Mir ist immer noch übel, ich habe Unwohlsein und erbreche regelmäßig (ein paar Mal pro Woche). Allerdings habe ich bereits eine Menge Gewicht verloren, fast 20 Pfund, dieses Gewicht hätte ich ohne den Ballon jemals verloren. Was sie Ihnen nicht sagen, ist, dass Sie so aufgebläht aussehen, dass es aussieht, als wäre ich schwanger. Meine Erfahrungen unmittelbar nach dem Einsetzen des Ballons waren äußerst schlecht. Mir wurde gesagt, dass dies ein einfacher Eingriff sei und man niemanden bei sich brauche. Das ist falsch, Sie BRAUCHEN jemanden bei sich. Nach dem Eingriff werden Sie das Gefühl haben, zu sterben, Sie können nichts, nicht einmal Wasser, zurückhalten und werfen es sofort wieder weg. Ich ging zurück ins Krankenhaus, checkte mich für einen Tag ein und bezahlte dafür, dass ich mich mit Infusionen versorgen ließ. Das war teuer, ich zahlte fast 800 kanadische Dollar für eine Nacht im Krankenhaus, aber es war notwendig, da ich extrem dehydriert war. Mir wurde gesagt, dass das normal sei (es sei normal), aber der Arzt und der Übersetzer gaben mir das Gefühl, dass ich überreagierte, indem ich im Krankenhaus bleiben wollte. Während meines Aufenthaltes im Krankenhaus habe ich herausgefunden, dass sich auch andere Patienten mit dem Ballon selbst eingecheckt haben. Ich wünschte, sie wären etwas ehrlicher und hätten den Patienten gesagt, dass einige Menschen die ersten paar Tage nicht gut zurechtkommen und dass einige länger im Krankenhaus bleiben Nacht. Allerdings war das Krankenhauspersonal sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Wenn Sie diesen Ballon durchführen lassen möchten, nehmen Sie entweder jemanden mit, der sich einige Tage nach dem Eingriff um Sie kümmert, oder bereiten Sie sich auf die Kosten für einen Krankenhausaufenthalt vor. Buchen Sie Ihren Flug NICHT am nächsten Tag, wie empfohlen. Sie werden sich nicht gut genug fühlen, um zu fliegen. Es dauerte 4 Tage nach dem Eingriff, bis ich mich wieder fit genug fühlte, um fliegen zu können. Vor allem, wenn Sie von einem weit entfernten Ort wie Kanada oder Amerika kommen. Ich würde diese Klinik/dieses Krankenhaus anderen vorziehen, einfach weil es ein Krankenhaus ist. Wenn Sie also über Nacht bleiben müssen, bin ich der Meinung, dass es hier sicherer ist.","en":"I am now a little over one month out. I am still nauseous and have discomfort and I vomit regularly (a few times a week). I have however lost a lot of weight already almost 20 pounds, I would have ever lost this weight without the balloon. Things they don't tell you is that you will look bloated, to the point that it looks like I'm pregnant. My experience immediately after the insertion of the balloon were extremely bad. I was told this was an easy procedure that you don't need anyone with you. This is false you NEED someone with you. After the procedure you will feel like you are dying, you will not be able to hold anything even water down and will immediately throw it back out. I went back to the hospital and checked myself in for a day and paid to have myself hooked up with IVs. This was pricey I paid almost $800 Canadian for one night at the hospital, but it was necessary as I was extremely dehydrated. I was told that this was normal (it is normal) however the doctor and translator made me feel like I was overreacting by wanting to stay at the hospital. During my stay at the hospital I found out other patients with the balloon also checked themselves in. I wish they were a bit more honest, and advised patients that some people do not handle the first few days well and that some stay at the hospital over night. This being said the hospital staff were very kind and attentive.

