Everything was super, I recommend this to everyone clinic 🥰
I liked everything very much, we were met at the airport, we were put up in a luxury hotel, it is located next to the hospital, it is very convenient, the next day we met at the hospital with an interpreter, we went around, we waited for all the tests and on the same day the operation was performed, the care was super, they were discharged on the third day. Everything was super, I recommend this to everyone clinic 🥰

I really liked the attitude of all the staff in the clinic, starting from the translator who met me, as well as many thanks to the curator Zakhida for the operational organization. I am also very grateful to the doctor, he explained everything, answered many of my questions. He did an amazing operation a day after which I already felt as if nothing had happened

A very good clinic and professional doctors, the attending physician immediately aroused confidence, in addition, it was very comfortable to stay after
