"I am very grateful to the Bookimed consultants who helped me choose the Ichilov Medical Center
My brother has epilepsy .. Without a doubt, the Ichilov clinic is an excellent choice for examinations and treatment of various diseases. And the narrow specialization of doctors make it one of the best in the world. I am very grateful to the Bookimed consultants who helped me choose the Ichilov Medical Center. You really know what you pay money for! Thanks to my consultants, Ostap and Yulia for their work .. I tried to get in touch with the clinic directly, but through Bookimed I managed to organize everything quickly. You can just trust them and not worry. Help and in choosing a doctor and with housing.

Everything was great. They got a little confused with the time of admission (it was not possible to find out whether it was from the side of the clinic or Bookimed), and since the clinic is in another city, it was difficult to immediately adjust their plans. In the end, everything ended well. Thank)
