We were satisfied, the consultation allowed us to ask questions on our part
Online counselling was necessary in order to quickly assess treatment options. It is clear that it is always better to have the opinion of several independent consultants, especially if you are a professor in the field of oncology. Because a life can depend on it. Everything was promptly organised, discs and documents were provided in advance. We were satisfied, the consultation allowed us to ask. questions on our part. If the answer to a question required the opinion of a radiologist, we were called back a little later and the question was answered.

"I want to express my deep gratitude to all the medical staff to the management of the Anadolu clinic!"Return: About the doctor, About the clinic, About the results, About the experience, Most positive sentence
I came for the first time for examination at the Anadolu clinic. Yes, in fact, a very good clinic, everything is organized from the plane to the last day. I want to express my deep gratitude to all the medical staff to the management of the Anadolu clinic! I would like to note the high professionalism of all the doctors whom I underwent examinations, the ability to convey to everyone's consciousness. Cardiologist Ertan Okmen surprised me with his professionalism at the first consultation, only listening to me, he named all my heart problems, which were confirmed after further examination. I want to say a big thank you to the oncologist Ismail Hakki who very professionally and deeply explained and answered all my questions. I ask the management of the Anadolu clinic to pay attention to such specialists and appreciate their work at its true worth. Thanks to the coordinator and translator Maria for her care and attention. I really hope that my gratitude in return will make you at least a little bit happier.

"I can recommend a clinic
You can talk about treatment after receiving the results, a professor who examined me and doctors cause trust. I can recommend a clinic. Excellent organization of examination and treatment, there are blunders, but there are not many of them. Language barriers should be taken into account. Eugene
