We'll use the same guidelines and standards for all user-generated content.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Bookimed.com relevant and friendly, without limiting expressions or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Feedback should be medical travel related. The most helpful reviews are detailed and help others make better-informed decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary.
Promotional content will be removed.
Text comments in reviews should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to patients or Bookimed users. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your feedback should be yours. Bookimed.com partners should not post on behalf of patients or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.

By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text. Other sorting options might be available.
WHO CAN LEAVE A REVIEW?
Only a patient or an accompanying person who has booked the hospital through Bookimed.com and visited the medical facility, underwent some procedures or was treated there can write a review. This option allows us to verify that our reviews come from real patients like you. Who can tell more about the doctor, amenities and hospital staff han someone who checked everything by own experience?
We want you to share your story— both good and not-so-good ones.
We believe hospital reviews will highlight a wide range of opinions and experiences, which is critical in helping patients make informed decisions about treatment destination.
Whether negative or positive, we'll post every comment in full, as quickly as possible, after its moderated to comply with Bookimed.com guidelines. We'll also provide transparency over the status of submitted content.
After a review has been submitted, you can modify it by contacting Bookimed.com Customer Service contact@bookimed.com.
