Rude staff. And the trip turned out to be in vain. So much time, effort and money was spent. Documents were preliminarily sent, and extracts available at that time, treatment passed, etc. They invited me to the examination and obtain a preliminary treatment plan, although it was clear to the provided procurers that treatment was impossible. They did the same thing that they had sent earlier, shrugged their hands and said Excuse me, we can’t help ... Грубый персонал. Да и поездка как оказалось прошла зря. Столько времени, сил и денег было потрачено. Предварительно были отправлены документы, и имеющиеся на тот момент выписки, пройденное лечение и тд. Пригласили на обследование и получение предварительного плана лечения, хотя по предоставленным документам понятно было что лечение невозможно. Сделали все тоже самое что отправили ранее, развели руками и сказали Простите ничем не можем помочь...

Laser eye surgery Patient Reviews by Bookimed patients


Everything went at the highest level. In the beginning, there were inconsistencies in the organization, which were immediately resolved for the benefit of the client, that is, me. Doctor of the aphthalmologist Belma Karini, I can only recommend, golden pens! The result of the operation exceeded all expectations not only of mine, but also of the doctor. Special thanks to the translator Dinara, she will not forget anything, she will organize everything, everything is clear and harmonious with her. The clinic is new, the wards are very clean and comfortable. I would say the Chambers are more like a luxury hotel suite. Everything in the shower glistens with towels, shampoos, etc. I RECOMMEND UNIFORMALLY !!!
Всё прошло на высшем уровне. В начале были несосстыковки по организации, которые моментально решались во благо клиента, то бишь меня. Врача афтальмолога Бельму Карини, могу только рекомендовать, золотые ручки! Результат операции превзошёл все ожидания не только мои, но и врача. Отдельное спасибо переводчице Динаре, ничего не забудет, всё организует, всё четко и слаженно у нее. Клиника новая, палаты очень чистые, и уютные. Я бы сказала, Палаты похожи больше на номер люкс дорогого отеля. В душе всё блестит полотенца, шампуньки и т.д.
РЕКОМЕНДУЮ ОДНОЗНАЧНО!!!
I went to Liv hospital to do laser vision correction with the femto lasik method. However, I was not able to do this operation. The doctor who examined me found a small chance of 1 in 5,000 of the occurrence of a complication after the operation, and refused to do the operation. This is a brief description of my trip. Now I will tell in detail. I came to Istanbul for the second time to see a doctor to do a laser vision correction. The first time was in October 2018, but then I needed to strengthen the retina with an argon laser. Strengthening the retina was successful, and now my retina is in good condition. And the laser vision correction was postponed to December 2018. When I arrived in December (I am writing about this trip now), the doctor already knew that I want to do a laser vision correction. However, the operation was canceled. I do not understand why the doctor did not warn me about the cancellation of the operation earlier, in October? He could have examined me in October using his instruments. I specifically singled out a week in December for this operation, but the operation was not done. On the other hand, this doctor has a strong positive side - for a modest fee, he gave me quite a lot of time and attention. First, he examined me with his instruments, where he works. The devices showed that the situation with the right eyes is uncertain - it is unclear whether it is possible to perform an operation, or not. Then the doctor examined me several times with the same instruments, analyzed my images for a long time and discussed the problem with the nurses and the nurse. It took a few hours. Then the doctor said that my situation was not quite normal, and I contacted my colleague who works at American University Hastanesi, if I remember the name correctly. In this place recently appeared some new ophthalmologic apparatus, which is considered one of the newest. And the doctor arranged for me to do an additional examination there on this device free of charge in order to clarify my borderline situation. Then came the negative point: the doctor said that my situation is borderline, and if I have an operation, there is a small risk of complications on the sclera or on the cornea, I did not understand exactly. If there are complications, another operation will be needed. Therefore, I have one day to decide whether I agree to have surgery despite the risk. I thought until the morning, decided to have an operation