"The result of the consultation was more than satisfactory
The most basic and most important is the medical equipment for a complete high-quality diagnosis. A small minus is the very low quality of the Internet, from the wishes: the possibility of placing on the territory of a small street sports complex. The territory of the clinic, the ward, the clinic itself comply with all modern world standards. Read more less

The work is coordinated, competent and professional
Good day to all. I wanted to write about the Anadolu clinic. The choice fell on her based on reviews. But I would like to mention curator Marina from Bookimed and curator Zahida from the clinic. The work is coordinated, competent and professional. 24/7. They were undergoing treatment for oncology. It's not just the treatment that's different. But also the attitude towards this group of patients. Everything is aimed at the result of treatment. The presentation of the diagnosis and the stage of the disease are not emphasized. Which is very important for cancer patients. A professional with a capital P and a very good person - oncomammologist Kemal Bey. His whole team. Anesthesiologists and plastic surgeons. and of course nurses. Translator Khalid. 24/7. And of course Zahida. Our curator. Professional. Always in touch. Will always support. I'm sure . We will recover. Thank you all very much Read more less

The doctor-oncologist was very welcoming and friendly
Good day! Our stay in this clinic took 12 days. We were at the beginning of December 2021. My mother was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer, since in our country they refused to accept her with her family, they decided to look for a clinic. Thanks to the operators of the Bookimed website, they helped to collect the necessary documents, translated all our analyzes available at that time in our hands and sent them to the Anadolu clinic that we chose. We waited 4 days for a response from the clinic. During this time, we were informed by the operators-consultants of the Bookimed website about our further treatment plan that the clinic offered us. With the help of operators, it was Ruslana, thanks to her she always got in touch. From the side of the clinic, a transfer was organized from the airport to the hotel and back, then to the clinic for every need, a hotel was also booked, which was located 10-15 minutes drive from the hotel. After arriving the next day, examinations and analyzes began to take place almost immediately. We decided to give everything from 0, from blood tests, biopsy, ultrasound, MRI and PET-CT. All in all it took 1 day. The clinic is very Read more less

Hello. Our story began in March 2019, when my mother developed a mass in her left breast. Immediately they began to be examined, mammography, consultation with an oncologist, and a diagnosis of Left breast cancer, T4N2M0. We left for St. Petersburg, underwent surgery in class. them. Petrov, after the operation, she was prescribed 4 courses of paclitaxel, which we had already at home in the oncology center. Then a follow-up examination, again in Petrov, showed metastases in the lungs on CT of the chest. They again prescribed ribocyclib and fazlodex chemistry. Everyone drank and injected regularly. Control PET CT showed enlarged lung lesions and new liver lesions. And then I began to look for other clinics, so I went to bookimed. I was immediately answered. Coordinator Pavel Popkov contacted me, naturally I have a bunch of questions to which the UN responded very tactfully, politely and quickly. He offered various options - from zoological consultations in various clinics in Europe to a detailed review of the same clinics and specialists. Since, to travel to European clinics, a visa was needed, and this time, Pavel proposed to consider clinics in Turkey. We stopped at the Medipol Mega clinic. Pavel put us in touch with the coordinator from this clinic - Irada, with whom we discussed the departure date, place of residence (we were offered to choose from several hotel options, booked what we chose). We arrived in Istanbul in February 2020, we were met at the airport (free transfer) and taken to the hotel. The next morning we were already at the clinic, they provided an interpreter, his name was Babajan. He was with us all the time, if we had to leave, always in touch. The examination passed quickly within three days - tests, consultation with an oncologist, PET CT, and a new biopsy. We were not prescribed anything superfluous, after the results of the biopsy, they prescribed chemotherapy. Everything is done in writing in Turkish and Russian. Repeated consultations with an oncologist were free. In the future, we were three more times in Istanbul, this clinic. We are still struggling with the disease, but the course is very aggressive, and chemistry and radiation therapy greatly deplete the body. Many thanks to the entire BUKIMED team, special thanks to Pavel Popkov for his tact, patience, ability to find the right words, all this is so important for those who are in despair. Thank you very much to our translator Babadzhan, always in touch, even when we were already in Russia, always trying to help.

Hello everybody. Thanks to the Clinic for a successful operation. To the Neurosurgeon Mustafa Onaz and Professor Gohan. We are diagnosed with Brain cancer, the last stage, malignant. The tumor was twice as large. They saved my husband's life. Masha Allah. The operation was 8-9 hours. they deleted everything, I consider this a record. It was a difficult operation. Well done. At our KZ they could not remove everything that was, only a small part was removed and that's it. I bow to you. At the expense of the clinic. Service At the Highest Level. Another razzzzz Many thanks to Mustafa Onaz. We love you. A doctor from God. He needs OsKar ❤️❤️❤️ Aidana Amanshieva

Nobody offered us a ward, and if we offered we couldn’t pay it, it’s about 500 dollars a day, the doctors’ approach is good, but I think we should warn the patient about his future expenses and give an alternative for treatment because he’s not ready for such expenses, thereby putting people in an awkward position by themselves, the procedures are very expensive or perhaps it seems to us expensive because we did not quite think about their prices like that. I think when you come to this clinic with a complex form of the disease, you need to have a good wallet, now I don’t have enough pills for treatment because it costs more than $ 1,700, I don’t have that much money, you know what to do after that. Maybe I'm complaining off topic, but it touched me during treatment, it would be nice if the clinic has its own hotel at a more affordable price. We counted on a week and stayed for a month. This is the fee for the room, this is the food for additional expenses that were not considered. Well, something like this, and no one cares about our capabilities.
