"It is unfortunate that politics affects not only ordinary citizens, but also their children
We successfully operated on our daughter Nika Popova at the San Donato clinic (Italy). Thank you so much for the Bookimed service for the excellent organization of the trip. Our manager Aleksey Karaganov was always in touch and helped with all issues (visas, booking, medical and legal issues). The clinic, staff, ward are all at the highest level and the main thing is that real masters of their craft work there. Our attending physicians were delighted with the results of the most complicated heart surgery, the Ross operation. It is unfortunate that politics affects not only ordinary citizens, but also their children. I wish you patience, kindness and health to you and your loved ones, so that as many children from all over the world as possible can receive help. Thank you very much to Alexei and your entire team.

So, he was very knowledgeable, very genius and expertise
It was full of information consultation and Dr Francesco Maisano was very generous in providing us with multiple solutions for my father's case with mentioning the best solution among them and why it was the best solution. So, he was very knowledgeable, very genius and expertise. I strongly recommend this service. One issue was that the bookimed was helpful, very fast in replying but the files I sent to them to share it with Dr Francesco Maisano, they didn't share it all, but it was fixed shortly. Overall, it was an excellent experience. Special thanks to Dr Francesco Maisano, thank you San Donato hospital and thank you Bookimed team.

"I can safely recommend this doctor, operations are performed here every day, everything is thought out to the smallest detail and you do not care, as in Moscow, for example, what equipment or conditions for treatment are lacking
I'll tell you how it all happened, maybe it will help someone make their choice. I'll start with the fact that I was looking for a clinic for a long time to treat my son both in Europe and in Russia. The son is 5 years old, it was necessary to carry out a radical operation on the aortic valve, plastic or Rosa operation. The second is very difficult to perform, so it was important to find a surgeon with extensive experience. Alessandro Frigiola has a lot of experience. In Moscow, there are generally few reviews about Italian medicine, but after visiting here I can safely recommend this doctor, operations are performed here every day, everything is thought out to the smallest detail and you do not care, as in Moscow, for example, what equipment or conditions for treatment are lacking. I liked the San Donato clinic itself, despite the fact that almost no one speaks Russian, language barriers almost did not interfere, the staff are caring, they treat children with love. The atmosphere is pleasant here. Special thanks to the staff of international treatment organizations, the department may not write correctly, but I think it's clear. For all questions 24/7, you can contact them, Olga Gribova helped organize everything for a whole year. An excellent translator, Mariana, who also helps to communicate with doctors in the clinic and is constantly in touch if any problems arise. For all questions, even those that did not concern treatment, the girls always responded very responsively and helped. Thanks to them, the trip turned out to be much easier morally and with less worries. I was allowed to visit my son in intensive care. He stayed there for 2 days, and could have stayed less, but there were delays due to a smear on the covid, so they decided to keep him there, because the operation was difficult. Accommodation here is separate from the hospital, but Olga also helped with this issue. Everything was organized very quickly, there is no red tape with documents, as, for example, in Germany. As for the ward itself, in principle, everything is like everywhere else, I have no particular complaints.

"The nurse are nice and the food is very good and my mom surgery went very good by Dr
I want to thank Dr.Murtada, because he’s the one who arrange it with the hospital. he was with us the whole way asking if we need anything, if everything is OK and I keep asking him a question too but he doesn’t get tired he googled and answer or he calls them straight to figure out the situation. At first me doing it by myself make me tired of emailing all of the hospital in India but after I contact Bookimed he finish everything that it takes me three weeks to due in 2days.The hospital was good to us, they arrange driver named Manpreet Singh that can speak English and take us everywhere we ask am and help us travel popular places, he is the best. I want to thank Karan Kumar for being with us until the end he is the one who take care of everything in the hospital for us and outside of the hospital too. The nurse are nice and the food is very good and my mom surgery went very good by Dr. Anoop k Ganjoo, he is really good doctor. I will recommend you changing your dollar to rupees before going to India.
About Bookimed service
I am very satisfied with support by Dr. Murtada, he make me feel like somebody was with me while I was struggling with this medical situation. he ask and check on me like he’s one of my family, I want to thank him so much for everything he have done for me and my family. If I need to travel anywhere for vacation or medical travel I will for sure come back again.