and reported it. However, after that the doctor invited me to his place, talked about the fact that he would not take the risk, and as a result refused to do the operation. I do not understand, if the doctor in any case decided not to have an operation for me, why did he ask me to think one day and make a decision? In addition, if I can’t do the femto lasik correction, why haven’t I been offered an alternative - the smile method, the implantation of phakic lenses? Why didn’t the doctor say a word about these alternatives? I myself asked about phakic lenses, but the doctor and the staff were very busy at that time, in parallel with me the doctor was still taking other patients, and I did not receive an answer to the question. This is the description of my trip to Liv Hospital. Next, I will look for another doctor to do a laser vision correction. Я ездил в Лив госпиталь, чтобы сделать лазерную коррекцию зрения методом femto lasik. Однако мне не удалось сделать эту операцию. Врач, который меня обследовал, обнаружил небольшую вероятность 1 из 5000 возникновения осложнения после операции, и отказался делать операцию. Таково краткое описание моей поездки. Теперь расскажу подробно. Я уже второй раз приезжал в Стамбул к этому врачу, чтобы сделать лазерную коррекцию зрения. Первый раз был в октябре 2018, но тогда мне было необходимо провести укрепление сетчатки аргонным лазером. Укрепление сетчатки прошло успешно, и сейчас моя сетчатка находится в нормальном состоянии. А лазерную коррекцию зрения перенесли на декабрь 2018. Когда я приехал в декабре (про эту поездку я сейчас и пишу), врач уже знал, что я хочу сделать лазерную коррекцию зрения. Тем не менее операция была отменена. Мне непонятно, почему врач не предупредил меня об отмене операции раньше, в октябре? Он ведь мог меня обследовать в октябре, используя свои приборы. Я специально выделил неделю в декабре на эту операцию, а операцию не сделали. С другой стороны, у этого врача есть сильная положительная сторона - за умеренную плату он уделил мне довольно много времени и внимания. Сначала он обследовал меня своими приборами, там, где он работает. Приборы показали, что с правым глазам ситуация неопределенная - неясно, то ли можно делать операцию, то ли нельзя. Затем врач еще несколько раз обследовал меня на тех же приборах, долго анализировал мои снимки и обсуждал проблему с медсестрами и медбратом. Это заняло несколько часов. Затем врач сказал, что у меня ситуация не совсем обычная, и связался со своим коллегой, который работает в American University Hastanesi, если я правильно помню название. В этом месте недавно появился какой-то новый офтальмологический аппарат, который считается одним из самых новых. И врач договорился, чтобы мне бесплатно сделали там дополнительное обследование на этом аппарате, чтобы прояснить мою пограничную ситуацию. Дальше наступил негативный момент: врач сказал, что моя ситуация пограничная, и если сделать операцию, есть небольшой риск возникновения осложнений на склере или на роговице, я точно не понял. Если будут осложнения, нужна будет еще одна операция. Поэтому у меня есть один день, чтобы решить, согласен ли я сделать операцию несмотря на риск. Я подумал до утра, решил сделать операцию и сообщил об этом. Однако после этого врач пригласил меня к себе, поговорил о том, что он не пойдет на риск, и в итоге отказался делать операцию. Я не понимаю, если врач в любом случае решил не делать мне операцию, зачем он просил меня один день подумать и принять решение? Кроме того, если мне нельзя делать коррекцию методом femto lasik, почему мне не предложили альтернативу - метод smile, имплантацию факичных линз? Почему про эти альтернативные варианты врач ни слова не сказал? Я сам спрашивал про факичные линзы, но врач и персонал были в это время очень заняты, параллельно со мной врач принимал еще других пациентов, и ответа на вопрос я не получил. Таково описание моей поездки в Лив госпиталь. Далее я буду искать другого врача, чтобы сделать лазерную коррекцию зрения.
Good day! I enjoyed the trip to the WDC. Coordinator Maxim politely and quickly answered my application, made an appointment at the right time to see a doctor, gave a detailed description of how to get to the clinic. At wedge attentive, polite staff. The doctor is very competent, explained in detail all the questions of interest to me. Thank you very much. Добрый день! Мне понравилась поездка в МЦДЛ. Координатор Максим вежливо и быстро ответил на мою заявку, записал на прием в нужное время к доктору, дал подробное описание как добраться до клиники. В клиние внимательный, вежливый персонал. Доктор очень компетентный, подробно разъяснил все интересующие меня вопросы. Спасибо большое.
