Doctor's expertise was at a very high level
We are pleased with the staff and all the support we got from Registering, through the examinations, to the transfer to airport we needed directly from the hospital. Doctor's exeprtise was at a very high level, our translator was great and assisted with everything needed, the hospital is clean and comfortable, offering Wi-Fi access, places to rest, charge devices, eat, etc.
Accuracy of the examinations and strict time schedule; Doctor's expertise
