About the Doctor - AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!
I can leave only positive feedback about the clinic, because in our case, I can't pick on anything, even on purpose. We had a consultation and initial examination by a doctor. The impression of the clinic is VERY positive. About the Doctor - AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!. Thanks to him for his high qualification and competent attitude to the patient.
What I liked most of all was the high qualification of the doctor. I also liked the high qualification of the doctor and all the staff. The girl interpreter also conducted the whole reception in a perfectly competent manner. The transfer was provided on time. Perfect cleanliness in the whole clinic and sterile cleanliness in the offices. Facilities in the lobby and on the floors, in the waiting areas, coffee shops and Starbucks in the clinic. Respectful and friendly attitude to patients and accompanying people.

Everything was organized according to time, the translator was very helpful and translated everything
Everything was organized according to time, the translator was very helpful and translated everything. But! The prices for medical services differed significantly; the translator told me one amount, but in fact they charged more in a couple of minutes. The gynecologist also promised to comment on the tests that I took on different days, but no comment was forthcoming, nor was there a response by phone.
Cleanliness of the clinic, speed of services, staff response
The difference in the quoted prices between the translator and the cashier. Plus ignoring the doctor to comment on the tests

"The prices at the Memorial clinic indicate that it claims to be a clinic not only with highly specialized specialists, but also for a clinic of high quality service
The prices at the Memorial clinic indicate that it claims to be a clinic not only with highly specialized specialists, but also for a clinic of high quality service. The general impression is that it is not worth it, for such amounts you at least expect to receive test results and a conclusion. I received the following services at the clinic: - tests One nurse took tests from me and another patient at the same time, and almost mixed up the labels on the test tubes. - doctor's consultations (gynecologist, dermatologist) The appointment of a dermatologist was not issued either digitally or in paper form, which caused problems during the subsequent treatment. In gynecology, there were two parts of the tests, some told me that they were good, but I didn’t receive any conclusion, nothing. The second told me that they would inform me by phone, but no one contacted me. - medical procedures I was signed up for medical procedures, but when they arrived, the nurses began to ask me how much the medicine cost, the price for which they wrote to me on a piece of paper a week before. A very strange way of determining which drug to inject a patient. I expected the assignment to be stored in an internal electronic system. - translation On the day of the consultation with the gynecologist, after waiting half an hour for a translator into Russian, they gave me an interpreter in English (post factum), in general, I made an understanding based on the results of the analysis, but unfortunately, I do not know the gynecological topic in English at the right level and ask some clarifying questions were already pointless.
