The level of medicine is here 👍
I am grateful to the bookimed team. They work promptly, are constantly in touch, and help in any situation. I am very glad that I contacted the clinic through bookimed, our doctor, neurosurgeon Gopkalp Sinav, is very experienced, sociable, and attentive. I would like the doctors in Uzbekistan to be the same as in Turkey. The level of medicine is here 👍.

  • according to Urban (removal of pectoralis major and minor muscles, axillary tissue and lymph nodes);
