FAQ about Prostate cancer Treatment in Italy

How is the best prostate cancer centers ranking composed?

The ranking of top hospitals for urology cancer treatment is dynamic. It means that the position of the cancer centers is changing depending on such factors:

  • Popularity of a particular hospital for prostate oncology treatment
  • Patient reviews
  • Price policy of the medical institution
  • Doctors' experience in urology and prostate cancer operations.

If the prostate cancer center receives a low evaluation or poor patient reviews, it goes down in the rating. This is automatically composed ranking without subjective opinion.

Bookimed directly cooperates only with the world's leading centers, certified and approved by prestigious cancer associations. Before starting a partnership, we carefully check each hospital to be sure our patients will receive the most qualitative medical assistance.

How to choose the best hospital for prostate cancer?

It may seem difficult to choose the best urology cancer center for some people. Pay attention to such factors to receive the most effective treatment:

  • Patient reviews. Learn more about the experience of other patients who received treatment at the particular prostate cancer center. It will help you to understand the level of medical services and the success of therapy in the hospital.
  • Doctor's experience. The key factor to a successful outcome is the experience of a doctor. Learn his/her CV to make sure of the professionalism. If you are looking for a specialist in a specific treatment option for prostate cancer (HIFU, brachytherapy, or Da Vinci prostatectomy), find out how many procedures a doctor has performed.
  • Treatment cost. The price for the prostate cancer treatment may vary from country to country. If you want to save money, choose clinics located in India, Turkey, the Czech Republic. It will be 40-60% cheaper than in the USA, Germany, or Austria, for instance.
  • Hospital's location. Choose the clinic that is located not too far from your own country. It will make travel comfortable and reduce ticket charges.

If you need any assistance in choosing the best prostate cancer treatment center, ask Bookimed manager. You will receive a free consultation and answers to all your questions.
