Thank you so much to the whole team for their clear, professional and heartfelt work!
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Hisar Hospital Intercontinental in Istanbul for the high professionalism, attentiveness and care shown at every stage of my treatment. I underwent hysteroscopic removal of several endometrial polyps, including one large one measuring 3 cm. Everything went perfectly - from the initial consultation to the surgery and post-operative care. Special thanks to my doctor - Op. Dr Berna Buse Kobal. She inspired confidence from the very beginning, explained everything calmly and clearly, acted very carefully and confidently. After the operation I felt great, without pain or discomfort. The nurses and all the staff of the clinic were very attentive and helpful. The atmosphere in the hospital is clean, modern, comfortable and absolutely safe. I would also like to thank Julia, a Bookimed employee, who helped me with counselling and organising the trip. We made the decision literally at the last moment: we were informed from Dushanbe in the evening, flew out at night, and already in the morning I was in the clinic. Everything was organised perfectly - meeting, hospitalisation, surgery on the same day, and in the evening I was already relaxing in the hotel and feeling great. Thank you so much to the whole team for their clear, professional and heartfelt work! 💐 I confidently recommend Hisar Hospital Intercontinental and Bookimed to all women who are looking for quality, fast and safe treatment abroad.
Promptness, value for money. Approach.

Julia from bookimed and I were looking at several options. We voiced our budget and special requirements. After studying our wishes, she suggested this clinic. The next morning we were already at the clinic after the appointment had been decided promptly

I liked the availability and competence of the teams. My operation went very well. What I didn't like was the fact that some of the post-operative tests were not included in the initial bill, the post-operative follow-up was not respected, and such an important appointment was missed... All in all, I'd highly recommend the service, as the expertise is...

1. I didn’t like the work of the translator. The quality of the translation and the availability of a translator at the moment when I needed him 2. I made an appointment at one time, they were accepted at another I always have to wait 3. The clinic is clean, but the nurse put in an IV without gloves 4 Prescribed drugs without explaining why they were needed Price came out more than expected
I like my Bookimed coordinator Vera❤️🙏🏻