Januar, durchführen zu lassen. Bis zu dem Moment, als ich meinen Flug gebucht hatte, war die Kommunikation von Bookimed pünktlich, aber direkt nachdem ich ihnen meine Buchungsbestätigung geschickt hatte, hörte ich von niemandem etwas. So hatte ich am Abreisetag noch keine Bestätigung für Hotel, Transfer etc. und musste den Infos weiter hinterherjagen. Offensichtlich kein guter Start für jemanden, der sein Zuhause für einen medizinischen Eingriff im Ausland verlässt! Als ich gegen 5 Uhr morgens am Flughafen Istanbul ankam, musste ich gute 40 Minuten auf meinen Transfer warten, obwohl ich alle meine Fluginformationen schickte und mir gesagt wurde, dass der Fahrer dort auf mich warten würde. Falsch. Das Hotelzimmer war in Ordnung - keine Seife, Shampoo oder funktionierendes Telefon (was überhaupt nicht gut war, da ich während meines gesamten Aufenthalts nicht nach Hilfe rufen konnte). Anfangs bekam ich ein Zweibettzimmer, obwohl ich alleine war und darum bitten musste, es in ein Doppelzimmer umzuwandeln. Die Rezeptionistin zögerte, tat es dann aber, nachdem ich darauf bestanden hatte. Am Tag des Eingriffs war es wirklich chaotisch! Ich kam ins Krankenhaus und war mir nicht sicher, wohin ich gehen sollte, weil mir vorher keine Anweisungen gegeben wurden, was ich zu erwarten hatte, was ich tun und nicht tun sollte ... absolut nichts! Als sie dann jemanden dazu gebracht hatten, mich zu treffen, war alles sehr gehetzt! Verschiedene Personen kamen vorbei, von denen ich wusste, wer sie waren, da sie sich nicht wirklich vorstellten... um mich für verschiedene Dinge unterschreiben zu lassen, eine davon war eine Offenlegung für eine Vollnarkose, von der ich keine Ahnung hatte stattfinden wird, wie niemand jemals erwähnt hatte! Das war mein erster Schock, als ich ins Ausland gereist war, ohne zu wissen, dass ich während des Eingriffs sediert worden wäre. Darauf habe ich mich mental nicht vorbereitet und mich wirklich geärgert, dass ich nicht vorher gewarnt wurde, denn das birgt schon seine eigenen Risiken. Wie auch immer, das Schlimmste kam danach, als der Eingriff abgeschlossen war – ich fühlte mich wirklich schwach, hatte starke Schmerzen (in meinem Bauch) und mir war extrem übel. Auch hier konnte ich nicht verstehen, warum ich so starke Schmerzen hatte, da ich vorher weder gewarnt noch informiert wurde. Also alles eine unangenehme Überraschung. Das Pflegepersonal war nett, konnte aber kein Englisch. Ich fühlte mich aus meinem Zimmer gedrängt, als sie mir klar machten, dass es Zeit für mich war zu gehen, indem sie Zeichen machten und die Tür offen ließen! Aber ich war noch nicht in der Verfassung zu gehen, da es mir nicht gut ging! Die Ernährungsberaterin kam sehr schnell und eilte mit den Informationen zu mir. Sie ging, ohne auch nur ihre Kontaktdaten zu hinterlassen, falls ich Fragen oder Nachsorge haben sollte. Dann kam ein anderer Typ vorbei, um mir die Medikamente zum Mitnehmen zu geben, für die ich bezahlen musste, wieder nicht damit gerechnet, da ich dachte, dass alles inbegriffen war, wurde mir erneut gesagt, ich solle gehen. Ich fragte, ob sich jemand mit mir treffen würde, um die letzten Dinge zu besprechen – er sagte nein. Wow. Ich konnte es gar nicht glauben. Es war nur so: Okay, wir haben jetzt dein Geld, du hast deinen Ballon – los geht’s! Ciao! Ich war nur entsetzt, verärgert und wirklich verängstigt, weil ich mich wirklich unwohl fühlte und niemand da war, der mir helfen konnte. Abschließend ging ich mit viel Mühe allein zurück zum Hotel. Ging ohne funktionierendes Telefon in mein Zimmer und blieb dort für den Rest des Tages und am nächsten Tag allein mit Erbrechen und Magenkrämpfen. Ich habe kein einziges Mal vom Ärzteteam/Krankenhaus oder von jemand anderem als dem Bookimed-Buchungsteam gehört, meine Bewertung abzugeben, also hinterlasse ich hier meine Bewertung. Normalerweise schreibe ich überhaupt keine Rezensionen, da sie so zeitaufwändig sind. Vielleicht hatte ich einfach nur Pech... aber bitte überlegen Sie es sich zweimal, bevor Sie Ihr Geld an diese Leute verschenken und gehen Sie nur dort hin, wenn Sie wirklich keine andere Alternative haben! Meine Schmerzen haben etwas nachgelassen, aber die Schmerzen sind noch fast zwei Wochen nach dem Einsetzen des Ballons vorhanden. und das Erbrechen auch, also muss ich über das Wochenende in die Notaufnahme, um mich richtig untersuchen zu lassen, da ich kein medizinisches Team habe, das mich berät oder irgendeine Form von Nachsorge leistet. Ich habe wirklich Angst. Würde ich das Bookimed/ Hisar Hospital empfehlen? Absolut, 100%, nein!","en":"I departed for my procedure on Friday night to have it done on Saturday morning 20th January. Up until the moment I booked my flight - the communication from Bookimed was on point, but straight after I sent them my booking confirmation, I didn't hear anything from anyone. So on the day of departing, I still had no confirmation for the hotel, transfer, etc. and had to keep chasing for the information. Not a good start obviously, for someone who is leaving their home for a medical procedure abroad!