I didn’t choose the doctor myself, it’s just that upon arrival at the hospital they made him the doctor for us. Well, I can't express my enthusiasm. But bad too. The doctor is like a doctor. In any case, thanks to all the staff of the clinic.

The doctor performed spinal surgery. there are no complaints about the doctor, he did everything qualitatively. it is clear that he is a professional. I was confused by the translator ... the translator was not always in touch. I was worried about the operation, so it was still unnerving. pay attention to the translator in the clinic

Some time ago I had breast augmentation with implants, but after a while I realized that it was not for me. Yes, the implant was quite small, but I could not get rid of the feeling of "unnatural" breasts. Therefore, she turned to the Aachen clinic for the removal of implants. The doctors also recommended that I undergo lipofilling in order to slightly correct the shape, while achieving a natural effect. The result came out just great!

Aachen university hospital is always my top priority when it comes to healthcare because I always had the best services at the hospital. Last year, I went to the clinic with a friend of mine who was diagnosed with stomach cancer and was experiencing severe symptoms. I took him to the clinic and the doctor performed all the diagnostic tests to detect the issue and the metastasis. Luckily it was stage 2 so the doctor suggested gastrectomy. My friend was not ready for surgery but I encouraged him. It went well and now he is completely fine and has no symptoms.

I had a lung transplant at this clinic. I had a severe form of pulmonary insufficiency, it was becoming increasingly difficult to breathe. From the very beginning, the team of doctors made an impression, they spoke clearly, to the point, without unnecessary promises, but with confidence. The preparation took several months, I felt that everything was under control. The operation went well, then almost three weeks in the hospital. The wards are comfortable, the doctors and nurses are very attentive. The equipment is modern, everything is clean and organized. Now I am undergoing rehabilitation and gradually returning to normal life. I am very grateful to the whole team. Thanks to them, I can breathe normally again.

When I learned of the diagnosis, the world turned upside down. On the advice of my family, I went to Charité. Here, doctors do not just treat - they instill hope. I underwent radiation and chemotherapy, all procedures under careful supervision. The equipment is modern, the care is attentive, like at home. Now I am in remission and am grateful to every doctor who was there.

The doctor was kind, and we discussed the issue. He also performed a few tests before finalizing the procedure. After performing the tests, he suggested LASIK treatment. I was ready for the procedure as my friend shared her experience with me. Everything went well, and I did not experience any pain. Overall, it was a good experience. I followed all the recommendations after the laser treatment. My eyesight improved after six weeks.

Ik bleek corona te hebben. Ik werd op afgelegen kamer gelegd. Eerst infuus Antibiotica . MIijn man mocht niet op de kamer komen, mijn infuus werd niet vernieuwd.. ik kreeg ook mijn medicijnen niet, geen eten en drinken. Pas om 1600 kreeg ik na veel aandringen iets. Ik heb een dwarslaesie met nier en hartproblemen. Belangrijk is dat ik in ieder geval genoeg vocht krijg. De toon van het personeel was heel gebiedend. Als ik vroeg of ik aub mijn telefoon kon krijgen, zeiden ze gewoon dat ze hem niet konden vinden terwijl hij de hele dag zonder eten in wachtkamer zat. Een verpleegkundige liet mij briefje zien wat ze allemaal moest doen terwijl ik haar vroeg om de urine uit de postoel op te ruimen.. Die stond er al de hele dag. Ik ben 17.00 weggevlucht .onze zoon is ons komen ophalen. Zo 'n ziekenhuis vind je in Nederland niet. Ik heb 25 als Radiologisch laborante gewerkt. 2 van de kinderen zijn arts , chirurg en fysiotherapeut. Ik heb veel in ziekenhuizen gelegen maar dit heb ik nog nooit meegemaakt. De toon waarmee men communiceert naar patiënten en bezoekers is beneden ieder peil.

I came to Nordwest Clinic for breast cancer treatment with chemotherapy. Unfortunately, my experience was not the best. Although the doctors seemed qualified, communication was difficult due to insufficient support from the translator, which made it difficult to understand the treatment plan. In addition, additional costs for diagnostics were not discussed in advance, which was an unpleasant surprise. The treatment went well, but the overall impression was negative due to organizational problems.

