3 Recent Cataract surgery (one eye) Reviews in Israel: Check Real Patient Experience

Аида • Consultation with an ophthalmologist Azerbaijan Feb 4, 2020

Verified review.
My assessment of the clinic was only because I did not stay there, only about 20 minutes for an OSTA examination. I was expecting a full examination because I was invited to the Ichilov-Surasky clinic, but was only in two private clinics for consultations. I chose the Vital hotel exclusively because of Considerations to be close to the clinic. Thank you very much Bookimed for choosing a clinic for us for 3 months and keeping in touch with us throughout the time that we were there, but their partners who deal with us upon arrival in the country are negligent about worn and not fully perform their obyazonnosti.Im want to advise humanity, we (people with health) eat with the hope of recovery! I wish you all Health and Kindness!
About Bookimed service
I am satisfied with Bookimed, but I advise you to change partners, only because of them I cannot accurately evaluate either the clinic or the treating doctors. Good luck and health to all Bookeemed employees

We had a remote consultation with Professor Ayala Hubert. The consultation was organized quickly, in a couple of days. The professor spoke in detail about the possible treatment and gave recommendations on which tests to take to control the disease. We are happy with the advice.
