On the whole, everything is operational in the clinic, as soon as we entered the girl’s clinic at the reception, they quickly reacted. Professor himself Dr. Med. Barberra took us very politely, took a lot of time to adapt the child to himself, so that he would get used to it, because the child was scared, the professor took a direct individual approach, which is rare enough for a doctor of this level, especially considering that he is not at all a child, even a surgeon, so I want to note this moment, so the little patient, of course, is worth contacting. The doctor promptly worked because he didn’t see the problem in his direction and redirected us to orthopedists where we were also promptly given an x-ray. Nord Clinics Alyan is very accurate in the organization, that is, we were met minute by minute in time, I want to mention Karina, a girl translator, who accompanied us all the time, no delays, no extra calls. В целом в клинике все оперативно, как только мы поступили в клинику девушки на ресепшене быстро среагировали. Сам профессор Dr. Мed. Barberra принял нас очень вежливо, уделил много времени адаптации ребенка к себе, что бы он привык, поскольку ребенок был испуган, профессор проявил прям индивидуальный подход, что достаточно редко для доктора такого уровня особенно учитывая что он вовсе не детский даже хирург, поэтому хочу отметить именно этот момент, так что маленьким пациента, конечно, стоит туда обращаться. Доктор оперативно сработал поскольку по своему направлению не увидел проблему и перенаправил нас к ортопедам где нам так же оперативно сделали рентген. Норд Клиник Альян очень точные в организации, то есть нас минута в минуту по времени встретили, отдельно хочу отметить Карину, девушка переводчик, все время нас сопровождала, никаких задержек, никаких лишних звонков делать не приходилось.

Everything was fine. In general, the place was very well and the doctor was very professional. I'd be happy to suggest the treatment in this hospital to my wife as well.
I did an online consultation with the doctor thou was expecting a good feedback but instead it turned out to be a heartbreaking one but it was a fact maybe that I didn't knew but otherwise they are average.
A little disappointing (quick answers and little time for the patient) Немного разочаровывать ( быстрые ответы и мало времени для пациента)
Уважаемая Наталья, для контроля качества предоставляемых услуг, мы уточнили у секретаря профессора, ваш прием у Prof. Dr. med. Melchior 14.02.2020 длился около часа, что вдвое превышает стандартное время приема врача. В случае, если у вас остались какие-либо вопросы или уточнения, пожалуйста, сообщите нам в письменной форме и мы обязательно получим для вас дополнительные разъяснения/рекомендации профессора.
I requested a second opinion for the treatment of prostate cancer for my dad. The cosultation was provided in written by Prof. Dr. med. Sebastian Melchior. He answered all my initial questions and the ones I've sent after his initial answers in meter of few days. This helped us in understanding better the situation and possible options. However due to the fact that most of the answers were of general rather specific nature, in the end we are still not sure what is the better treatment in our case.
I have chosen 2nd opinion from Germany. The medical team was great. It was very helpful experience. Thank you so much. This site helped a lot and people are very ethical and supportive.
The Bookimed doctors are always cooperative, friendly and very supporting in consultation about critical and complicated medical situations. Starting from explaining the case and preparing the required documents until the second opinion is provided and explained in good detail and finally following up to make sure everything is settled. Thank you Bookimed team!
The consultation was good. We received answers to all our questions.For sure I will recommend you.
I would like to thank the Vookimed international client support center and coordinator Ekaterina for selecting and organizing a consultation at the Nord Alliance clinic. The work was built clearly, efficiently, without exerting any psychological pressure. For all questions of interest to me, Ekaterina provided, at short intervals, the most tactful, detailed documents and payment for services.
On one point of joint cooperation they did not mislead me, I received a detailed conclusion and in the clinic itself they also answered all that I was concerned about. On her own research she was convinced that they can be trusted. Once again, thank you so much
Хочется выразить благодарность международному центру поддержки клиентов Вookimed и координатору Екатерине за подбор и организацию консультации в клинике Норд Альянс. Работа построена четко, оперативно, без оказания какого-либо психологического давления. На все интересующие меня вопросы, Екатериной предоставлены в короткие промежутки времени максимально тактичные подробные документов и оплате услуг.
Ни по одному моменту совместного сотрудничества меня не ввели в заблуждение, я получила подробное заключение и в самой клинике мне ответили также на все, что волновало. На собственном опыте убедилась, что им можно доверять. Еще раз, огромное спасибоI
Спасибо, что проявляли доверие и терпение на всех этапах организации заочной консультации. Искренне рада, что смогла Вам помочь. Отдельная благодарность за подробный отзыв о работе Bookimed, сотрудников международного отдела клиники и квалифицированных специалистах Бремен-Митте ( Норд Клиник Альянс).
Everything is normal, there are no questions and comments! Все нормально, вопросов и замечаний нет!
Danke bin Jahre lang da. Und bekomme kein Rezept mehr ohne Karte. Seid dem dr. Med. Schopmans da weg ist, gibt es keine gute Behandlung mehr.
Nette und gute Ärzte, wenig warte Zeit.
Reliable doctors, I never had to wait inappropriately long, staff always kind and helpful. Excellent front office in the ground floor, too.
Nie wieder zu der Frauenarztpraxis!!!Ich habe tierische Unterleib schmerzen, will als Notfall vorbei kommen und man sagt mir das es heute nicht gehen würde ..... dann auch noch unfreundliches personal am Telefon unmögliches Verhalten
Kaum Wartezeit und das Personal und die Ärzte sind nett
Für Impfungen und Krankschreibungen gut, da man unkompliziert und schnell dran kommt. Die Empfangsdamen finde ich auch besonders freundlich.Wenn ich jedoch wirklich mal gesundheitliche Probleme hatte, wurde mir nicht patent oder gar motiviert geholfen.Krankengymnastik wird anscheinend grundsätzlich nicht verschrieben (außer nach Op oder Schlaganfall laut Ärztin)Meine Bemühungen mein Krankheitsbild mit Hilfe einer Heilpraktikerin aufzuklären, wurden dreist belächelt und als unwirksamer Schabernack abgetan. Bei einem tiefen Schnitt im Finger wurde ich mit schlecht und unzureichendem verband zum Chirurgen weiter geschickt. Wer einen wirklich guten Hausarzt sucht, der an Ursachenbehebung interessiert ist, anstatt an der Wirkung rum zu doktorn, guckt vielleicht noch einmal woanders.
Sehr effizient!
Ich bin sehr unzufrieden da Dr. K. Venzky mir nach einem Laborbefund ein einfalsches Medikamt verschrieb. Erst nach eigenen Recherchen wurde es aufgedeckt.
Nie wieder behandelt einfach nicht
Dr. Zoll ist großartig.
