the full experience was so very nice to navigate
Considering that we were traveling into Istanbul late on Saturday night, my support member was still texting with me and the doctor on a Sunday so that I was able to see the doctor Monday morning and then booked into surgery the following day. That would not happen other places, and the full experience was so very nice to navigate!!
With the help of Bookimed, which assisted me in finding the best physician for my needs, I could not be more satisfied with the outcome of the surgery. The entire process was very straightforward, and all involved were extremely courteous and responsive.
Only that I needed the procedure in the 1st place.
