My opinion is that, even though it's a business the core of it is the desire to help people who want to regain their health as much as possible back, the emotional intelligence and a necessary level of empathy and expertise which everyone from the clinic showed me.

I am very satisfied with the work of bookimed. The organization went very quickly, all the questions of interest were not left unanswered. And any fears disappeared after talking with the medical coordinator Ekaterina. I was introduced to the best specialists in the field of mammoplasty. And I'm very happy with my choice of Dr. Since the result of the operation exceeded all my expectations! The photo shows a comfortable room in which I was after the operation.
