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.

Treatment with Gamma Knife is conducted at Asklepios Radiosurgery Center. A radiologist and neurosurgeon perform the procedure.

The irradiation does not require making incisions and is entirely painless. Doctors apply soft sedation to make a patient feel comfortable. A special helmet is used to fix the patient’s head to exclude movements. It increases the accuracy of treatment.

The duration of therapy is from 30 minutes to 2 hours.

Everything is fine, they arranged a remote consultation to understand whether it is possible to perform an operation. This format is definitely needed, very useful. I can say that the patients would write down all their questions in advance, so that later they would not think that they should ask the doctor, you also need to think in advance what you want in principle from the consultation and then it will definitely be useful.