\r\n\r\nWhen I arrived in Istanbul airport around 5 am - I had to wait a good 40 minutes for my transfer, although sending all my flight information and being told that the driver was going to be there waiting for me. Incorrect.\r\n\r\nThe hotel room was ok- no soap, shampoo or working phone, (which was not good at all, as I couldn't ring for any assistance after during my whole stay). Initially I was given a twin room, although being on my own so had to ask to change it to a double bedded room. The receptionist was hesitant, but then did it after I insisted. \r\n\r\nOn the day of the procedure- it was really messy! I got to the hospital and wasn't sure where to go, because no instructions were given to me beforehand of what to expect, dos and don'ts... absolutely nothing! Then once they got someone to meet me, everything was all very rushed! Different individuals came by, which I did know who they were as they didn't really introduce themselves... to make me sign for different things, one of them being a disclosure for going through a general anesthetics, which I had no idea was going to take place as no one had ever mentioned! \r\n\r\nThat was my first shock as I had travelled abroad, not knowing I would have been under sedation during the procedure. I didn't prepare myself mentally for that and was really annoyed I was not warned in advance, as that in itself carries its own risks.\r\n\r\nAnyway, the worst came afterwards, once the procedure had been done- I felt really weak, in severe pain (in my stomach) and extremely nauseous. Again, I couldn't understand why I was in so much pain as I was not warned nor given any information beforehand. So all an unpleasant surprise. The nursing staff were nice, but couldn't' speak English. \r\nI felt rushed out of my room as they made it clear it was time for me to go, by making signs and leaving the door open! But I was in no condition to go yet, as I wasn't well! \r\n\r\nThe nutritionist came really quickly and rushed the information to me. She left without even leaving her contact details should I have any questions or for any aftercare.\r\n\r\nThen another guy came along to to give me the medication to take with me, which I had to pay for , again not expecting it as I thought all was included, I was told again to go.\r\n\r\nI asked if anyone was meeting me to go over the final things- he said no. Wow. I could not believe it. It was just like: okay, we have your money now, you've got your balloon- off you go! Ciao! \r\n\r\nI was just appalled, upset and really scared actually, because I felt really unwell and there was no one there to assist.\r\n\r\nTo conclude, I walked back to the hotel alone with a lot of struggle. Went up to my room, with no working phone and stayed there for the rest of that day and the following day vomiting and with cramps in my stomach, alone. \r\n\r\nI have not once heard from the medical team/ hospital once or anyone other than the Bookimed booking team to leave my review, so here I am leaving my review.\r\n\r\nI don't normally write reviews at all as they are so time consuming... but on this instance I really felt I ought to on this occasion due to my awful experience and to warn people of the potential consequences. Maybe, I was just unlucky... but please think about it twice before giving your money away to these people and only go there if you really have no other alternative! \r\n\r\nMy pain has subsided slightly, but the pain is still present almost two weeks after having the balloon inserted. and the vomiting also, so I will need to go to A&E over the weekend to get myself checked out properly as I have no medical team advising me or providing any form of after care. I am really scared.\r\n\r\nWould I recommend Bookimed/ Hisar Hospital ?