My daughter was seven years old when we found out that she had thalassemia. We were extremely shocked to know about her disease as it was very dangerous as we heard from everywhere. Her initial reports showed that it was genetically acquired. We were extremely disappointed; however, a friend of mine suggested that I contact coordinators at Clinics On Call. I was not hopeful, but I contacted them one day. They asked about her medical reports and provided them with all the details. After a few hours, they recommended Dr. Rainer at University Hospital Dusseldorf. They arranged our appointment. We took our daughter to the clinic, and the doctor performed diagnostic tests. After thoroughly checking her reports, he suggested a bone marrow transplant as it was the only option with favorable results. The doctor made sure that the procedure was performed with great care and accuracy. The surgery went well due to Dr. Rainer's best approach. He kept her under observation, and after one week, she got discharged. She responded well to the treatment and was recovering slowly. Now its been two years, and she is doing fine. The team at Clinics On Call did an amazing job for us.

Canada:

I consulted Dr. Ralf Buhl for my daughter’s craniotomy surgery. He is an excellent surgeon and attends to his patients warmly. I was very nervous before surgery, but he made me relaxed and ensured a successful outcome. Fortunately, everything went according to plan. My daughter is doing well—all thanks to Dr. Ralf Buhl’s expertise.

CliniconCalls provided excellent service.I was urgently looking for a colonoscopy in Japan or China, and even with just two weeks’ notice, they managed to secure a hospital in China that could perform the procedure. From start to finish, the process was completely transparent. We communicated easily through WhatsApp and WeChat.On top of that, when my son developed a high fever, they helped me locate the nearest hospital and pharmacy, and followed up to check how he was doing afterward.Highly recommended.

I googled health care in a specific city in Mexico where I plan to travel to. Clinics on Call came up with the hospital I was interested in being the only feature, leading me to believe I was dealing with the intake for that specific hospital. They asked for my personal details and said they would contact me in 20 minutes. I gave them a lot of personal information, not knowing they had injected themselves between me and the real provider. I did not know I was dealing with a middle person who in actuality has NOTHING TO DO WITH the hospital I googled. I got an email the next morning saying they are not affiliated with that hospital or any health care provider for the care I was interested in, in that city. 'Dr. Tatyana' said 'she' could arrange for me to go to another country to get care, or another city in Mexico, at 'their clinics' (ya right).I was deceived and would never use this organization."Hello Susan,Thank you for providing such a detailed description of your condition. I sympathize with you. Unfortunately, we do not provide services in this region. Our clinics are only located in Mexicali.We can also offer you this procedure in other countries.If I can be of any further assistance to you, please contact me.Dr. Tatyana Kovbasyuk (M.D)"Doctor-Coordinator

Excellent patient care as I received a response very quickly after sending an enquiry about spinal treatments. The Medical Coordinator who responded to my enquiry was informative, knowledgeable, warm and easy to chat to as I felt listened to and felt involved in decision making suited to my personal circumstances and needs. Hence, I feel like my care is tailored to me as an individual rather than just being a statistic in the books.

Хотим выразить огромную благодарность медицинскому менеджеру Катерине (Clinics on Call). У нашего ребёнка злокачественная опухоль головного мозга, и для нас было критически важно быстро и правильно организовать лечение за рубежом. Катерина помогла подобрать подходящую клинику в Испании, объяснила варианты и расписала шаги простым и понятным языком. На все вопросы отвечала максимально тактично и профессионально, была на связи даже в нерабочее время, помогала с документами, записью к врачам и логистикой.
Отдельно отметим её человечность и поддержку — это очень важно для семьи в такой ситуации. Благодаря её работе мы чувствовали уверенность и спокойствие на каждом этапе. Искренне рекомендуем Катерину и платформу Clinics on Call всем, кому нужна надёжная и внимательная помощь в организации лечения.

Обратились в клинику для поиска лечения для нашей доченьки. С нами связалась Александра.
Она была с нами на каждом этапе — от оформления документов и организации перелёта до поддержки в непростые моменты в больнице. Она всегда на связи, отвечает на все вопросы и помогает найти решения в любых ситуациях.

Для нас это было не просто сопровождение, а искренняя человеческая поддержка, которую невозможно переоценить. Благодаря ей мы чувствовали себя не одни в этой сложной ситуации.