Dr
Hello. I just wanted to mention some of the things that happened, so that your team is in the loop of what your customers are going through. I was contacted by Dr. Sadeq, which was very pleasant to communicate with. Roman on the other hand, was not clear about anything from the beginning. Saying “don’t worry, it is okay.” After confirming the doctors, and sending all my medical files 2 weeks ahead of time, I came to realise that the doctors have no idea about my condition. I walked in to a confused doctor, not even knowing that I have heart failure. I saw this as quite unprofessional that they haven’t even had time to review my documents. Once the doctor asked for my files, Roman did not have them, and I was forced to give a brief summary of what happened. This made me feel that my case was of no interest or importance to the representative. After finally managing to see the surgeon, he said that was the only day he was available (March 2nd), and that he was flying for work elsewhere. He had asked me to come back on the 16th of March. I could not believe that, as I have paid for tickets, plus hotels for two people (my mother joining) for 10 days in Vienna, when the doctor is not even there to do the surgery I was supposed to do. Do you know what the costs are of this mishap? After that, we ended up seeing another cardiologist recommended by the cardio surgeon. He was great, but when we came back the next day for ROman’s set appointment, it turns out there was no appointment, and he “had to go” and left me to deal with the hospital. The communication with Roman was horrible. I was just waiting in the lobby for 3 days not knowing what will happen, what are the fees, and no warnings or consultations. Especially when an x-ray costs 2,500 euros, I would have appreciated an initial warning of the costs. Not just “come pay” style that he has. That is as much as the biopsy, which I will still have to do in the future. I have experience with companies like yours, but the unprofessionalism, lack of communication, and unorganisation is unprecedented. I am going out of my way just to clarify what my experience was with your team, with handling things. The hospital and doctors were great. It was just the missteps by Roman that was upsetting.
About Bookimed service
I was not happy with Roman, the representative in Vienna due to many reasons. I have passed on my experience to Varvara.

Many thanks to Bookimed for the opportunity to meet different specialists and clinics in Turkey, compare, read reviews, and study information in an understandable language. It’s hard to even imagine how much time, financial and professional costs it took for the creators to make the information so accessible and complete for the patient. Thank you for your work and choosing such a useful niche as this! It is so important for the patient to be able to communicate with the manager at any time: to talk, consult, discuss personal issues and possible risks. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Before finding you, I had experience communicating with two organizations that provide services in the field of medical tourism, but unfortunately, commerce and the desire to sell specific specialists without options is alarming and does not inspire confidence at all. On the other hand, I’m even glad that I had such a short communication experience, especially since I was able to evaluate the capabilities of Bookimed! I understand that for the reader my review may be similar to an ode of praise, but as they say, “you can’t erase words from a song.”))) Therefore, I can only continue to talk about how it was in my specific case. Thanks to the Khizar clinic for a luxurious spacious room with floor-to-ceiling windows, an additional sofa for visitors, as well as delicious meals three times a day. It would seem difficult to surprise us with high-quality Turkish service in a hotel, but when your stay in the clinic is exactly the same as in a hotel, it is much more valuable at a time when you are absolutely alone in a foreign country and your physical capabilities are temporarily limited. Everything was thought out to the smallest detail: it so happened that I arrived for the operation unaccompanied, with a small backpack. This was extremely important for me: everything I could need was provided or was already available in my favorite room opposite the reception. The operation was scheduled for the afternoon, so the most difficult time was at night. The nurse who was on night duty did a tremendous job and until 6 am did everything as required according to the protocol after the operation. Yes, you can say, how could it be otherwise, you paid the money and it should be so, but you and I know very well that no one has canceled the human factor, and patients in this state after surgery cannot always read carefully in English doctor's recommendation language. Therefore, I send rays of love to this Great Man!!! Every 40 minutes He applied cold compresses, fed me even at night, and then took me for a walk along the long corridor of the clinic. This is an invaluable experience for me, not only because it is important for rehabilitation and health, but also for my personal faith in people. Low bow to the doctor for his professionalism, ability to listen to the patient and a high-quality operation. I would also like to thank Gulshirin Beshimova for the opportunity to make my stay in Turkey as comfortable as possible. Just as theater begins with a coat rack, so in my case Istanbul greeted me with a friendly smile from the driver and a luxurious car. It is impossible not to mention Alpay. I’ve been driving for 20 years, but I’ve never seen anyone pay such attention to the car and the passengers sitting in the back seat: TV, music from all over the world, water of different temperatures, drinks, napkins, a footrest for comfortable feet, and even a fresh bouquet of herbs to scent the salon! My applause!!! Bookimed! Türkiye! You have won me over! What a pity that I didn’t know before that everything could be like this! She curtsied. Your Eva❤️

Was on vacation in the state of Goa. Before the trip, he performed an operation to remove prostate adenoma, according to the results of a biopsy, he found signs of adenocarcinoma. In order to have different opinions, the doctors decided to consult with a local oncourologist from Manipal hospital. Ostap Bondarenko from Bookimed arranged for me to see a doctor. Before that, he attempted to contact the hospital on his own, but they did not respond.  Everything is well organized there. I like it. All questions discussed. Translator Svetlana first discussed everything with me and clarified the terminology. And then at the reception everything is available to the doctor translated my questions and his advice to me.  The doctor is very competent and explained to me all possible treatment options and the necessary research.