I conducted an eye examination and an operation to strengthen the retina with an argon laser at Liv Hospital. My operation was successful, I feel fine. Therefore, I am pleased with the treatment at Liv Hospital. From the positive points about the hospital, I can say the following. I have a good impression of the doctor who examined and treated me and his colleague who also examined me. In my case, the hospital organized a free transfer from the airport to the airport. Of the shortcomings I can name a few. First, translator Laysan did not do her job well because she did not translate everything I said to the doctor. When I asked a specific question - "Why should I not remove redness from the eye?" or "How long the eyes will recover after surgery" - she did not transfer them to the doctor. Instead, she herself began to say something to me, sometimes in a not very polite manner. When I asked to find out if the doctor could recommend me suitable glasses, she again did not want to transfer the doctor. After each of these questions that I asked, I had to persuade Leysan to make her translate them into Turkish and. Sometimes it was possible to persuade in a minute, sometimes she argued with me for a long time. This manner of communication had a bad effect on the quality of medical care, because of her I did not have time to discuss with my doctor some details concerning my health. In fact, my communication with the doctor was difficult. For a fair review, I note that Lysan did not always do this. Once she spent her time on purpose and helped me find out what I did not have time to ask the doctor during the reception. But still, translation difficulties were significant.
Я проводил в Liv Hospital офтальмологическое обследование и операцию по укреплению сетчатки аргонным лазером. Моя операция прошла успешно, я чувствую себя нормально. Поскольку для меня главной целью поездки было качественное лечение, я доволен лечением в Liv Hospital. Из положительных моментов о госпитале могу сказать следующее. У меня осталось хорошее впечатление о враче, который меня обследовал и лечил, и о его коллеге, который также меня обследовал. В моем случае госпиталь организовал бесплатный трансфер из аэропорта и до аэропорта. Из недостатков могу назвать несколько. Во-первых, переводчик Лейсан плохо выполняла свою работу, так как она не переводила все, что я говорил врачу, а вопросов у меня было много, так как я хотел быть уверен в результате лечения. Когда я спрашивал конкретные вопросы - "Почему мне не следует удалять покраснение из глаза?" или "Сколько времени глаз будет восстанавливаться после операции по укреплению сетчатки" - она не переводила врачу то, что я спросил, а просто пренебрегала моей фразой. Вместо ответа от врача она начинала сама что-то мне говорить, иногда в не очень вежливой форме. Когда я просил узнать, может ли врач порекомендовать мне подходящие очки, она снова не сразу хотела переводить врачу. После каждого из этих вопросов, которые указаны выше, мне приходилось уговаривать Лейсан, чтобы она все же перевела их на турецкий и спросила доктора. Иногда уговаривать удавалось за минуту, иногда дольше. Эту манеру общения я считаю недопустимой, из-за нее я не успел обсудить с врачом некоторые детали, касающиеся моего здоровья. Фактически, мое общение с врачом было затруднено. Для справедливого отзыва я отмечу, что Лейсан так действовала не всегда. Один раз она специально потратила свое время и помогла мне выяснить то, что я не успел спросить у врача во время приема. Но все равно, трудности с переводом были существенные. Перевод был неточным и неполным. Когда я тратил время, деньги, ехал в другую страну, я рассчитывал на получение качественной медицинской помощи. Но такие проблемы с переводчиком совершенно недопустимы. Второй недостаток - сразу после операции мне не дали детальных подробных рекомендаций, как себя лучше вести в период после операции. Можно было бы дать мне хотя бы лист бумаги, на котором эти рекомендации были бы написаны, но мне ничего не дали. Третий момент касается медицинского оборудования: во время моей операции пациенту нельзя допускать никаких движений глазами, так как это может быть опасно для глаз. При этом подбородок должен быть крепко прижат к опоре. И если при операции пациенту понадобится зачем-то сделать перерыв, он не сможет об этом сказать. Например, у меня по лицу текли глазные капли, лицо сильно чесалось, но сказать я об этом не мог, и мне пришлось ждать какое-то время до перерыва. Хорошо бы поместить на столе какую-нибудь кнопку, с помощью которой пациент сможет подать звуковой или световой сигнал врачу о том, что ему нужен перерыв в операции. Четвертое замечание также по оборудованию и по методике лечения: при укреплении сетчатки, когда недопустимо движение глазами, нужно смотреть в одну точку и расслабить глаз, к глазу прислоняется линза, глаз для этого требуется широко открыть, и это не очень приятно для пациента. Поэтому расслабить глаз не очень просто. Я бы хотел, во-первых, чтобы медицинское оборудование позволяло отслеживать случайные движения глаз в автоматическом режиме, чтобы исключить случайные негативные воздействия при операции, и во-вторых, хорошо бы каким-то образом помочь пациенту расслабить глаз.
Моим координатором в клинике был Роберт, меня полностью устраивает его работа. Он был внимательным, подробно обсудил со мной лечение, помог его организовать, выслал мне по почте приглашение в клинику.