Мне 64 года , я сделала в апреле 2025 года операцию по подтяжке кожи спины и кожи рук , все было организовано очень хорошо , встретили в аэропорту , заселили в отель 4 звезды , который рядом с клиникой . Вечером этого же дня познакомилась с доктором Илкером Манавбаши. Своей улыбкой и теплым рукопожатием он сразу мне понравился и вселил в меня уверенность , что все будет хорошо . Сама операция была на следующий день , все было без меня , проснулась в палате , девушки медсестры ставили капельницы , проверяли мое состояние , утром следующего дня я проснулась полная сил и желания двигаться ) самостоятельно переоделась, и вышла в общий коридор походить , спину тянуло не значительно , все было терпимо , после осмотра доктора меня увезли в гостиницу , разрешили гулять , через 5 дней я улетела в Читу . Сейчас прошло 3 месяца , на спине шрам - тоненькая полосочка под бюстгальтером, все как я хотела ! Огромное спасибо Илкеру Манавбаши. Обязательно посоветую своим знакомым которым не нравится их спина . Еще и талия подтянулась ) , Кстати не было ни какого дискомфорта из-за языкового барьера , всегда была на связи девушка , которая тут же решала любые языковые недопонимания .

I strongly recommend this platform.I asked for help in getting in touch with a good Chinese oncologist.Anna Tyshik- my coordinator - provided me an excellent support from the very beginning. After I sent the request online, it took around 1 hour when she replied, calling me back.She ubnderstood very well my requieements.Anna arranged everything very fast.I did not need to translate the medical documention.She arranged everything for me- around 44 medical reports plus scans.Great job done,no costs for me for the translation..Anna was in touch with me all the time, informing me about the progress.When I could not download huge file with all scans she immediately supported me and sent the ready instruction how to do it.This is customer service on the highest level.I rarely experience this kind of professional attitude in my daily life.The consultation went smoothly.I could send the questions to the doctor before the consultation.I was suprised because I received analysis from the doctors before the consultation and also a summary of the consultation with information about the drug I asked (as a adjuvant for the therapy) during the consultation.Thank you very much to all people involved in this proces especially to Anna.You are great.

I couldn't be happier with the results of my nose! It is as close to perfect as is humanly possible especially considering I was having a botched job fixed. I chose Dr. Yavuz Selim because I was so impressed with his before and after photos. I loved how natural and perfect everyone's noses looked! Also, his experience and credentials are extremely impressive! He is definitely one of the most expensive doctors to go to in Turkey for rhinoplasty, however, he is worth every single penny! He is highly skilled and honestly I believe he's just truly gifted when it comes to fixing noses! I feel like he made my nose as perfect as is humanly possible to make it and after the botched job I got here in Scottsdale Arizona, I will never go to another doctor in the US for plastic surgery. Not to mention I had had botched body work done that I had fixed in Mexico. The US is not as superior as people think it is. And the aftercare is far superior in every other country than it is in the United States, especially when it comes to the aftercare which is almost as important as the procedure if you want the best outcome. The nurse I had overnight in the hospital was so on top of everything it was actually annoying because she came in every hour to put ice on me. I ended up being a really terrible patient and I feel horrible about it and feel like I need to send her some kind of gift or something. I'm going back in July for a facelift so I'll do something to make up for my terrible behavior/ attitude in the hospital. But if you're having any doubts about getting surgery in a foreign country, You really need to get over it. (The doctors know English and they did provide a translator for me for the other things I needed to deal with in the hospital and then I used Google translate with the nurse.) I've been a nurse since 2001 and I know that medicine is universal but the foreign countries where I have had work done, (Mexico and Turkey) have a much higher quality of care and standards than we do in the States. I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that medicine is for profit in the US so there's always an issue with understaffing and that's just not the case in foreign countries because it's socialized medicine which is so much better for the people. The other thing I wanted to address was the fact that the doctor has a wonderful bedside manner. He is so kind and patient and just has good energy in general. And speaking of energy, I felt very much at peace when I was there and I believe a lot of it had to do with the fact that they are so good to the cats there (they're considered to be part of the community and people leave food and water out for them so they don't look like they're strays or feral and they don't act like it) and cats bring so much healing energy. Everything I appreciated about Istanbul is I got the feeling that people who live there just live and let live and mind their own business. Even though it's a Muslim dominant country, women have a choice on whether or not they want to cover their heads. I felt very safe and very much at peace. It's a very lovely city and now I understand why so many people seek out medical treatments in this country.

Many thanks to ClinicsonCall, especially Angelina, for their help. She helped me to find a good doctor and a clinic in Germany in a few days, and organized the examination. Before this, I spent almost a week trying to do this on my own and it was unsuccessful. I highly recommend this company if you don’t want to waste your time and energy.
Thanks a lot!