Today, on June 5, I came back to the homologue and she looked at the pictures and said that all is not well worry. And in Russia, they saw a tumor from somewhere.

Very god and experienced surgeon, I recommend him to everyone who needs bariatric surgery. Unfortunately I can’t say the same about the hospital . The hospital was a big disappointment. Despite nurse Berna it was a big problem to get competent medical care. The staff do not speak English, that is worsening the situation.Very low level of medical qualifications of the nurses . No help from caregivers. I kindly recommend to the surgeon to choose another hospital for the future.

Mom could not make an accurate diagnosis, and we decided to be examined in Korea. I left a request in bookimed. And what surprised immediately rang. I told you how, all the tests that were done, and I was advised by the Ehwa clinic. We immediately agreed and signed up with a mammologist. Everything is clean in the clinic, all doctors, all medical staff are qualified, and very friendly. The translator was with my mother all the time, and he explained everything very clearly. They quickly took the tests, and immediately established a diagnosis, they said it was necessary to do the operation. The operation lasted 5 hours (general preparation, etc.) after the operations in the clinic 10 days. They did everything neatly, everything had almost healed. I am satisfied with the clinic and the medical coordinators of Bookimed. Thank you all very much!

The hospital is big. This has both positive and negative points . Due to the number of people, sometimes it resembles a shopping center. And it adds a bit of chaos, both to the logistics of finding the right department or office, and to the general atmosphere. Doctors and staff are most friendly and helpful.

FAQ about Coronary artery bypass grafting

Indications and contraindications for CABG

There are following indications for CABG:

  • over 50% obstruction of the left coronary artery;
  • 70% narrowing of cardiac vessels;
  • stenosis of the anterior interventricular branch;
  • disabling angina;
  • ongoing ischemia that is unresponsive to medical therapy.

Before performing the operation, physicians examine patient’s medical history. Some factors may lead to complications during the intervention or rehabilitation period. There are following contraindications for CABG:

  • recent myocardial infarction;
  • recent cardiac surgery;
  • chest radiation exposure;
  • conditions that predispose to bleeding (poor coagulation);
  • renal dysfunction;
  • infections (including STDs and dental abscesses);
  • chronic non-specific pulmonary pathologies;
  • oncology.

Types of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Coronary artery bypass grafting is divided into:

  • On-Pump CABG. This operation presumes using heart-lung bypass machine to allow surgeons operating on the still heart. During surgery, the chest bone is opened and the heart stopped with medicines. When the operation is complete, the heart usually starts beating by itself. Otherwise, a small electrical shock is used to start it up.
  • Off-Pump CABG on the beating heart. In some cases, off-pump operation on the beating heart is more viable, as it allows to avoid certain complications. An off-pump procedure is recommended for patients with advanced stages of atherosclerosis of the aorta, kidney malfunction, or pulmonary diseases. Off-pump CABG reduces risks of postoperative inflammation, infection, and arrhythmia.
  • Minimally invasive direct CABG. This procedure is similar to off-pump surgery. The difference is surgeons make few small incisions between the ribs instead of cutting the chest bone.

In some cases several bypasses are required. Find out how much does a triple heart bypass cost by submitting a request on Bookimed site. Our Doctor Coordinator will contact you shortly to provide a consultation.

The coronary artery bypass surgery cost is calculated for patients individually in each particular case.

Coronary artery bypass graft procedure can be performed in 3 ways. The choice of particular type of graft depends on the location of the blocked area, size of the damaged area and diameter of the artery.

“Grafts” are vein and artery that act as an anastomosis, creating a bypass on obstructed cardiac vessels and restoring normal blood flow. The vein is usually taken from the leg of a patient, while the artery is relocated from the chest wall. During the operation, a surgeon sews up the original vessel of the patient to the coronary artery near the area of narrowing. That allows the blood flow to “bypass” the blocked area.

Grafting process

Internal thoracic artery is commonly used graft as it has the best long-term results: veins are less likely to become blocked over time. A surgeon takes the artery from its area and sews its ends in the coronary artery bypassing obstructed segment.

