Betsy • Consultation with a neurosurgeon Indonesia Mar 20, 2022

Verified review.
Thank you so much Bookimed for arranging everything
Prof. Kivit was very professional, explained thoroughly and knowledgeable. We got our appointment schedule very quick. Unfortunately during our consultation time, the data that we provided was incorrect so Prof. Kivit couldn't give his opinions accordingly. We were having a very good second opinion consultation with him. Thank you so much Bookimed for arranging everything.
