is a TV, a fridge, a shower and a toilet in the ward. I am very pleased with the book service, namely Katerina and Daria, as they facilitated all the organizational issues. We picked up the necessary flight at the best price. I was very worried that when we arrived at the airport we would reach the clinic without knowing the language. But bookimed takes care of his patients, we were met by a transfer, brought to the clinic, held to the reception, helped to arrange all the documents. If there were any questions, Daria and Katerina are always in touch and always helped to resolve any issue. I am very pleased with the clinic that bookimed offered us. Cun underwent five operations that were successful and now, every day his son is getting better. My advice to everyone, if you are told in Ukraine that nothing can be done or just watch, do not give in and be sure to contact bookimed to get advice from experienced doctors according to your diagnosis. So, as in Ukraine there are not many devices, without which doctors refuse to perform certain operations. And naturally they do not have the necessary experience in treating certain diagnoses. I used to think how to get advice abroad if I have never been abroad in my life. It turns out everything is very simple, you just need to contact bookimed, and they organize a consultation with the doctor who is needed for you. Once again I want to express my deep gratitude to Katerina and Darya for all that they have done for my son and me !!!