Radial artery is located in the hand together with the ulnar artery. Considering that the ulnar artery is a dominant blood supplier of the hand, removal of the radial artery during the operation does not pose a threat to the organism.

Great saphenous vein is often used as a graft. It is a long vessel running along the inner side of the leg. To take the vein a surgeon makes an incision or several small incisions along its location.

Preparation for CABG

A patient is hospitalized 3-5 days prior to the surgery. They undergo necessary examinations and prepare for the operation in the inpatient department. Following tests and examinations are conducted before the surgery:

  • coronary angiography;
  • chest radiography;
  • liver function test;
  • clotting screen;
  • ECG.

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting process

Premedication

Before the operation, a patient is administered a general anesthesia. Other medications are also introduced to patient’s body to reduce heart demand for oxygen by lowering arterial pressure and reducing heart rate. Myocardial blood flow is improved by the use of vasodilators.

In case of off-pump CABG, medications that temporary stop the heart will be administered after the incision in the chest bone.

Each patient is cross-matched with at least 2 units of blood to compensate for blood loss during or after the operation.

Operation process

The surgery lasts from 3 to 5 hours. The duration depends on the amount of bypassed arteries and health particularities of a patient. During the surgery, a heart-lung bypass device carries out functions of the heart and lungs. It is vital if physicians opted to operate on the non-beating heart. When finishing CABG, a doctor installs drain tubes in the chest to drain liquid from the operated area. Then the wound is stitched and a patient is delivered to the intensive care unit where they stay until complete stabilization.

Rehabilitation

Recovery in hospital

A patient stays in intensive care unit for 1-3 days after the operation. This period may take longer if complications take place, hospitalization duration influences how much does a heart bypass cost. Patient’s vitals will be constantly monitored. Various medicines that control blood circulation and pressure will be delivered through IV. Special catheter is inserted to drain urine. In some cases, oxygen therapy (oxygen delivered through a mask or nasal tubes) and/or temporary pacemaker is utilized. A physician may provide a patient with compression stockings. They apply gentle pressure on the legs preventing blood from pooling and clotting.

During the first days after the operation a patient must strictly follow these recommendations:

  • control the amount of consumed and excreted water; make notes for the attending doctor;
  • make respiratory exercises to stabilize breath and prevent pneumonia development. Respiratory gymnastics includes air toys, massage of the area above the lungs with tapping manipulations;
  • at the early stage of rehabilitation it is extremely important to cough up because some patients can aggravate the situation by coughing;
  • chest corset should be worn for the quickest healing of the wound.

Recovery at home

Before a patient is dismissed, a doctor gives them specific instructions and guidelines for recovery, including:

  • how to care for healing operative incisions;
  • how to recognize progressing complications;
  • when to make follow-up appointments.

A patient also receives information on how to deal with various side effects that may appear after the surgery. They include:

  • itching of incisions;
  • discomfort or muscle pains in the shoulders and upper back;
  • depression, mood swings, fatigue;
  • constipation;
  • insomnia;
  • loss of appetite.

Complete recovery usually takes up to 3 months. A physician will provide more information about recovery status, but usual physical activities can be re-engaged after approximately 6 weeks of rehabilitation.

Outlook

A patient can return to the sedentary work within 1.5 months after discharge from the hospital. Heavier physical work can require a longer period of recovery. Patients after CABG may lead their usual lifestyle. Walking and stair climbing are particularly useful during the rehabilitation period. Patients should avoid longtime walks during very cold or too hot weather which exhausts the organism.

Bad habits should be quitted: smoking and/or drinking can provoke a heart attack. A patient should constantly monitor their blood pressure. Diet must be revised: consumption of salt, fats, and cholesterol-rich products should be minimized. Weight control is desired.

Heart bypass surgery cost

Coronary artery bypass surgery cost depends on the following factors:

  • Type of performed CABG operation. Different types of procedure put different requirements on operating team and may prolong the duration of the operation thus influencing heart bypass cost.
  • A number of required bypasses. Some patients need two or three bypasses conducted in a single operation. Cost of triple heart bypass operation is higher than the regular single-bypass operation.
  • Patient condition. Coronary artery bypass graft cost is greatly influenced by patient’s health state during the operation. Additional medicines and devices might be used to ensure the operation success. A patient may be required to spend more time in intensive care unit.
  • Location. The average cost of heart bypass surgery varies in different countries. For example, in India or Turkey heart bypass surgery cost is 2-3 times lower than in the USA or Israel.
