Jestem po kilku próbach leczenia. Nieskutecznie. Zainwestowałem w balon kapsułkowa Aluriona … wyrzucone pieniądze. Jestem po operacji u prof Kowalskiego i znów wróciła nadzieja. Kwalifikacja do leczenia, diagnostyka przebiegła sprawnie i kompleksowo. Zostałem dokładnie poinformowany o leczeniu i rekonwalescencji . Pobyt w klinice bez zarzutu Miły personel Lekarz w klinice na dyżurze po moim zabiegu. Czułem się bezpieczny.
Pierwsza wizyta u Pana Dr. Kowalskiego konkretnie,rzeczowo. Szybki termin zabiegu.Polecam

Lepiej się tego zrobić nie dało.
Pan Doktor usunął mi pęcherzyk żółciowy w poniedziałek o 17, w środę o 9 byłam już pracy.
Ani jednej tabletki przeciwbólowej.
Mini rany po nacięciach-gojenie ekspresowe.
Chapeau bas Panie Doktorze!
