What patients say about Chemotherapy

How convenient is the clinic location and access?

Patients consistently praise the seamless logistics support at Turkish clinics. Travel arrangements are handled efficiently, with coordinators organizing flights and transfers quickly. As one patient noted, everything went 'according to schedule' without feeling the language barrier. Clinics provide comprehensive accommodation packages, including free housing for the entire treatment period and three meals daily.

The overall experience is described as professionally organized, with patients feeling well-supported from arrival to departure.

The clinic is modern, the staff is attentive, competent, highly qualified. The approach to the organization of diagnosis and treatment professional. Everything went according to schedule. The language barrier was not felt. I was somewhat surprised by the lack of sanepid mode, in my opinion. Logistics (hotel accommodation, transfer), translator on top. Great site, great service. Kind, competent, attentive and caring attitude of employees. You do not feel useless and lonely.

Professionalism, high standards, the attitude of doctors and staff attentive, arrival and departure at a high level. Special thanks to Bookimed Coordinator - Varvara for organizing the trip and attentiveness!

How effective are the treatment results?

Patient experiences with chemotherapy effectiveness in Turkey show mixed outcomes. One patient received comprehensive treatment planning at Liv Hospital with 'examination and recommendations for treatment at home,' expressing satisfaction with the month-long program and planning follow-up visits in 3-4 months. However, treatment approaches can vary significantly between Turkish and home country oncologists. Some noted translation challenges during consultations, though this didn't affect the medical care quality. Another patient experienced differing medical opinions, with Turkish doctors recommending a wait-and-see approach while home physicians suggested more immediate intervention. Overall, patients describe doctors as 'professional' with thorough diagnostic processes.

I went to the Liv Istinier clinic for treatment. The treatment was planned for a month. It was provided with an examination and recommendations for treatment at home. In general, the trip went well, thanks to the coordinators Dilvar, Tuba, Niyaz. SPECIAL THANKS TO BUKIMEDA COORDINATOR PAVL. Before the trip, I read a lot of reviews, what problems there might be. I also had them, but Pavel was always in touch, and it was all solved in 5-10 minutes, without exaggeration. In 3-4 months, if everything is normal, I will go to the clinic for control.

Doctors seemed professional. Low quality translation from Turkish to Russian and vice versa. For some reason, after PET KT (perhaps a coincidence), upon returning home, it was sharply worse. We had to urgently operate, although Turkish oncologists did not see the need for an operation, but offered to wait a month.

How experienced and professional are the doctors?

Patients consistently describe Turkish oncologists as highly professional and competent, with doctors being 'knowledgeable' and taking time to explain treatment details thoroughly. Dr. Zafer Gulbash at Anadolu clinic particularly stands out for conducting examinations at a 'high level' with clear expertise. Some noted translation quality could be improved, though this didn't impact the medical care received. Doctors demonstrate patience in addressing patient concerns and create confidence that patients are 'in good hands.' The overall medical approach is described as professional and well-coordinated throughout treatment.

My father’s medical experience with Memorial Şişli was great. Everything was well-organized, and we felt supported throughout the entire process. The doctor was professional, knowledgeable, and patient in explaining every detail, which reassured us that my father was in good hands. I was also really impressed by how quickly everything was arranged. There were no unnecessary delays, and the entire medical service was coordinated seamlessly. Our online medical coordinator was always available whenever we had questions, making the whole process much easier. Having a interpreter readily available was a huge help as well—they were efficient and made communication effortless. The hospital was spotless, and cleanliness was clearly a top priority, which gave us even more peace of mind. Overall, we were very happy with the care my father received. The professionalism and efficiency of the entire team made a real difference, and I would highly recommend the hospital to anyone seeking quality medical care abroad.

In July 2022, I underwent an examination at the Anadolu clinic. The examination was conducted by Dr. Zafer Gulbash. Everything went very professionally, at a high level. It can be seen that the specialist is highly professional and competent. I would also like to note the high level of service of Bookimed employee Anna Khomenko. Very friendly, competent staff. I also wanted to express my gratitude to the staff of the clinic Anadol Osman Shahin, Zahida, Khalida and others, whose names I unfortunately did not remember.

Will language barriers affect my treatment?

Most describe translators as being 'on top' of communication needs and making interactions 'effortless.' One patient noted having 'constant support of a translator' throughout their ongoing treatment at Medipol clinic. Another emphasized how interpreters were 'readily available' and 'efficient' during their father's care at Memorial Şişli. Some experienced occasional translation quality issues, though medical care proceeded smoothly.