Отдельно хочу сказать про работу Дмитрия Белика, моего координатора от Bookimed. Его работой я очень доволен. Он по настоящему внимательно отнесся к тем запросам, которые я выдвинул на лечение - прежде всего, качество, и еще не очень высокая цена. Он отвечал на все мои вопросы, которых было много. Такое впечатление, что Дмитрий по настоящему хотел понять, что я хочу получить, как будто он был на моем месте, и исходя из этого он подбирал клинику. Мы обсудили несколько клиник, и остановились на Liv Hospital. В этой клинике конечно есть недостатки, но мне кажется, что из существующих вариантов этот вариант был одним из самых подходящих. Также со мной работала Яна - координатор по организационным вопросам. Она помогла мне выбрать отель, найти трансфер в аэропорту и в нужный момент перенаправила мои медицинские вопросы Дмитрию. Так что Яна тоже работала очень хорошо.
Алексей, спасибо большое за приятные слова! Я рада, что вы довольны координацией нашего центра поддержки пациентов. Ваш отзыв очень важен для нас!
The medical services was very good and the doctors also specially Ph. Schargus He explained to us every thing about my son's case and he advice us to meet the cornea surgeon Prof. Geerling, Head of the University Eye Hospital in Düsseldorf and arranged to meet him so i would like to extend my thanks and appreciation to you and the hospital staff for your great efforts and supports.
I had SMILE performed. Absolutely no down time, was out and about 20mins after procedure with 20/20 vision albeit a bit hazy. Haziness decreased over the next weeks. The procedure was painless and I found it quite interesting. Surgeon talks you through the procedure and was quite calming. It took approx 5mins per eye. The organization is very professional, I believe they have the latest equipment. Staff are excellent and helpful.
I received lasik back in March. My time at BGN was really great. The staff is super nice and super helpful. I can message at any time and get a response quickly. If you ever want to get your eyes fix I really recommend going to BGN in Busan.
Everyrhing is like a hospital supose to by... GREAT JOB.
Notaufnahme 12 Std.gewartet und durchweg unmotiviertes, unfreundliches Personal welches überhaupt keine Einfühlsamkeit zeigt. Der Job muss doch sowieso gemacht werden, warum nicht freundlich und mitfühlend? Auch dem Mitarbeiter würde es sicherlich dann am Ende des Tages besser gehen!Wo soll das bloß hinführen?
Fühlte mich von Anfang an sehr gut aufgehoben. Das gesamte Team ist freundlich, nett und kompetent. Ich kann EuroEyes Hamburg nur empfehlen. Vielen Dank an das gesamte Team.
Sehr kompetente Ärzte, top Behandlung, man fühlt sich gut aufgehoben. Habe mich vor 5 Jahren für eine Operation bei Euro Eyes entschieden, da einige Freunde auch sehr zufrieden waren . Mir wurden Multifokal Linsen implantiert. Das war unglaublich, wieder perfekt sehen ohne Brille oder Kontaktlinsen 👍🏼 Einfach alles super !!!
I've only had good experiences here. It's pricey but you can make actual appointments, for which you are generally seen on time, and the checkout process is efficient. The staff are well-trained and the bureaucratic process is well-refined. Of course, the doctors are top notch. Value added: it's a very nice hospital in aesthetic terms.
I did my full medical checkup here on Friday(with prior appointment). It was really amazing 5 stars experience and here are the positive things about this hospital -Free transportation for the patients from Bangkok international airport to the Hospital or hotels nearby. -Professional and enough staff available to help you. -Amazing ambience, clean, decorated like a 5 stars hotel!! -It took around 4 hours to complete the whole checkup including meeting the Doctor for the results (written report will get after 2 days) -If you speak Arabic, this is best place for you as they have translators and some staff knows some Arabic words. -open mini-buffet included if you take the medical checkup. Here are the only 2 negatives -This hospital prices are high compared to other hospitals in bangkok. But it worth it as you will feel at home!! Clean, helpful and always smiling and welcoming staff!!

As a tourist you don't know what to expect when you're out of Australia. I got some mystery illness and the way I got treated, at Sourasky Tel Aviv Medical centre was outstanding, the speed, the ease, the cheerfulness were great. I’d particularly like to mention Dr Rana Matal. If you end up there do yourself a favour and ask for her. She’s excellent.
The best treatment, high professionalism, humanity, attitude towards patients is here and only here. Cardio department, you guys a deep bow for all your work, intensive care unit - thank you all very much, you are Gods, you are doing miracles, your professionalism is beyond praise.

Nette und gute Ärzte, wenig warte Zeit.
