After this visit, it became difficult to trust Turkish medicine
I wasn't in treatment. And the counselling session looked like it was staged.
We came with serious problems. On my questions was promised a serious consultation with additional specialists, and received a simple excuse, and the offer of surgery for $ 19000, which does not save the situation with the phrase: "it will still be worse". And we came for a qualified solution to the problem

I think the body is not bukimed but the approach of the clinic we chose. I don't think this clinic needs the services of your organisation

I didn’t have the operation, you can just say I went to paid appointments. I did not like the fact that the doctor was not familiar with my examinations and analyzes, and before, if I had an MRI, they did an ultrasound scan. It's not clear why. At the same time, the ultrasound did not give the whole picture. Also, only on the spot when the doctor asked me to look at my tests and examinations, the translator tried to translate. Before arriving at the clinic, I discussed in advance what kind of operation I wanted, whether they would be able to do it. The answer was always YES, after arrival already at the reception, NO.
