Я хотел бы поделиться своим опытом лечения аденокарциномы в Турции. Это был для меня нелегкий период, но благодаря профессионализму и заботе медицинского персонала, я чувствовал себя в хороших руках. Моя поездка в Турцию началась с первичной консультации с врачом — доктором Хале Чалар, которая работает в Анадолу. Я был приятно удивлен ее доброжелательностью и вниманием к моим вопросам и опасениям. Врач провела все необходимые обследования и объяснила мне план лечения, дав мне полную картину процесса. Врачи и медсестры были очень профессиональными и доброжелательными, всегда готовыми помочь и ответить на мои вопросы. В целом, мое лечение аденокарциномы в Турции было успешным и положительным опытом. Я благодарен всему медицинскому персоналу за их профессионализм, заботу и внимание, которые они оказывали мне на протяжении всего процесса. Если кто-то ищет качественное лечение за границей, я рекомендовал бы обратить внимание на Турцию.
I have bone cancer for which Dr. Hale Basak recommended Cyberknife radiosurgery. She did the procedure by herself and I am feeling better after it.
