I really like the doctor's approach, very friendly and made me feel comfortable
I really like the doctor's approach, very friendly and made me feel comfortable. He was willing to hear my questions and explained the whole procedure and post operation requirements. The doctor's personal assistance was also in the call and immediately after she contacted me to ask if there all was ok and if there is anything else I needed to ask.
I liked the fact that after the online consultation I felt more relaxed about the operation to follow in the coming months.
About Bookimed service
I was pleasantly surprised by the people of Bookimed because I had no idea about them and only approached them to check if I could get some information about doctors in Hamburg. They responded immediately, they are always answering to my messages and are regularly communicating with me to check on my progress.

Thank you so much Bookimed for arranging everything
Prof. Kivit was very professional, explained thoroughly and knowledgeable. We got our appointment schedule very quick. Unfortunately during our consultation time, the data that we provided was incorrect so Prof. Kivit couldn't give his opinions accordingly. We were having a very good second opinion consultation with him. Thank you so much Bookimed for arranging everything.

Effectiveness: Success rates vary from 70% to 90% depending on tumor type and location.
Duration: 3-6 hours
Recovery: 4-8 weeks

Pros: Glioblastoma resection can significantly reduce tumor size, improving life expectancy and quality of life. Approximately 90% of patients experience symptom relief post-surgery.

Duration: 2 to 4 hours
