"A trip to the clinic was done by Yana
Hello, I have serious scoliosis and some other health problems, it is necessary to operate scoliosis and preferably as soon as possible since it will only get worse ... In Ukraine, everyone refused to operate because there was a very big risk, Poland also refused ... Then I My coordinator Pavel Popkov wrote to Bookimed just a great person, he answers any questions even to stupid ones, he sent my documents to different clinics and finally the Galeazzi clinic was told to come for a detailed consultation ... The consultation was successful, everything seems to be going positive, waiting for a final decision from them! A trip to the clinic was done by Yana. She got us free tickets for a special program.

Drs seemed very good. The consultation was calm and professional but I was told I would have results within 2 working days. When I didn’t receive any information I returned to the hospital and was told I would be emailed within 24 hours. When that didn’t happen I had to come in again and was hugely surprised by a very rude and impatient receptionist who was dismissive and seemed to want to blame me somehow. She made some very unprofessional comments about me to colleagues in front of other patients when she thought I couldn’t hear. Other staff did their best to help afterwards but considering the money spent and my experience I would not recommend this place at all.

I went to the Galeazzi clinic. Milan. Italy. on my son's problem - gmgantism. Coordinators from Bookimed got involved. Had an online consultation. for which I paid 360 euros. All required documentation has been sent. references. analyses. x-rays. To determine the volume of the operation and the cost, they said that the patient needs to come to Milan. I'm from Ukraine. It's hard to describe how the journey cost me. with what difficulty. Upon arrival in Milan. we are consulted by another doctor and gives quite the opposite answer.!! Is it really impossible to agree and view all the documentation. y t. h and the video was sent!!! with immediately give a negative answer during an online consultation. why do it at all then? It's just a waste of money. not problem solving. Be careful!

Criteria for choosing an orthopedic clinic

  • World leading orthopedists

Of great importance in the treatment of orthopedic diseases abroad is the experience of the doctor and the number of operations performed by him. It is worth paying attention to the percentage of success of surgical treatment by a particular specialist and what methods he uses. Foreign patients in foreign clinics, as a rule, are accepted by the heads of orthopedic departments.

  • Unique orthopedic equipment

Some clinics are equipped with unique technologies that are not available in other medical centers. For example, at Liv Hospital in Turkey, doctors use MakoPlasty, a robotic assistant, to replace a knee joint. And the Italian clinic Galeazzi has an EOS imaging system that allows you to create 3D full-length images of the skeleton.

  • The presence of a rehabilitation department

The advantage for a medical institution is the presence of a rehabilitation department. Almost all diseases of the musculoskeletal system require rehabilitation, regardless of whether the treatment was surgical or conservative.
