I couldn't have wanted for more
What really stood out was sitting with my surgeon as he so carefully measured and marked my upper eyelids. He was very honest about what to expect from the recovery and potential scarring, which I appreciated. The procedure was done with just local anesthesia. I'm still in the early healing stages, but I am feeling better than expected so far. The clinic team has stayed in touch to check in on me, and there were no additional expenses at all. I can't even think of any advice for a future patient, because the clinic provided all the necessary information beforehand. I couldn't have wanted for more.

I am very impressed with the quality and standard of the whole process
Communication was great. I was picked up from the hotel, transfered to the hospital, and accompanied by Adam (translator) through the journey. He knew exactly the intake process and what they would want. He was well organized and very friendly. The consultant spoke English and was very calm, and professional. I had femto iLasik which was without complication. Pre-op my prescription was -7. Day 0 post op, I could still see but with blurry vision. Day 1 post op, my vision is now 20/20. But eyes feel gritty but hopefully will ease in a few days. I am very impressed with the quality and standard of the whole process. I would highly recommend Turkey for medical tourism. It's affordable and a beautiful clean city to visit as well. Stupendous experience.

I can say the staff truly looked out for my best interest
If you're considering this procedure, I'd say the most important thing is to have realistic expectations. My surgeon was very honest about the results for my girth-only implant, and you really shouldn't think you're going from a pencil to a cucumber. While it's still too early to tell the final outcome, I can say the staff truly looked out for my best interest. They provided a clear aftercare guide, and there were no unexpected expenses. Be prepared. Expect some pain and discomfort, as is expected with any surgery. My main advice is to trust how your doctor evaluates you and to make sure you have an interpreter—I had a great one named Abraham.

Overall I have to give the bookimed team a top rating
The staff at Bookimed from the initial off-set answered all my questions, queries promptly. I was nervous with feelings swaying about my treatment. Upon arrival in Turkey from the airport transfer onwards, I have got to say all doubts were a contrast as to what I witnessed and to the treatment I received. On the first day the hotel staff were welcoming by the way I stayed local to VMH University Hospital Istanbul Besyol, at a budget I chose the World Point Hotel 700 meters away (Ramada Hotel was even closer.) I'm not arguing with what I paid, hygiene, cleanliness, manners, availability of staff, room, I got and witnessed. The transfer to the Hospital l walked with my translator, who put all my nerves and questions I had to bed, I must say I felt alot better. On arrival I was astounded, the smell of freshness, clean, I had to ask the translator how many floors 9 was the reply, Big, busy different ethnicities different cultures, vast array of people from all parts of the world, I felt comfortable. The level of equipment, the Doctors, staff members would not go amiss in any Country. The treatment I received the interaction which you have with the Doctor was of great effect to me as the knowledge about my treatment gained was instrumental in what was to happen. Overall I have to give the bookimed team a top rating. I would recommend anyone who is thinking of surgery abroad of any kind to get in touch with them, I can assure you, you will not be disappointed. Thank you.

Highly recommended!
I enjoyed my time in the hospital. Despite some language barrier with the driver and Staff,everything went smooth. Really appreciate Wissam, his boss and the doctor. Wissam went above and beyond to make sure my journey was smooth. They arranged pick up from airport to hotel, and every trips from hotel to hospital and back. I do wish the staff would smile a bit and speak English a bit since it's an international hospital. The doctor was really open and honest with what he can and cannot fix, which I appreciate. Price similar to what was discussed, no hidden cost. Only 24 hours after the surgery I was already in blue mosque enjoying the view with no issue whatsoever. Highly recommended!

I would definitely recommend and I'm soo happy I went through with it
I really enjoyed my experience at the clinic, Anastasia was amazing, she literally showed me everything and took me everywhere on the day, even to the pharmacy to pick up all my eye drops and held my hand during the surgery (I was a little worried). Everything went very smoothly and it was very quick. After the surgery my eyes did hurt a fair amount as they explain if you have the no touch laser surgery like I did but I recovered after a few days and now my sight is great. I would defined recommend and I’m soo happy I went through with it.

Everything was beyond my expectation
I'm glad I chose bookimed for my femtolasik surgery in turkey, they have been so professional and helpful in every step. I'd personally like to thank Wissam for his assistance throughout the journey. Everything was beyond my expectation, the hospital, the doctors and the staff. I'm so hapy with the outcome of my surgery. Thankyou bookimed for helping me choose the best!

The process went smoothly from start to end, although it did go quickly it all went well
The process went smoothly from start to end, although it did go quickly it all went well. Plenty of staff and the translator was always there when I needed. The hospital helpfully arranged transport efficiently.
The process, staff availability
Little time for empathy as the clinic was very busy and I did have some nerves about the procedure

And the clinic, staff, treatment and support were at the highest level
I liked everything except the meeting at the airport, we waited more than an hour for the transfer. And the clinic, staff, treatment and support were at the highest level.
Translator Tetiana helped with any questions, even when I needed medicine for my throat, she called a pharmacist who brought the medicine directly to the ward. When I needed sunglasses (after correction, they were needed), she took me to the optician and helped with the selection and translation.

Thank you very much for everything went well and smoothly
I was worried about the organisation of laser correction because I had never been to Turkey and did not know how to get it done. Thanks to Bukimed and the operator Catherine, I was able to get reliable information about the clinic and have the operation. Thank you very much for everything went well and smoothly.
