Putting aside what I saw, I wouldn't have believed it if someone had told me that there was such a doctor. A great doctor with an excellent personality and extraordinary experience. My brother was diagnosed with acute leukemia and while I did not know what to do, where to go, God brought Dr. Elke Jaeger before us. It is very difficult to express what we felt when we met Dr. Elke for the first time. Her stance, communication, and approach are so sincere that I knew from the first day that my brother will be fine. And today I can gladly say that our hard time is over, my brother does not even take medicines anymore, and is living a healthy life.
I got to the best oncohematologist in Germany - to the doctor and professor Elke Jaeger. She works at Nordwest Medical Center. The most famous clinic in Europe. I had the latest CAR T cell therapy. It's incredibly expensive. Collected money all over the world, but she helped me. Blood cancer is not a sentence! You need to be treated, you need to ask people to help. Because money is not the main thing, but the important thing is life. With the world on a string, as they say.
My younger sister got diagnosed with anemia 2 weeks ago. She had a low level of blood cells in her body so we decided to get her treatment from a good doctor. We had several names in our mind, however, we were impressed by Prof. Dr. Elke Jaeger who is quite a popular doctor in Germany. She treated my sister with great care and her medications helped my sister to recover faster than expected.
When someone is diagnosed with breast cancer, do not even think that it could happen to you. And even when you are diagnosed, I think, but probably the doctor was mistaken, you need to go to another, and the new doctor will say that you've been well! But in my case not such a miracle happened...Losing a lot of time on ineffective treatment in various clinics, I came to the clinic with advanced cases of Nordvest. Professor Elke jäger, who heads the Department of Hematology and Oncology, had to put a lot of effort to help me in my difficult situation. Now I have a period of remission. I am under the supervision of, and with such a good doctor as Yeager, I believe in a positive outcome!
